Overview

The IBM Qlogic Ethernet and 4GB Fibre Channel Expansion Card (part number 41Y8581) is a high-performance I/O adapter designed for mission critical servers. It combines Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with a 4 Gbps Fibre Channel host bus interface on a single, low profile card, enabling seamless integration of data centre networks and storage fabrics. Engineered to meet the rigorous demands of enterprise environments, this expansion card delivers reliable throughput, reduced latency and robust error handling for both LAN and SAN traffic.

Key Features

  • Dual-mode operation supporting Gigabit Ethernet and 4 Gbps Fibre Channel on one adapter
  • Full compliance with IBM server architectures and PCIe x8 interface
  • Advanced offload engine for TCP/IP and FC protocols to improve CPU efficiency
  • Hot-plug capability for non-disruptive installation and replacement
  • Built-in error detection and correction mechanisms for data integrity
  • Low power consumption with optimized thermal design for dense rack deployments

Technical Specifications

  • Model/Part Number: 41Y8581
  • Interface: PCI Express x8, 5.0 GT/s
  • Ethernet Speed: 10/100/1000 Mbps
  • Fibre Channel Speed: 4 Gbps (full duplex)
  • Supported FC Protocols: FCP, FC-SCSI, FCoE
  • Connector Types: RJ45 for Ethernet, LC duplex for Fibre Channel
  • Operating Temperature: 0 to 55 degrees Celsius
  • Power Requirement: 6 Watts typical

Applications

This expansion card is ideal for a wide range of enterprise scenarios, including:

  • Consolidated server environments that need both network and storage connectivity without adding multiple cards
  • Virtualisation platforms where high bandwidth and low latency are critical for VM migration and storage access
  • High performance computing clusters requiring fast data movement between compute nodes and shared storage arrays
  • Backup and disaster recovery solutions that benefit from simultaneous Ethernet and Fibre Channel traffic handling
  • Data centre upgrades where space, power and cooling constraints demand compact yet powerful I/O solutions

The IBM Qlogic Ethernet and 4GB FC Expansion Card provides a versatile, reliable bridge between your server infrastructure and both network and storage resources, helping you maximize performance while simplifying cabling and management.
