Celerity FC-42ES Adapter

The Celerity FC-42ES is a dual-channel host adapter providing port density for Enterprise server and workstation applications. With 4-Gb FC speeds of up to 800 MB/sec. per channel, the FC-42ES supports the most demanding application requirements.

Additionally the FC-42ES takes advantage of the latest in host interconnect technology, PCI Express, a serial, high-speed connection that supports aggregate throughput up to 4 GB/sec. (x8 PCIe) full-duplex. The FC-42ES 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 Fibre Channel infrastructure, protecting existing technology.
