FUJITSU Converged Network Adapter (CNA)
Emulex OCe14102
Dual-port 10GbE Converged Network Adapter
Main Features Benefits
 Superior network scalability - 10GbE bandwidth on common
software platform
 Maximizes server hardware ROI with high virtual machine density
 RoCE Support  Enables server to server data movement directly between
application memory without any CPU involvement providing high
throughput on a standard Ethernet
 Powerful Overlay Networking ofoads (NVGRE and VXLAN)  Accelerates applications performance
 Stateless TCP/IP ofoads  Provides the bandwidth needed for slot constrained server
platforms
 Common technology with Dynamic LoM  Same driver and management support as for LOM on new dual
socket M1 server generation
A Converged Network Adapter (CNA) is a Network
Adapter that supports both the Ethernet and
Fibre Channel standards. It provides 10 Gbps
connectivity to Ethernet networks and also
connects to Fibre Channel storage area networks
(SANs) using Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
and Data Center Bridging (DCB). The adapter
consolidates Ethernet data and FCoE storage
trafc, reducing the number of cables and
adapters needed for a server. The CNA provides
2 independent physical functions per port which
can both be used at the same time for FC and
Ethernet. Each port of the device provides separate
NIC and HBA functions to the operating system or
hypervisor. FC and network trafc are transmitted
simultaneously over a common cable to a DCB-
enabled FCoE switch which segregates Ethernet
and Fibre Channel I/O to the appropriate network.

Emulex OCe14102
The Emulex OneConnect Universal CNA OCe14000
family of Ethernet Network Adapters is the
FCoE and most advanced generation of Emulex
Ethernet adapters. Powered by the XE100
controller, OCe14000 adapters offer enhanced
support for virtualization, cloud and hyperscale
cluster deployments. This paper highlights
support for Emulex’s Virtual Network eXceleration
initiative that delivers support for Single Root
I/O Virtualization, Universal Multi-Channel™ NIC
Partitioning and Stateless TCP/IP Ofoads amongst
its many capabilities.
As a member of the CNA 14000 family, the
OCe14102 uses a 10Gbit/s DCB (Converged
Enhanced Ethernet) infrastructure for networking
and storage, reducing capital expense (CapEx) for
adapters, switches and cables, and operational
expense (OpEx) for power, cooling and IT
administration. The OCe14102 adapter increases
data center IT agility and scalability, as well as
optimation of the server hardware utilization by
scaling high density virtualization.
The OCe14102 with 10GbE UCNAs is designed
for the high bandwidth and scalability demands
of Tier-1 enterprise applications with storage
protocol (FCoE and iSCSI) ofoads, more scalable
virtualization with support for enhanced Single-
Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) and NIC port
partitioning, and cloud optimization using Overlay
Networking technology.
