PCIe2 FH 4-Port 8 Gb Fibre Channel Adapter (FC 5729; CCIN 5729)
Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) 5729 adapter.
Overview
The PCIe2 FH 4-Port 8 Gb Fibre Channel Adapter (FC 5729) is a high-performance adapter based on the
Emulex LPe12004 PCIe Host Bus Adapter (HBA). FC 5729 is a generation-2 adapter and is supported on
systems that support the generation-2 adapters. The adapter provides four Fibre Channel ports. Each
Fibre Channel port provides single initiator capability over a fibre link. The ports have LC type
connectors and use shortwave laser optics. The adapter connects to Fibre Channel switches and operates
at link speeds of 2, 4, and 8 Gbps. The adapter automatically negotiates with the switch to the highest
speed of which the switch is capable. LEDs on each port provide information about the status and link
speed of the port.
