Dual Fibre Channel Adapter |
|
(Not recommended for new designs) |
PDF print version of this specification :

or Letter |
The Dual Fibre Channel (FC) Adapter offers dual 1/2/4 Gbit/s FC communication
links on multimode or singlemode fibre media (frontpanel I/O PMC adapter), or
dual 1 Gbit/s FC links over copper (backplane I/O Conduction-Cooled PMC
adapter). This adapter provides optimal flexibility by supporting all Fibre
Channel topologies, including Arbitrated Loop, with full duplex communications
on both channels. It is available in the following industry standard compliant
formfactors :
- PMC (IEEE Std 1386.1-2001)
- Conduction-Cooled PMC (CCPMC) (ANSI/VITA 20-2001)
Architecture
The Dual Fibre Channel Adapter uses a highly integrated ASIC with embedded RISC
processors to handle all protocol processing and data transfers. This reduces
overhead on the host processor, thus providing higher network data throughput.
Data transfers from the adapter are controlled independently using single
channel Bus Mastering or Scatter Gather Mode.
On the frontpanel I/O PMC adapter dual 4 Gbit/s SFF optical transceivers are
used, providing reliable, high speed and long distance connectivity. Both
channels independently support autonegotiation down to 1 or 2 Gbit/s, allowing for
the integration of legacy and next generation devices.
The backplane I/O Conduction-Cooled PMC adapter provides dual Fibre Channel
links over copper media at a fixed link speed of 1 Gbit/s per channel.
The adapter’s Integrated Link Controller is Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL-2 R7.0)
compliant and performs all Link operations. The Internal Controller monitors the
Link State and strictly adheres to the Loop Port State Machine, ensuring maximum
system interoperability.
