Operating system or partition requirements
If you are installing a new feature, ensure that you have the software that is required to support the new
feature and that you determine whether any prerequisites must be met for this feature and attaching
devices. To check for operating system and partition requirements, see one of the following links:

PCIe3 4-port (2x10 Gb FCoE, 2x1 GbE) SFP+ Adapter (FC EN0H, CCIN 2B93)
Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) EN0H
adapters.
Overview
The PCIe3 4-port (2x10 Gb FCoE, 2x1 GbE) SFP+ Adapter is a PCI Express (PCIe) generation 3,
low-profile capable adapter. The adapter has four-ports and is a Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
converged network adapter (CNA). This adapter provides a PCIe 3.0 host bus interface. The adapter is a
high-performance adapter that consolidates traffic for networking and Fibre Channel storage. The adapter
is optimized for cloud computing, virtualization, storage, and other data center applications. Both FCoE
and network interface controller (NIC) functions are available for both FCoE ports. Use of the FCoE
requires that you use convergence enhanced Ethernet (CEE) switches. The link aggregation and failover
features of the adapter make it suitable for critical network applications that require redundancy and
high availability.
Important: There is no FCoE support on POWER9 systems.
The four-port adapter provides two 10 Gb FCoE small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) SR optical ports and
two 1 Gb RJ45 Ethernet ports. The two 10 Gb FCoE ports are connected by little connector-type (LC)
connectors. Each FCoE port provides Ethernet connectivity with a nominal data rate of 10 Gbps (gigabits
per second). Each of the 1 Gb ports provides Ethernet connectivity at a data rate of 1 Gbps and is
connected with Ethernet cables. A 10 Mb data rate is not supported. Figure 68 on page 154 shows the FC
EN0H adapter.
Restriction: The 1 Gb Ethernet ports do not support data rates of 10 Mbps (megabits per second).
The adapter provides the following features:
v The adapter is a PCIe3 FCoE or NIC network convergence adapter.
