Product Description
The Dell 8C54R is a high-performance Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) specifically engineered for deployment within Dell's PowerEdge MX740c modular server chassis. This Mini-Mezzanine card offers dual ports, each capable of operating at a robust 16Gb/s Fibre Channel speed, providing substantial bandwidth for demanding storage area network (SAN) environments. Its integration into the MX740c allows for efficient, high-density storage connectivity within a converged infrastructure, simplifying cabling and management. This HBA is designed to facilitate seamless communication between the server and external storage arrays, supporting the Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) for reliable data transfer. The dual-port design offers redundancy and increased throughput, ensuring continuous access to storage resources even in the event of a port failure. Its hot-pluggable nature allows for installation or removal without the need to power down the server, minimizing downtime and enhancing operational flexibility. By providing 16Gb/s Fibre Channel connectivity, the 8C54R enables servers to leverage the full performance potential of modern SANs, supporting high-transaction workloads, virtualization, and large-scale data deployments. It is a critical component for organizations seeking to build scalable, high-availability storage solutions within the Dell modular infrastructure.
