Celerity FC-41EL Adapter
The Celerity FC-41EL is a single-channel host
adapter. With 4-Gb FC speeds of up to 800 MB/sec.,
the FC-41EL supports the most demanding application
requirements.
The FC-41EL takes advantage of the latest in host
interconnect technology, PCI Express, a serial, high-
speed connection that supports aggregate throughout
up to 2 GB/sec.full-duplex. The FC-41EL is software
compatible with existing PCI and PCI-X products
using the same device drivers as other Celerity FC
family products, simplifying user installation and
support. It is backward compatible with existing 2-Gb
and 1-Gb FC infrastructures, protecting existing
technology investments.
