IT managers now have a choice when considering SAN management options. The QLA405x series iSCSI HBAs provide connectivity to SANs over Ethernet and TCP/IP network infrastructures (switches, routers, and VPN appliances). Using a widely deployed and familiar networking technology, iSCSI can lower the total cost of ownership to better manage and support storage networking.

By offloading the iSCSI and TCP/IP protocol to the adapter, the QLA405x eliminates the processing, interrupts, and bus accesses required to support protocols in host software. The QLA405x virtually eliminates the host CPU system processing required for iSCSI and TCP/IP, delivering the equivalent initialization and host processing performance of direct attach storage (DAS) and Fiber Channel (FC) SANs.

The SANsurfer iSCSI HBA Manager, part of the SANsurfer Management Suite, is an easy to use device management tool used for the installation, configuration, and management of QLogic HBAs. All HBAs in the SANblade iSCSI family are managed by the QLogic SANsurfer iSCSI HBA Manager to provide centralized management and remote control of distributed HBAs. The QLA405x is also fully compatible with management applications that support the MS WMI, SNIA IMA, and SMI-S standards, allowing IT managers to manage QLogic HBAs through third-party software applications.
