Introduction 1-5 Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter/E The Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter/E was designed for use in a server equipped with the EISA expansion bus. The Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter/E, under the control of the operating system and dedicated device drivers, provides an interface between the EISA bus in the server and a (FC-AL). The EISA expansion bus delivers the capabilities required by high-performance, 32-bit expansion boards, while maintaining compatibility with existing 8- and 16-bit ISA expansion boards. The Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter/E takes advantage of the EISA architecture by performing 32-bit bus master-burst transfers. The Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter/E requires the installation of a GBIC module, in the receptacle provided, before the Fibre Channel cable is connected. Figure 1-4. Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter/E
