Data Sheet

Overview

the 8300 Series adapters are QLogic’s fourth generation of Converged Network adapters, supporting simultaneous LaN (tCP/IP)
and SaN (Fibre Channel over ethernet (FCoe) and iSCSI) traffic at line rate, 10Gbps ethernet (Gbe) speeds—at extremely low CPU
usage with full hardware offloads. this extreme performance eliminates potential I/O bottlenecks in today’s powerful multiprocessor,
multicore servers.

In addition, support for powerful virtualization features makes this adapter ideal for virtualized environments that need excellent I/O performance
to service growing numbers of virtual machines (VMs). the ability to support multiple protocols simultaneously on the same hardware offers
multi-tenancy flexibility, which is ideal for private and public cloud environments.
