Product Description
The HP 380671-B21 is a Fibre Channel (FC) controller module specifically designed to integrate with the HP StorageWorks Raid Array 8000 and 12000 series storage systems. Fibre Channel is a high-speed networking technology primarily used for Storage Area Networks (SANs), offering high bandwidth and low latency, which are critical for demanding enterprise storage applications. This module allows these HP storage arrays to connect to SAN environments, providing servers with direct, high-performance access to the stored data. This controller module typically features multiple Fibre Channel ports, often supporting speeds of 2Gb/s or 4Gb/s, depending on the exact variant. The presence of multiple ports is crucial for building redundant SAN connections, ensuring continuous data access even if one path fails. It enables efficient data transfer between servers and the storage array, making it suitable for mission-critical applications that require high availability and performance, such as databases, virtualization platforms, and high-performance computing environments. Designed to be hot-pluggable, the 380671-B21 can be installed or replaced in the HP StorageWorks array without requiring the system to be powered down. This feature is essential for maintaining uptime and minimizing disruption in enterprise data centers. The module plays a vital role in enabling scalable and robust storage solutions by providing the necessary high-speed connectivity for advanced storage area networks.
