The QLA2200 HBA is an intelligent, high-performance, DMA bus master host adapter designed for high-end systems. The intelligence and performance are derived from the ISP2200chips, making the QLA2200 HBA a leading-edge host adapter. The ISP2200 combines a powerful RISC processor, a fibre protocol module (FPM) with gigabit transceivers, and a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) local bus interface in a single-chip solution. The QLA2200 HBA supports all FC peripherals that support private loop direct attach (PLDA) and fabric loop attach (FLA).
