Overview

The HP StorageWorks CN1000E Dual Port
Converged Network Adapter is a second­generation, low profile Fibre Channel over
Ethernet (FCoE) PCIe adapter for HP ProLiant
rack servers. The HP CN1000E Converged
Network Adapter is based on the Emulex
OneConnect

™

platform that delivers industry­leading performance with a single-chip
architecture that fully supports network
convergence and Data Center Bridging (DCB)
standards for lossless Ethernet.

The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter
complements HP’s Converged Infrastructure
architecture. This open architecture uses industry
standards to converge storage, server, and network
resources and provide seamless interoperability
with existing data center core networks.

Optimized Network Connectivity

Lower cost
The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter
can save up to 30% on capital expenses by
reducing the number of adapter cards, switch
ports and cables needed to support network and
storage traffic.

Lower power and cooling
The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter
can reduce the number of adapter cards and
switches, resulting in significant savings for power
and cooling.

Consolidation with the latest Intel Xeon CPUs
The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter,
based on Emulex OneConnect Universal CNA
(UCNA) technology, was designed to leverage the
new features of Xeon processors beginning with
the 5500 series, including MSI-X, QPI, PCI-Express

2.0, HTT and VT-d which all enable more I/O per
CPU with protocol hardware offload technology.

Simplified Management

OneCommand Manager application

The OneCommand

™

Manager application
provides centralized management of HP
CN1000E Converged Network Adapters
and HP-branded Emulex LightPulse

®

HBAs throughout the data center from
a centralized management console. The
OneCommand Manager application
provides a graphical user interface (GUI)
and a scriptable command line user
interface (CLI), which drives administration
efficiency.

Streamlined installation

Using AutoPilot Installer, a single
installation of drivers and applications
for Windows servers eliminates multiple
reboots and ensures that each component
is installed correctly and HP CN1000E
Converged Network Adapters are ready
to use.

Highest Performance and Reliability

Enterprise-ready

Leveraging ten generations of advanced,
field-proven HBA technology, HP
CN1000E Converged Network Adapters
are based on the Emulex OneConnect
architecture and meet the robust
interoperability and reliability requirements
of corporate data centers.

Advanced error checking

End-to-end data protection with hardware
parity, CRC, ECC and other advanced
error checking and correcting ensure that
data is safe from corruption.
