Product Description
The Compaq 393479-001 is a high-performance Host Bus Adapter (HBA) designed to provide robust connectivity between servers and Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs). Featuring four dedicated Fibre Channel ports, each capable of operating at 2Gb/s, this adapter ensures high throughput and low latency for critical storage traffic. The PCI-Express interface allows for direct connection to the server's motherboard, leveraging the high bandwidth and low overhead of the PCIe bus for optimal performance. This HBA is essential for environments that rely on Fibre Channel SANs for their storage infrastructure, such as enterprise data centers, high-performance computing clusters, and large-scale database deployments. The multiple ports offer redundancy, load balancing, and the ability to connect to multiple SAN fabrics or storage controllers, enhancing both availability and performance. Its design focuses on reliability and efficient data transfer, making it a key component for ensuring seamless access to storage resources. By providing a dedicated pathway for storage traffic, the Compaq 393479-001 offloads I/O processing from the server's main CPU, freeing up resources for application workloads. This results in improved overall system performance and responsiveness. The 2Gb/s speed per port is sufficient for many enterprise storage needs, offering a balance of performance, cost-effectiveness, and compatibility with existing Fibre Channel infrastructure.
