Features
Chelsio is enabling a unified wire for LAN, SAN, and cluster traffic. This unified wire was made possible by
the high bandwidth and low latency of 10GbE combined with storage and cluster protocols operating over
TCP/IP (iSCSI, FCoE, and iWARP, respectively). In parallel, operating systems and hypervisors have
incorporated native support for iSCSI, and database applications now support file-based storage
protocols such as NFS as an alternative to SANs. Expanding its unified wire approach, Chelsio has added
Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) hardware support to the new T4-based adapters. FCoE provides a
transition path from legacy SANs to converged networks.
