Using Brocade HBAs, you can connect your host system to devices on the Fibre Channel SAN. The
combined high performance and proven reliability of a single-ASIC design makes these HBAs ideal
for connecting hosts to SAN fabrics based on Brocade Fabric or M-Enterprise operating systems.
This publication only supports the HBA models listed in Table 5, and does not provide information
about the Brocade 410 and 420 Fibre Channel HBAs, also known as the Brocade 400 Fibre Channel
HBAs.
