Product Description
The Emulex 394588-B21 is a specialized Host Bus Adapter (HBA) tailored for integration into HP ProLiant blade server environments, specifically models like the BL25, BL30, BL35, and BL45. This adapter provides essential Fibre Channel connectivity, enabling these blade servers to interface with storage area networks (SANs). With its dual-port configuration, it offers both redundancy and increased bandwidth for storage traffic. Operating at 2Gb/s Fibre Channel speeds, this HBA delivers adequate performance for many enterprise storage applications. The PCI-X Mezzanine form factor is crucial for its integration within the compact chassis of blade servers, ensuring a secure and efficient connection.

This adapter is designed to support the Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP), which is the standard for connecting servers to Fibre Channel storage devices. Its inclusion allows blade servers to participate fully in SAN infrastructure, providing access to shared storage resources. The specific compatibility with HP blade servers makes it a direct replacement or upgrade option for systems requiring this particular type of mezzanine HBA.
