Product Description
The Emulex 42D0496-LP is a high-performance Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) that provides essential connectivity for servers to Storage Area Networks (SANs). This adapter features dual ports, each operating at 8Gbps, delivering substantial bandwidth for data-intensive applications and ensuring high availability through multipathing capabilities. The dual-port architecture is crucial for environments requiring fault tolerance and optimized I/O performance. This specific model is designed with a low-profile form factor, making it compatible with a wide range of server chassis, including slim rackmount systems where space is a constraint. The adapter utilizes a PCI Express (PCIe) bus interface, which offers superior bandwidth and lower latency compared to older bus technologies, ensuring efficient data transfer between the server and its storage infrastructure. Often found as an OEM part, the 42D0496-LP leverages Emulex's proven technology for reliability and performance. It is an ideal solution for businesses running critical applications such as databases, virtualization platforms, and high-performance computing clusters that demand consistent and fast access to storage resources.
