Description

The Dell BK3210407-29, featuring the QLogic QLE2742L controller, is a high-performance 32Gb/s Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern enterprise storage area networks (SANs). This adapter provides two Fibre Channel ports, each capable of operating at up to 32Gb/s, ensuring substantial bandwidth for data-intensive applications and high-availability storage configurations. The use of SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceivers allows for flexibility in choosing the appropriate optical or copper connections. Connectivity to the host server is established via a PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface, which offers a high-throughput pathway for data transfer, minimizing latency and maximizing performance. The low-profile form factor makes this HBA suitable for installation in a wide variety of server chassis, including dense 1U and 2U rackmount systems where space is at a premium. Its robust design is geared towards ensuring reliable and consistent data access for critical business operations. This QLogic-based HBA is engineered to deliver exceptional performance, low latency, and advanced features essential for virtualization, databases, cloud computing, and other high-demand workloads. It plays a crucial role in enabling efficient and dependable connectivity between servers and storage arrays, underpinning the performance and availability of enterprise IT infrastructure.
