Description
The Broadcom Emulex LPE32002-M2 is a high-performance dual-port 32G Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter designed for next-generation flash-optimized SAN environments. Featuring Gen 6 Fibre Channel technology, it delivers up to 6400 MB/s full-duplex throughput per port, extremely low latency, and exceptional IOPS performance for modern workloads including virtualization, NVMe storage, and mission-critical enterprise applications.
Built with Emulex’s Dynamic Multi-core architecture, the LPE32002-M2 intelligently allocates ASIC resources for maximum port efficiency, ensuring consistent and predictable application performance. With concurrent NVMe-over-Fibre-Channel and SCSI-over-Fibre-Channel support, data centers can transition to modern storage protocols at their own pace.
The adapter enhances data integrity through T10-PI, Forward Error Correction, secure firmware updates, and industry-leading reliability validated by millions of deployed ports. With extensive OS support and strong ecosystem integration, the LPE32002-M2 is the ideal choice for flash-accelerated, highly virtualized, and mission-critical SAN infrastructures.
