CONNECT - DATA SHEET

High Performance Networking for Enterprise Virtualization and the Cloud

Overview

As the fourth generation of the Emulex OneConnect® product line, the OCe14000
family of Ethernet network adapters provides high per formance 10Gb Ethernet
(10GbE) and 40GbE connectivity delivering multiple benefits for the enterprise
cloud, including:

n

Increasing data center IT agility and scalability through deployment of a secure

n

Optimizing server hardware utilization by scaling high density virtualization

n

Delivering user-controlled bandwidth partitioning across workloads and

n

Choice of single-port, dual-port or quad-por t 10GbE SFP+ or single-port 40GbE

The OCe14000 family of 10GbE and 40GbE network adapters is designed for the
high bandwidth and scalabilit y demands of enterprise applications, more scalable
virtualization with support for RDMA trac over Converged Ethernet (RoCE),
enhanced Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) and NIC port partitioning, and
next-generation overlay network technologies that address the requirements virtual
machine (VM) mobilit y and massive scaling of Layer 2 subnets inside private or hybrid
cloud infrastructures.

Emulex Virtual Network Exceleration (VNeX™)
overlay network ooads for multi-tenant cloud networking

Scaling existing technologies for private or public multi-tenant infrastructures
requires networking solutions that can enable VM-to-VM communication and
virtual workload migration across Layer 2 and Layer 3 boundaries without impacting
connectivity or performance.

At the same time, these solutions need to ensure isolation and security for
thousands or millions of tenant networks. However, with existing technology, the
available 4094 VLAN IDs are insucient to isolate/secure each tenant in a data center
(private cloud) or hybrid cloud environment.

Virtual Extensible Local Area Network (VXLAN) supported by VMware and Linux, and
Network Virtualization using Generic Routing Encapsulation (NVGRE) (‘supported
by Microsoft’) are next-generation overlay networking solutions that address these
requirements. These solutions are a frame-in-frame data packet encapsulation
scheme enabling the creation of virtualized Layer 2 subnets that can span physical
L3 IP net works. Trac from each VM is tunneled to a specific virtual network; the
packets are then routed transparently over the existing physical infrastructure.

OCe14000 10Gb and 40Gb
Ethernet Network Adapters

Emulex VNeX ooad technology powered by a multi-core adapter ASIC engine
accelerates the performance of network virtualization by preserving legacy stateless
TCP ooads and scaling methods on encapsulated packets, providing full native
network performance in a virtual network environment.

Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) support

The OCe14000 adapters leverage RoCE enabling server to server data movement
directly bet ween application memory without any CPU involvement providing high
throughput and data acceleration on a standard Ethernet fabric without the need for
any specialized infrastructure or management.

Optimized host virtualization density with SR-IOV support

SR-IOV optimizes I/O for VMs, enabling higher host ser ver virtualization ratios to
deliver maximum ser ver return on investment (ROI). SR-IOV provides a more cost­eective solution than multiple, physical adapter ports. SR-IOV enables multiple
VMs to directly access the OCe14000’s I/O resources, thus allowing VM networking
I/O to bypass the host and take a path directly between the VM and the adapter,
eliminating redundant I/O processing in the hypervisor. This, in turn, allows higher I/O
performance, lower CPU utilization and significantly reduced latency as compared to
the alternative of soft ware-emulated Network Interface Card (NIC) devices that are
implemented in the hypervisor.

Optimized bandwidth allocation with Emulex
Universal Multi-Channel™ port partitioning

Emulex Universal Multi-Channel (UMC) is ideal for virtualized server environments
because bandwidth allocation can be optimized to support virtual machine
migration, management and I/O intensive applications. UMC allows multiple
Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) physical functions to be created on each
adapter port. Each OCe14000 adapter can be configured with up to 16 functions.

Available Quad-por t 10GbE SFP+

Use cases such as Content Delivery Network (CDN) and hosting providers have
standardized on 10GbE and often are looking for more bandwidth per server for the
services they provide.

The Emulex quad-port 10GbE model (OCe14104) delivers 40GbE full-duplex
bandwidth using a single PCIe slot. An additional benefit of this configuration is
utilization of existing 10GbE SFP+ switch connections versus buying new 40GbE QSFP+
switches.

Simplified management Emulex OneCommand® Manager application

Emulex OneCommand Manager provides centralized management of Emulex
OneConnect Converged Network Adapters (CNAs) and LightPulse® Host Bus
Adapters (HBAs) throughout the data center from a single management console. The
OneCommand Manager application provides a graphical user interface (GUI) and a
scriptable command line user inter face (CLI). OneCommand Manager for VMware
is fully integrated with VMware vCenter to simplif y management for vir tual server
deployments.

Fourth generation platform delivers enterprise-class reliability and performance

Leveraging generations of advanced, field-proven controller and adapter technology,
OCe14000 adapters meet the robust interoperability and reliability requirements
of enterprise and scale-out data centers.
