Product Description
The HP 13740-60002 is a Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) designed to integrate servers into Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs). Fibre Channel is a high-speed networking technology primarily used for storage, offering reliable and efficient data transfer between servers and storage devices like disk arrays and tape libraries. This HBA acts as the crucial link, translating server I/O requests into Fibre Channel frames and vice versa. Operating at a speed of 1 Gigabit per second (1Gb/s) per port, this adapter provides sufficient bandwidth for many enterprise storage applications. While newer standards offer higher speeds, 1Gb/s Fibre Channel was a prevalent and robust solution for many years and remains functional in certain environments. The adapter uses the standard PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus for its connection to the server's motherboard, ensuring broad compatibility with older server architectures. This HBA is essential for organizations that rely on SANs for centralized storage management, data sharing, and high availability. It allows servers to access storage resources remotely and efficiently, supporting critical business functions such as database operations, virtualization, and backup. The reliability inherent in Fibre Channel technology, combined with HP's engineering, makes this a dependable component for enterprise storage infrastructure.
