- 57.8 Gbps data transfer rate for high-speed connectivity
- Supports a wide range of Fiber Channel standards for versatile networking options
- Full duplex capability enhances data transmission efficiency
- Supports Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) for improved performance
- Capable of delivering up to 10 million IOPS for reliable and smooth operation
A combination of next-generation 64G Fibre Channel and PCIe 4.0 technology can provide dramatic improvements in application data throughput. Broadcom commissioned Tolly to benchmark the performance of the new Lenovo ThinkSystem Emulex LPe36002 Gen 7 FC HBA in terms of raw performance and compare to existing 32G FC HBAs. The adapter demonstrated dual-port performance in excess of 11 million IOPS. Running relational database transaction benchmarks, the adapter effectively doubled the performance by dramatically cutting run times. Similarly, the adapter leveraged PCIe 4.0 technology to increase application throughput by 67% compared to PCIe 3.0 servers.
