CISCO 73-11643-05 – Cisco Converged Network Adapter

Detailed Description:

The CISCO 73-11643-05 is a state-of-the-art Cisco Converged Network Adapter designed to provide high-performance, reliable connectivity for servers in data center environments. This adapter merges the functionality of a traditional Ethernet NIC (Network Interface Card) with that of a Fibre Channel HBA (Host Bus Adapter), enabling servers to access both LAN (Local Area Network) and SAN (Storage Area Network) over a single converged fabric. This highly efficient design reduces the need for separate adapters and cables, thereby lowering the overall complexity and cost of the server connectivity infrastructure. It supports high data rates, making it ideal for use in environments with demanding applications such as virtualization, cloud computing, and high-performance computing (HPC). The adapter is engineered for low latency, high bandwidth, and reliability, ensuring that critical applications and data are readily accessible with minimal delays. Its support for data center bridging and other advanced networking technologies enhances its ability to handle large volumes of traffic with superior efficiency. For organizations seeking to optimize their data center operations and ensure fast, secure, and reliable access to network and storage resources, the CISCO 73-11643-05 Converged Network Adapter represents a compelling solution.
