HPFC-5400
HPFC-5400 is Tachyon DX2 Dual Channel Fibre Channel IC manufactured by Agilent Technologies.
Overview
..
- 4K on chip boot RAM
- Supports fabric, point-to-point (N_Port) and loop (Public and Private) topologies
- Optional external boot ROM/Flash (128K Bytes)
- Eight full-frame inbound buffers and four full-frame outbound buffers per FC channel
Product Description
The Tachyon DX2 is a highperformance PCI/PCI-X native dual 1 and 2 gigabit/sec Fibre Channel controller for host bus adapters and embedded subsystems. DX2 is the fourth member of the Agilent Technologies family of Fibre Channel interface controllers. It provides the performance enhancing features of PCI-X and is a single chip solution that offers the most economical ponent cost savings. The DX2 interfaces directly to an industry standard PCI/PCI-X bus. Each channel can be independently configured to use either an HSPI-patible 10-bit external SERDES or to use the internal SERDES.
Features
