1. Introduction
This manual describes the Emulex
®
OneConnect™ OCe14000-series of multi-protocol
PCI-Express adapters for 10 and 40 Gigabit/sec (Gb/s) Enhanced Ethernet (EE) fabric.
Emulex adapters provide ethernet networking and iSCSI functionality, as well as Fibre
Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) functionality for convergence of Fibre Channel (FC)
traffic onto 10 Gigabit EE fabric.
The OCe14000-series adapters include single port (OCe14101) and dual port
(OCe14102) 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) to PCI Express adapters and a single port, 40GbE
to PCI Express adapter (OCe14401).
The single port 10 Gb/s OCe14101 and 40 Gb/s OCe14401 adapters support Ethernet
networking functionality only.
The OCe14102 is available with ethernet networking functionality, or as a full-featured
universal converged network adapter (UCNA) that supports NIC, iSCSI, and FCoE.
All Emulex adapters support NIC single root I/O virtualization (SR-IOV) and are full3y
compliant to the PCI Express CEM Specification Rev. 3.0/2.0/1.1. UCNAs combine two
major functional components: a 10 Gigabit networking MAC and an FC IOC to
interface with a unified lossless Ethernet switch. Adapters serve as a common interface
for both storage and IP traffic retaining familiar FC and networking software stacks, OS
drivers, and management. The supported PCIe connector is an x8.
Illustrations in this manual are only examples. The actual hardware may vary.
