OVERVIEW  
The QLogic
®
 FastLinQ
TM
 8400 Series iSCSI Network Adapters—available in 
10GBASE-T (RJ45) and direct attach copper (DAC)/SFP+ optics—support 
simultaneous LAN (TCP/IP) and SAN (iSCSI) traffic at 10Gbps Ethernet 
(GbE) line-rate speeds. The 8400 Series provides extremely low host CPU 
usage by enabling full hardware offloads.
The 8400 Series leverages QLogic’s long-standing industry leadership in 
Ethernet by providing the highest levels of performance, efficiency, and 
scalability for the enterprise data center.
For more effective utilization of the 10GbE bandwidth, the QLogic FastLinQ 
8400 Series iSCSI Network Adapters offer switch-independent NIC 
partitioning (NPAR), which enables segmentation of a single 10GbE port 
into multiple network partitions and dynamic allocation of bandwidth to 
each port. The segmentation allows IT organizations to optimize resource 
utilization while lowering infrastructure and operational expenses (OPEX).
The acceleration of data center convergence—triggered by virtualization, 
software-defined networking (SDN), and multitenant cloud computing 
platforms—demands high-performance, converged network solutions. 
The QLogic FastLinQ 8400 Series iSCSI Network Adapters are the solution 
of choice for workload-intensive computing environments, providing a 
reliable, high-performance 10GbE connectivity solution. 
The 8400 Series support IEEE 1588 precision timing protocol (PTP) 
providing a method of synchronization between 
master and slave clocks 
over a LAN.
