Dual 1 Gbps Fibre Channel over Copper PMC Adapter

PDF print version of this specification : A4 or Letter

The Dual 1 Gbps Fibre Channel (FC) PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) Adapter offers dual 1 Gbps Fibre Channel communication links on shielded, twisted-pair copper media. This adapter provides optimal flexibility by supporting all Fibre Channel topologies, including Arbitrated Loop, with full duplex communications on both channels. It is available in conduction-cooled (CC) and air-cooled versions : ruggedised, industrial and commercial.

Architecture

The Dual 1 Gbps FC PMC Adapter uses an embedded RISC processor to handle all the protocol processing and data transfers. This reduces overhead on the host processor, thus providing higher network data throughputs. Data transfers from the adapter are controlled independently using single channel Bus Mastering or Scatter Gather Mode.

Arbitrated Loop Support : The Dual 1 Gbps FC PMC Adapter’s Integrated Link Controller is Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL-2 R7.0) compliant and performs all Link operations. The Internal Controller monitors the Link State and strictly adheres to the Loop Port State Machine, ensuring maximum system interoperability.
