SCSI PCI Express Host Adapter

The ATTO ExpressPCI UL5D, an ATTO Ultra320
SCSI host adapter, offers high-performance

provided

by

Ultra320

and

ATTO-designed

performance enhancing technologies. The UL5D
SCSI host adapter aids users dealing with the
reality of today’s data-intensive environments,

including video-editing applications requiring

support for multiple streams of 10-bit high-
definition video.

Additionally, the ExpressPCI UL5D offers support
for the next generation of PCI bus technology with
a 4-lane PCI Express (PCIe) interconnect. The
high-bandwidth provided by a PCI Express
interconnect ensures the UL5D can operate at
speeds up to 640 MB/sec. The combination of
Ultra320 SCSI and PCI Express makes the UL5D
ideal for high-end workstations running high-
volume, mission critical applications such as

messaging and databases.

ATTO host adapters offer ATTO’s exclusive Ad-
vanced Data Streaming (ADS

TM

) technology, and

the ExpressPCI UL5D is no exception. By

effectively managing latency and allowing for fast
and efficient data movement, utilization of the CPU
is reduced, freeing it up to perform other mission
critical tasks.

The ExpressPCI UL5D is the industry’s first choice
for high-speed SCSI host adapters. By offering
support for Ultra320 SCSI and PCI Express, in
addition to ATTO-designed technologies such as
ADS, the ExpressPCI UL5D offers both the

performance and feature set necessary for data-
intensive applications.
