- Data protection features
- End-to-end data protection with hardware parity, CRC, ECC and other advanced error checking and correcting algorithms ensure data is safe from corruption.
- Deployment and management features
- Universal Boot capability allows the appropriate boot environment to be automatically selected for any given hardware.
- Boot from SAN capability reduces system management costs and increases uptime.
- Detailed real-time event logging and tracing enables quick diagnosis of SAN problems.
- Beaconing feature flashes the HBA LEDs, simplifying their identification within server racks.
- Environmental monitoring feature helps to optimize SAN availability
Management Features
- The Emulex OneCommand Manager application enables centralized discovery, monitoring, reporting, and administration of Emulex adapters on local and remote hosts. Powerful automation capabilities facilitate remote driver parameter, firmware and boot code upgrades. Advanced diagnostic features such as adapter port beaconing and adapter statistics help to optimize management and network performance while the environmental monitoring feature helps to maintain optimum host to fabric connections. In addition to the GUI interface, management functions can also be performed via a scriptable Command Line Interface (CLI) as well as a web browser. With in-band and out-of-band management capabilities, Emulex provides data center administrators with the greatest level of management flexibility.
- OneCommand Manager supports role-based management to facilitate administration of adapters throughout the data center without compromising security. Management privileges can be assigned based on LDAP and AD group memberships.
- Emulex’s management instrumentation complies to Open Management Standards, such as SMI-S and common HBA API support, which enables seamless upward integration into enterprise storage and server management solutions.

ESD Safety
ElectroStatic field will build up on every insulator
Sources of ElectroStatic are ions from air and friction between two insulators.
Carpet, rag, plastic, synthetic fabric (clothing), wool is known source of ElectroStatic
ElectroStatic Discharge is ALWAYS damaging electronics
ESD sensitive device should not be placed in proximity of any sources of ElectroStatic
ESD sensitive device should be protected at all times by storing it in ESD bag or original packaging
Seller will always use Grounded WristStrap while handling ESD sensitive devices
Seller will always minimize time, when ESD sensitive device is not fully protected from ESD
Ground yourself - either by touching earth directly or indirectly
Wear properly earthed WristStrap or AnkleStrap
Touch ground / soil. Ground should be humid to increase conductivity
Touch earthed part of electric device.
Touch ESD bag FIRST
All items involved in any procedure in which ESD sensitive device is involved should be earthed first in order to equalize potentials
ALWAYS keep this device in ESD bag unless you are using it.
This device should never be handled on carpet, rag, syntetic fabric or partly syntetic fabric, wool or any insulator as this may be potential source of ESD.
Most of fabrics (clothing) is source of ESD too.
Only non-synthetic (like cotton) fabrics are ESD safe.
Wool is not ESD safe and should never be in proximity to ESD sensitive devices.
It is enough to bring source of ESD in proximity of ESD sensitive device in order to damage it.
Damage may be undetectable, but may cause intermittent errors.
All devices delivered in ESD bag are ESD sensitive
Custom Duty (non-EU Buyers only) and USA Buyers

Seller does not charge Custom Duty
Buyer can pay Custom Duty checking out and shipping by Global Shipping Programme.
All the Global Shipping Programme shipping cost is paid directly to Pitney Bowes.
Pitney Bowes will handle your shipping and Custom Duty.
