Features
The LP1050DC host bus adapter offers a highly integrated 2Gb/s Fibre Channel HBA
for use in servers based on either the conventional PCI or PCI-X 1.0a expansion bus
architectures. The LP1050DC delivers exceptional performance through the use of a
sixth generation Emulex Thor controller. The Thor high-performance controller is a
highly integrated dual-channel device that combines industry standard embedded
ARM9 processors, 1Gig/2Gig SERDES and protocol technology into a single module.
The LP1050DC is a dual-channel HBA in a low-profile PCI (MD2) compliant card
format.
