QLogic 8442 - Network adapter - PCIe 3.0 x8 low profile - 10 Gigabit SFP+ x 2 - for UCS SmartPlay Select C220 M4, SmartPlay Select C240 M4L, SmartPlay Select C240 M4SX
- PCI Express Gen3 x8 support
- Full line-rate performance across both ports
- Broad OS and hypervisor support
- Network boot support
- Switch-independent NIC partitioning with up to four partition assignments per 10GbE link
- PCI-SIG single root input/output virtualization
- Comprehensive stateless offloads
The QLogic FastLinQ 8400 series converged network adapters support simultaneous LAN and SAN traffic at 10Gbps Ethernet line rate speeds. The 8400 series provides extremely low host CPU usage by enabling full hardware offloads. The 8400 series provide high levels of performance, efficiency, and scalability for the enterprise data center. For more effective utilization of the 10GbE bandwidth, the QLogic FastLinQ 8400 series converged network adapters offer switch-independent NIC partitioning, which enables segmentation of a single 10GbE port into multiple network partitions and dynamic allocation of bandwidth to each port. The segmentation allows IT organizations to optimize resource utilization while lowering infrastructure and operational costs. The QLogic FastLinQ 8400 series converged network adapters are the solution of choice for workload-intensive computing environments, providing a reliable, high-performance 10GbE connectivity solution.
