Chelsio’s multi-port 1 Gigabit Ethernet adapters are optimized for storage applications. The third-generation technology from Chelsio provides the highest 1GbE performance available and dramatically lowers host-system CPU communications overhead.
With on-board hardware that offloads TCP/IP, iSCSI, and iWARP RDMA processing from its host system, the adapters free up hostCPUcycles for useful applications. The system achieves increased bandwidth, lower latency, and lower power.
The adapters accelerate the iSCSI protocol for block-level storage traffic between servers and storage systems. For more info on Chelsio’s iSCSI solution, please go to our website atwww.chelsio.com.
The adapters’ multiple ports and IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation/ failover features are ideal for critical network applications that require redundancy and high-availability capabilities.
<b>The ‘UnifiedWire’Solution</b>
With these adapters, Chelsio is delivering on the promise of the ‘unified wire,’ enabling the convergence of server networking, storage networking, and cluster computing interconnects onto a single platform and a single fabric.
1Gb Ethernet-only networking reduces the data center’s cost in network adapters, cables, switches, rack space, power, equipment spares, management tools, planning, networking skills, and installation.
