Chelsio Communications, this week is demonstrating the high performance and flexibility of its T4 Unified Wire Adapters by showing concurrent iSCSI and FCoE traffic between two servers. The demonstration will be shown this week at the Chelsio booth (#616) at SNW Fall 2011, in Orlando, Florida.
A key differentiating feature of the T4 10Gb Ethernet adapters is the ability to simultaneously offload a wide range of protocols over a single card. Competitor cards have different versions for each protocol offload supported, with separate firmware for each.
This demonstration consists of two rack servers connected via a Cisco Nexus switch, passing both iSCSI and FCoE traffic concurrently at wire speed.
