Compared to Gen 5 FC, the QLogic Enhanced Gen 5 FC solution offers higher per-port performance (up to 650K IOPS) with low power consumption. In addition, QLogic StorFusion technology delivers streamlined provisioning, QoS, and improved resiliency while addressing the needs of IT organizations that require reliability, integrated management, and guaranteed network performance. Enhanced Gen 5 FC technology resolves data center complexities by enabling a storage network infrastructure that supports powerful virtualization features, application-aware services, and simplified management. The QLE2692 adapters provide advanced storage networking features capable of supporting the most demanding virtualized and private cloud environments while fully leveraging the capabilities of high-performance 16GFC and all-flash arrays (AFAs). Powerful management tools automate and simplify SAN provisioning to help reduce cost and complexity, while the unmatched 16GFC performance eliminates potential I/O bottlenecks in today's powerful multiprocessor, multicore servers.
The QLE2692 adapters can accelerate mission-critical enterprise applications by delivering up to 1.3million IOPS for physical, virtual, and private cloud environments. QLogic adapters deliver the best storage application performance in virtualized and non-virtualized environments with support for over 650K I/O transactions per-second per-port.
