Netwerkadapter FUJITSU ETAHX2F-L — 10 Gb Ethernet, 2 poorten, voor ETERNUS DX 100 S5 / 200 S5

The FUJITSU ETAHX2F-L is a dual-port 10 Gb Ethernet network adapter engineered for Fujitsu ETERNUS DX 100 S5 and 200 S5 storage systems. It adds two 10 Gb Ethernet interfaces to existing storage arrays to increase network throughput for storage I/O, replication and backup operations. The adapter is intended to integrate with the ETERNUS hardware family, providing a higher-bandwidth interface for data transfers and improved connectivity options in rack and datacenter installations.

Advantages

This network adapter provides two independent 10 Gb Ethernet ports, enabling simultaneous high-speed connections for storage traffic and replication links. Designed to match ETERNUS DX storage controllers, it supports stable operation under sustained load and helps reduce bottlenecks in storage networks. The module’s compact form and direct compatibility with the specified ETERNUS models simplify installation and reduce integration time in managed infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Expanding network bandwidth for ETERNUS DX 100 S5 and 200 S5 storage systems
• Storage replication between systems in the same datacenter or over a network
• High-throughput backup and restore operations
• Connection to 10 Gb Ethernet switches and aggregation for SAN/NAS traffic

Key specifications

• Interface: dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports
• Compatibility: designed for integration with specified ETERNUS DX storage models
• Form factor: server/storage expansion module compatible with ETERNUS chassis
• Use case: optimized for storage traffic, replication and backup workloads
• Connectivity: supports standard 10 GbE network connections to switches and hosts

How to use

Install the adapter into the appropriate expansion slot of the supported ETERNUS DX storage system following the system service manual. Connect the two 10 Gb Ethernet ports to network switches or hosts using compatible cabling and transceivers. Configure network settings and link aggregation on the storage system and connected network devices as required for your environment. Monitor link status and performance through the storage management interface to verify proper operation.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use certified 10 Gb Ethernet switches and appropriate optical or copper transceivers and cables. When deploying for replication or backup tasks, plan network capacity and consider link aggregation or dedicated VLANs to separate storage traffic from general-purpose network traffic.
