General Description
Thank you for selecting the QLA22xx Fibre Channel (FC) board. The QLA22xx
board is an intelligent, high-performance, DMA bus master host adapter designed
for high-end systems. The intelligence and performance are derived from the
ISP22xx chips, making the QLA22xx board a leading-edge host adapter. The
ISP22xx combines a powerful RISC processor, a fibre protocol module (FPM) with
gigabit transceivers, and a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) local bus
interface in a single-chip solution. The QLA22xx board supports all FC peripherals
