Qlogic QLA2344
The QLA2344 is a PCI interface card manufactured by Qlogic. We gathered information from several on-line sources and complied it here. We hope you find it helpful. If you have any more useful information about this product, please let us know so we can add it to this site.
Overview:
Designed and deployed by major server and storage OEMs, the QLogic SANblade QLA2344 host bus adapters (HBAs) offer four independent channels of 2-Gbps Fibre Channel combined with 64-bit, 133-MHz PCI-X.Cost Effective:
With the union of the fastest I/O and host technologies, the QLA2344 eliminates traditional host bottlenecks that impede the high performance of 2-Gbps Fibre Channel. For the most scalable solution that maximizes connectivity and PCI/PCI-X slot usage while maintaining a cost effective price per port, the QLA2344 is the ultimate choice.Investment Protection:
Designed for high-connectivity applications, the SANblade QLA2344 is ideal in the slot-limited environment of PCI-X. With four fibre channel ports on one board in one slot, along with performance that scales as channels are added, the QLA2344 offers more channel and device connectivity while lowering overall system port cost.Broad OEM Acceptance:
QLogic FC technology and software is validated by every major OEM including Dell, EMC, HDS, HP, IBM, and Sun. The QLA2344's extensive certification from major server and storage manufacturers makes it the perfect choice for multiplatform requirements.Easy Managment:
The QLogic SANsurfer Management Suite™ is available free of charge. This software set simplifies management by making setup, configuration, and maintenance easy, along with features such as remote management, load balancing, failover, and target persistent binding. In addition, the easy to use SANblade Control FX wizard-based application is available on Windows™, Linux . , and Solaris . operating systems. SANblade Control FX provides simple, local host initialization, configuration, and diagnostic functions. The QLA2344 is also fully compatible with management applications that support the SNIA API, allowing IT managers to reduce HBA management time and lower their total cost of ownership.
Proven Architecture:
The QLA2344 architecture is the result of more than 15 years of progressive development and testing. Proven architecture from QLogic delivers higher overall reliability and enables advanced functionality with its single-chip integration, placing QLogic years ahead of its competitors. The QLA2344 also has proven interoperability with all major software applications, hardware platforms, and operating systems.
