PCIe3 4-port (10 Gb FCoE and 1 GbE) Copper and RJ45 Adapter (FC EL3C, FC EL57, FC EN0K, and FC EN0L; CCIN 2CC1)
Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) EL3C, EL57, EN0K, or EN0L adapters.
Overview
The FC EL3C and FC EN0L are low-profile adapters. The FC EL57 and FC EN0K are regular-height adapters that are low-profile capable.
The PCIe3 4-port (10 Gb FCoE and 1 GbE) Copper and RJ45 Adapter is a PCI Express (PCIe) generation 3 adapter. The adapter has four-ports and is a Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) converged network adapter (CNA). This adapter provides a PCIe 3.0 host bus interface. The adapter is a high-performance adapter that consolidates traffic for networking and Fibre Channel storage. The adapter is optimized for cloud computing, virtualization, storage, and other data center applications. The 10 Gb ports have the CNA (both the NIC and the FCoE) functionality. The 1 Gb ports have the Ethernet capability. Use of the FCoE requires that you use convergence enhanced Ethernet (CEE) switches. The link aggregation and failover features of the adapter make it suitable for critical network applications that require redundancy and high availability.
The regular-height adapter is Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) capable. The adapter can function as a boot adapter. The adapter supports all Fibre Channel and Ethernet topologies.
- The adapter supports all Fibre Channel and Ethernet topologies.
- The 10 Gb SFP+ ports can function in the NIC or FCoE mode.
