The 2 Gb/s Ready FibreStar FCE-6460 is the 2nd generation 2 Gb/s Fiber Channel host bus adapter from JNI Corporation. It offers the same reliability as the industry's first 2 Gb/s Fiber Channel HBA, the FCE-6420D. The 2 Gb/s Ready FCE-6460 features "on-demand" 1 or 2 Gb/s auto rate negotiation. This enables the 2 Gb/s Ready HBA to operate in 1 Gb/s or 2 Gb/s storage networks, or networks with a mix of 1 and 2 Gb/s devices. Automatic topology detection simplifies configuration for switched fabric, arbitrated loop or point-to-point environments.??The 2 Gb/s Ready FCE-6460 has a peak performance throughput of 400 MB/s (full-duplex), and has a half-duplex throughput of nearly 200 MB/s. In addition, the FCE-6460 features hardware-assisted context switching, which maximizes SAN data throughput and minimizes host CPU utilization, increasing overall SAN performance. The FCE-6460 offers several new features, including packet-by-packet support for concurrent IP/SCSI and FC-Tape protocols. IP... Minimize
