The ATTO Celerity FC-324E represents the pinnacle of Fibre Channel connectivity, combining next-generation storage technologies to deliver unparalleled performance for the most demanding data infrastructures.
This quad-channel 32Gb Gen 6 Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter utilizes a x16 PCIe 3.0 interface to achieve remarkable throughput of up to 12.8 GB/s in a single PCIe slot.
Designed for enterprise environments where performance and reliability are paramount, the FC-324E enables system integrators and OEMs to build state-of-the-art storage solutions that meet tomorrow's connectivity needs today.
Advanced Architecture
At the heart of the Celerity FC-324E is a multi-core Fibre Channel ASIC paired with an optimized driver stack.
This intelligent design delivers maximum data throughput with ultra-low latency—reportedly half that of competing products.
The full-height form factor accommodates four independent 32Gb Fibre Channel ports, providing exceptional connectivity density for sophisticated SAN installations.
Performance Optimization
ATTO's proprietary Advanced Data Streaming (ADS) technology is integrated into the FC-324E to control the acceleration of data transfers.
This latency-management technology enables the adapter to move large amounts of data faster and more efficiently across the SAN.
For applications such as high-performance computing, video editing, and large database management, this translates to smoother workflows and improved productivity.
Management and Configuration
The FC-324E comes with ATTO's ConfigTool™ and vConfigTool management utilities.
These intuitive GUI-based tools provide comprehensive management, monitoring, and configuration capabilities.
IT administrators can easily optimize adapter settings, monitor performance metrics, and troubleshoot connectivity issues from a centralized interface.
Versatile Application Support
The Celerity FC-324E is engineered to excel in diverse storage environments including physical and virtual data centers, tape streaming and backup operations, rich content delivery networks, and server clustering implementations.
Its high bandwidth capacity makes it particularly well-suited for real-time and transactional applications where consistent performance is critical.
The adapter's ability to auto-negotiate to lower speeds (16Gb and 8Gb) ensures compatibility with existing Fibre Channel infrastructure while providing a clear upgrade path.
Enterprise Reliability
Built to enterprise standards, the FC-324E delivers the reliability necessary for mission-critical environments.
The adapter includes features such as end-to-end data protection and advanced error checking to ensure data integrity throughout the transfer process.
With SFPs included and backed by a three-year standard warranty, the FC-324E represents a complete, dependable solution for organizations seeking to maximize their storage connectivity capabilities.
