HPE StoreFabric SN1600E - Host bus adapter - PCIe 3.0 x8 - 32Gb Fibre Channel x 2 - for ProLiant DL325 Gen10, DL345 Gen10, DL365 Gen10, DX360 Gen10, XL220n Gen10, XL290n Gen10

The HPE host bus adapters bring datacenter infrastructure components to a higher level of performance and efficiency with the ability to deliver twice the bandwidth performance of 16 Gb HBAs at lower latency. When using storage intensive applications, such as backup/restore, database transactions, virtualization, and rich media, the increased performance of the 32 Gb infrastructure enables rapid storage and retrieval of critical information. Designed for environments with greater virtual machine density and bandwidth requirements, the 32 Gb HBAs enable more applications and VMs to run on a single host server and Fiber Channel port, resulting in reduced cabling and a higher return on IT investment. Applications that require high SLA and high performance are predicted to be the early adopters of high throughput benefits that 32 Gb Fiber Channel offers.

• Reduced power consumption
• Support for greater server virtualization
• Connectivity to HPE storage and network robust interoperability

• Reduced power consumption
  Advanced technology saves power by pausing the SFP when activity is not present. Reduced number of components on each FC HBA reduces overall power consumption.
• Support for greater server virtualization
  Ideal for high-density server virtualization environments that require high bandwidth for increased scalability.
• Connectivity to HPE storage and network robust interoperability
  Provides an HPE-branded HBA solution which has undergone extensive HPE interoperability testing for connecting HPE ProLiant servers into HPE Storage and networking environments.
