QLogic 8Gb Switches -- Transforming Network Connectivity into Competitive Advantage
QLogic SANbox(r) technology delivers next-generation 8Gb Fibre Channel performance with built-in simplicity for new mid-market or enterprise SAN deployments. The HP StorageWorks 8/20q Fibre Channel Switch is based on this technology and is part of the HP StorageWorks 8Gb Simple SAN Connection Kit.
QLogic 8Gb Adapters -- Transforming Server Connectivity into Competitive Advantage
The QLogic 2500 Series of 8Gb Fibre Channel-to-PCIe Gen2 adapters are designed for next-generation virtualized data centers with powerful multi-processor, multi-core servers. The HP StorageWorks 82Q dual-port 8Gb Fibre Channel adapters are based on this technology and are optimized for virtualization, power, RAS (reliability, availability, serviceability), security and management, transforming server connectivity into a competitive advantage. QLogic 2500 Series Fibre Channel adapters provide complete investment protection by maintaining backward compatibility with previous Fibre Channel network and PCIe host bus speeds, and feature two breakthrough innovations under the QLogic Star Power(tm) Green Initiative -- Dynamic Power Management and Cool HBA(tm) technologies. Dynamic Power Management gives the QLogic 2500 the unique ability to sense the type of PCI Express bus that is present and consume only the amount of power necessary to run at full speed. QLogic Cool HBA technology enables QLogic products like 2500 adapters to operate without any air flow, unlike competitive products which require fans in order to run cool.
