A 2-port 10G Fibre Channel adapter based on PCI Express bus architecture. This product is a half-height, half-length PCIe card, suitable for mainstream half-height server chassis or micro-workstations. The board uses a Xilinx 28nm Kintex-7 series FPGA as the main processor, features one 64-bit DDR3 SDRAM as high-speed cache, and the front panel has two SFP+ optical transceivers, providing 2x 10G Fibre Channel or Ethernet data transceiver capabilities. The board uses air cooling and has temperature monitoring functionality. It can be widely applied in scenarios such as optical data acquisition and high-performance computing (HPC).
