The Cisco UCS CNA M73KR-Q QLogic Converged Network Adapter is a QLogic-based fiber channel over Ethernet mezzanine card that provides connectivity for Cisco UCS B-series blade servers in the Cisco Unified Computing System.
Designed specifically for the Cisco UCS blades, the adapter provides high-performance connectivity for SAN and LAN traffic. One Cisco UCS CNA M73KR-Q can do the work of a discrete fiber channel host bus adapter and Ethernet network interface card. This convergence means fewer cables, fewer switches, less power consumption, reduced cooling, and unified LAN and SAN management.
