Description
Product Overview of the Dual Port PCI-E Host Bus Adapter
HPE 718201-001 LPE1605 is a 16GB Dual Port PCI-E Fibre Channel Mezzanine Host Bus Adapter (HBA). It is designed to provide high-speed connectivity for storage area networks (SANs). This adapter enables reliable and efficient data transfer between servers and storage devices, improving the overall performance of the SAN.
Fibre Channel Technology
Fibre Channel is a high-speed data transfer technology used in SANs. It enables the transfer of large amounts of data at speeds of up to 32 gigabits per second (Gbps). Fibre Channel technology is reliable, efficient, and scalable, making it ideal for large-scale data centers.
Host Bus Adapter
A Host Bus Adapter (HBA) is a device that connects a computer system to a storage device or a network. It acts as an interface between the system’s bus and the storage device or network. The HBA enables the system to send and receive data to and from the storage device or network.
HPE 718201-001 LPE1605 HBA
The HPE 718201-001 LPE1605 HBA is a high-performance adapter designed to provide connectivity to Fibre Channel SANs. It is a dual-port adapter, which means it has two ports for connecting to the SAN. This feature provides redundancy and load balancing, improving the overall performance and reliability of the SAN.
PCI-E Interface
The HPE 718201-001 LPE1605 HBA uses the PCI Express (PCI-E) interface to connect to the system’s bus. The PCI-E interface is a high-speed serial bus interface that enables the transfer of data between the HBA and the system’s bus. The PCI-E interface is widely used in modern computer systems, and it provides high-bandwidth connectivity, making it ideal for high-performance applications.
16GB Data Transfer Rate
The HPE 718201-001 LPE1605 HBA supports a data transfer rate of up to 16 gigabits per second (Gbps). This high-speed data transfer rate enables the adapter to transfer large amounts of data quickly and efficiently, improving the overall performance of the SAN.
Mezzanine Form Factor
The HPE 718201-001 LPE1605 HBA is designed in a mezzanine form factor. Mezzanine form factor devices are small, compact devices that are designed to be installed on a motherboard or a riser card. The mezzanine form factor enables the HBA to be installed in a space-saving manner, making it ideal for systems with limited space.
