Each Ultra320 SCSI host adapter offers SureLINK Domain Validation technology to ensure data integrity by intelligently validating the compatibility of the SCSI domain. These adapters also utilize Fusion-MPT architecture that allows for thinner drivers and better performance.

3.3 Technical Specifications

The design and implementation of the Ultra320 SCSI host adapters minimize electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to radio frequency energy, and the effects of electrostatic discharge. The adapter carries the CE mark, C-Tick mark, FCC Self-Certification logo, Canadian Compliance Statement, Korean MIC, Taiwan BSMI, Japan VCCI, and meets the requirements of CISPR Class B.

3.3.1 Electrical Characteristics

Table 3.3 lists the maximum power requirements for standard Ultra320 SCSI host adapters, including SCSI TERMPWR, under normal operation.
