IBM Redbooks Product Guide
As server virtualization technology becomes more prevalent within data centers, more dynamic
performance is needed for network bandwidth to satisfy these demands. The Emulex 10GbE Virtual
Fabric Adapters II and III for IBM® System x® can help you break the I/O bottleneck by allowing you to
allocate bandwidth where it’s needed, delivering maximum application agility. Offering a full range of
virtualization and convergence capabilities, the same network hardware offers Ethernet, iSCSI, or Fibre
Channel over Ethernet with bandwidth that is allocated in increments from 100 Mb to 10 Gb. The
next-generation Virtual Fabric Adapter for IBM System x is a fast, flexible, easy, and reliable solution for
I/O virtualization.

Did you know
With IBM Virtual Fabric, up to eight virtual network ports (vNICs) can be created with a single two-port 10
GbE network adapter. Converged protocols such as iSCSI and FCoE are also supported on selected
configurations. By using a common infrastructure for Ethernet and SAN, and by virtualizing your network
adapter, you can reduce your infrastructure capital expense.
