QME2462 Fibre Channel HBA. The QME2462 enables 2-Gbps Fibre
Channel in Dell PowerEdge blade servers. The QME2462 not only delivers
unprecedented levels of performance and availability, but also intelligent
networking features specific to enterprise class data centers.
Enterprise Class Features. The QME2462 delivers unmatched performance
by leveraging a single ASIC design,combining a unique hardware architecture
to deliver over 300,000 IOPS, nearly 800 MBps overall throughput, and
support for PCI Express x4 bus speeds. More importantly, the QME2462
HBA provides new intelligent storage networking features that redefine the
enterprise class HBA, providing increased data protection, advanced frame
routing, and enterprise wide management capabilities.
Simplified Setup. Point-and-click installation and configuration wizards
simply the HBA setup process. Storage administrators can quickly deploy
HBAs across a SAN using QLogic SANsurfer HBA management tools and
device utilities. The QME2462 is also fully compliant with industry standard
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), including SNIA HBA API and
SMI-S. This compatibility allows administrators to manage QLogic HBAs
using third-party software applications.
Comprehensive Operating System Support. QME2462 drivers exist for all
operating systems supported by Dell PowerEdge blade servers. A single
driver strategy per OS allows storage administrators to easily deploy and
manage HBAs in heterogeneous SAN configurations. In addition, QLogic’s
unique unified driver model, whereby firmware is bundled with the driver,
eliminates any potential interoperability issues between the driver and
firmware and reduces the number of software components to be managed.
Guaranteed Interoperability. Storage partner certifications, combined with
agency and regulatory testing, ensures all products meet world compliance
hardware and software specifications. All HBAs are tested extensively with
third-party hardware, along with multiple software applications, to ensure
best-in-class SAN interoperability and compatibility. You can be confident
purchasing QLogic HBAs to meet your FC storage networking needs.
