Emulex to Present at Fall Microprocessor Forum 2006

Presentation to Highlight Storage Virtualization Strategies and the Company's Intelligent Storage Processor


ADVISORY, Oct. 10, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) --


 WHAT:

       Emulex Corporation (NYSE:ELX), the most trusted name in storage
       networking connectivity solutions, will present to attendees at
       the Fall Microprocessor Forum during Session Four, "Multicores
       for Embedded Applications, Part 2," on Wednesday, October 11,
       2006. Mukund Chavan, chief hardware architect and senior
       director of engineering for Emulex's Intelligent Network
       Products group, will present the details of Emulex's AV150
       intelligent storage processor.

       Storage virtualization allows IT managers to centrally manage
       all their external block storage, increase storage utilization
       and provide advanced solutions for policy based provisioning,
       disaster recovery, compliance, data mobility, tiered storage
       and information life cycle management. However, enabling these
       new capabilities without creating a bottleneck in the SAN
       fabric is a technology challenge. In his presentation, Mr.
       Chavan will address how to make virtual operations "invisible"
       to the network through the use of Emulex's high-performance,
       low-latency AV150 intelligent storage processor.
