Lenovo ThinkSystem Emulex LPe32002 V2 - host bus adapter - PCIe 4.0 x8 - 32Gb Fibre Channel Gen 7 (Short Wave) x 2

Lenovo's Emulex LPe35000 Gen 7 Fiber Channel (FC) Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) by Broadcom are designed for demanding mission-critical workloads and emerging applications. Applications continue to grow and, to support them, enterprises are turning to new server technologies that contain hundreds of processor cores as well as high-performance storage solutions including low-latency NVMe, all-flash arrays (AFAs).

NVMe can significantly increase the performance of storage area networks (SANs), making the selection of high-speed networking technology the critical element for achieving maximum system-wide performance. Fiber Channel is purpose-built for storage networks, meeting the requirements for high availability, scalability, predictable performance and low latency.

Compared to the previous generation, Emulex Gen 7 FC HBAs offer up to 2x higher bandwidth, 3x better latency, enhanced security, and operational efficiency for 32GFC SANs.
