Introduction

This manual describes the Emulex®LPe1250, a single-channel, 8 gigabit per second (Gb/s) Fibre

Channel (FC) to Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) host bus adapter (HBA). It features

a revolutionary design with an integrated ARM-1156 core, integrated SERDES (Serialized/Deserializer),

and integrated SRAM (static random-access memory).

The core technology of this HBA is the ninth generation FC controller by Emulex. The controller

incorporates a multifunction native PCIe core that is compliant to the PCIe Base Specification 2.0 and

PCI Express Card Electromechanical (CEM) Specification 2.0. The HBA supports packet transfers up to

5 gigatransfers per second (5.0 GT/s) on the PCIe link. The supported physical PCIe connector is x4 or

x8. The fully featured FC port is compliant to various American National Standards Institute (ANSI) FC

standards. The product is targeted at FC storage networking environments that require the highest

degrees of robustness, performance and ease of management.

Major Features

• Multifunction PCIe 2.0 device with one FC port

• Auto-negotiation between 2-Gb/s, 4-Gb/s or 8-Gb/s FC link attachments

• Complies with the PCIe base and CEM 2.0 specifications:

• Built-in temperature sensor

Compatibility

Prerequisites

• PCIe 2.0 compliant systems: x4 or x8 lane transfer link interface

• 3.3 volt (V) and 12 V power from PCIe slot required for operation

Table 1. Software and Hardware Environments

Software Environments Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, VMware, and Linux

Hardware Environments PCIe 2.0 and CEM 2.0 compliant systems and backwards compatible to 1.0a

and 1.1 compliant systems.

Installing the Host Bus Adapter

The Emulex LPe1250 HBA uses a removable optical transceiver. If you need to change the bracket for

HBA installation, you must first remove this transceiver from its housing (cage). This document explains

how to install the HBA and, if necessary, how to remove the transceiver and bracket safely. To install the

HBA:

1. Each HBA is shipped with several numbers clearly marked on the board. these include

• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) Address

• Worldwide name (WWN)

• Serial number

The IEEE address is a unique 64-bit identifier that you use when configuring your system. The

FC industry uses the WWN derived from the IEEE address for FC connectivity. If the adapter

has two ports, there are two IEEE addresses and two WWNs. Use the serial number when com-

municating with Emulex. Record these numbers before installation.

2. Turn off the computer and unplug it.

3. Remove the computer case.

4. Follow steps 5–12 to change the bracket if they are different sizes. Otherwise, skip to step 13.

5. To change the bracket, you must first remove the transceiver from its cage assembly.

CAUTION: This is a delicate operation–take care not to damage the transceiver.

The HBA uses different types of transceivers. Figure 1 shows an example of one type showing

the bail (handle) extended.

Figure 1: Example of a transceiver

6. To remove the transceiver, pull the bail (handle) out and down to release the latch and gently pull

the transceiver out. Do not force it. After the latch is released, the transceiver slides out easily.

Note: The HBA reports a device ID of 0x1AE5.

Note: The HBA comes with a standard PCIe bracket installed. A low-profile bracket is

included in the box with the HBA. The low-profile mounting bracket is shorter than the

standard bracket; approximately 3.11 in. (7.9 cm) compared to 4.75 in. (12.06 cm)

long.

Figure 2 shows the transceiver partly extracted.

Figure 2: Removing a transceiver

7. Observing electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions, store the transceiver in an ESD-safe place.

8. Remove the mounting bracket screws from the top of the HBA.

Figure 3: Removing the Bracket

9. Remove the bracket and store it for future use.

10. Align the new mounting bracket tabs with the holes in the HBA.

11. Re-install the screws that attach the HBA to the bracket.

12. Re-install the transceiver by sliding it into the housing. When the latch engages, it clicks.

13. Push the bail back into place.

14. Remove the blank panel from an empty x8 or higher PCIe bus slot.

15. Insert the HBA into the empty slot. Press firmly until the adapter is seated.

16. Secure the HBA's mounting bracket to the case with the panel screw or clip.

17. Replace the computer case and tighten case screws.

The HBA is now installed in the computer and is ready for media attachment.

Note: Be careful not to push the bracket past the transceiver housing's grounding tabs.

Make sure the light emitting diodes (LEDs) are properly aligned with the holes in the

bracket.

Attaching Media

Use multimode fiber optic cable, with short-wave lasers, that adheres to the following specifications:

To attach media to the HBA:

1. Connect a fiber optic cable to an LC connector on the HBA. See figure 4.

Figure 4: Connecting Fiber Optic Cable

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the Fibre Channel device.

After the media is connected to the HBA, you are ready to apply power to the computer.

Note: The HBA will not allow normal data transmission on an optical link unless it is

connected to another similar or compatible laser product (that is, multimode to

multimode.)

Note: The HBA will not automatically downgrade to the required FC speed based on cable

length. You must downgrade the speed with the appropriate utility or link errors may

occur.

Applying Power

To apply power:

1. Verify that the HBA is securely installed in the computer.

2. Verify that the correct media is attached.

3. Plug in the computer and turn it on.

4. Watch the LEDs for Power On Self Test (POST) results.

Viewing the LEDs

You can see green and yellow LEDs through openings in the HBA's mounting bracket. The green LED

means firmware operation and the yellow LED means port activity.

POST Conditions and Results

The following table summarizes POST conditions and results:

Note: For the link rate conditions, there is a 1 second pause when the LED is off between

each group of fast blinks (2, 3 or 4). Observe the LED sequence for several seconds

to be sure you have correctly identified the pattern.
