LSI Logic is a leader in the industry because of our engineering expertise and ability to combine a variety of I/O functions on a single Host Adapter. These functions include; SCSI, Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Video, and Fibre Channel. Providing users with as many as seven I/O functions on a single adapter, LSI allows users to conserve PCI slots, improve system reliability, and maximize port density.
•Low profile host adapters - LSI Logic introduced the first
rackmount servers. The family of HBAs includes Ultra SCSI, Ultra2 SCSI, Ultra160 SCSI, Ultra320 SCSI, and Fibre Channel to meet
the needs of server designers and system integrators.
•Dual channel SCSI and Fibre Channel adapters - Dual channel boards are designed for enterprise servers that feature two high performance
channels. These boards handle heavy I/O requirements in
•Single channel SCSI and Fibre Channel adapters for workstations and
•Internal legacy SCSI adapters for servers, tape
•External legacy SCSI adapters for peripheral attach.
•Multi-function and combination adapters
– You will find that line of our adapters enable users to achieve the highest levels of overall system performance while conserving valuable PCI slots by placing numerous functions on one board.
