CONNECTIVITY
Overview
Emulex dual port 10Gb Ethernet (10GbE) Integrated
FlexFabric Adapters are available as a converged
Universal LAN on Motherboard (ULOM) for HP c-Class
ProLiant G7 BladeSystems:
n
NC551i - BL685c and BL465c ProLiant AMD G7
blade servers
n
NC553i - BL460c and BL490c ProLiant Intel G7
blade servers
Based on the Emulex OneConnect
Universal
Converged Network Adapter (UCNA) technology, these
integrated adapters support Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and Fibre Channel
over Ethernet (FCoE) or accelerated iSCSI connectivity
concurrently with high-performance protocol offloads
that optimize server efficiency and maximize server
virtualization ratios.
Emulex OneConnect UCNA technology fully
supports HP’s FlexFabric Converged Infrastructure,
a next-generation, highly scalable data center
fabric architecture and a technology layer in the
HP Converged Infrastructure architecture. The
combination of HP’s new ProLiant G7 server
blades with Emulex UCNA technology and the new
HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric module simplifies,
consolidates and virtualizes the server edge for HP
BladeSystem customers.
Optimized Network Connectivity
Lower costThe HP FlexFabric adapters can save
up to 98% on adapter cards, switch ports, and cables
needed to support network and storage traffic.
Lower power and coolingThe HP FlexFabric
adapters can reduce the number of adapter cards
and switches, resulting in savings up to 40% for
power and cooling.
