Lenovo 00Y3337 QLogic 16Gb FC HBA Features

Single-Port 16Gb Fibre Channel

The 00Y3337 provides one 16Gb Fibre Channel port for high-speed SAN connectivity. It supports 16Gbps, 8Gbps, and 4Gbps Fibre Channel devices for interoperability with compatible Fibre Channel infrastructure.

QLogic Fibre Channel Architecture

The adapter uses QLogic Fibre Channel technology with full hardware offload for Fibre Channel protocol processing. Lenovo documentation also identifies independent functionality, isolated memory, and independent firmware architecture for the adapter family.

PCIe 2.0 and 3.0 Support
