HBA Features and Specifications
The board interfaces an eight-lane PCI Express bus, with eight lanes supporting two Fibre
Channel (FC) ports. Each independent FC port operates at 16 Gb/sec and features 16/8/4
autonegotiation.
See
Table 1, “HBA Features and Specification,” on page 10
for a list of the HBA features.
