3 ATTO Technology Inc. Celerity FC Host Adapters Installation and Operation Manual
Celerity FC-41ES Adapter
The Celerity FC-41ES is a single-channel host
adapter providing support for the most demanding
application requirements. With 4-Gb FC speeds of
up to 800 MB/sec. per channel, the FC-41ES is a
cost effective connectivity solution for
environments requiring maximum throughput.
The FC-41ES also takes advantage of the latest in
host interconnect technology: PCI Express, a
serial, high-speed connection that supports
aggregate throughput up to 1 GB/sec. (x4 PCIe).
The FC-41ES is software compatible with existing
PCI and PCI-X products using the same device
drivers as other Celerity FC products, simplifying
user installation and support. It is backward
compatible with existing 2-Gb and 1-Gb Fibre
Channel infrastructure, protecting existing
technology investments.
