Product Description
The HP 571520-001, part of the StorageWorks 81B family, is a high-performance Host Bus Adapter designed to connect servers to Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs). With a single 8Gb/s Fibre Channel port, this adapter provides a robust and reliable pathway for data access to enterprise-grade storage systems. The 8Gb/s speed offers significant bandwidth, crucial for demanding applications such as databases, virtualization, and high-performance computing. This HBA utilizes the PCI Express (PCIe) interface, allowing for direct integration into the server's motherboard and providing high bandwidth between the adapter and the system's CPU. Its design focuses on delivering low latency and high throughput, essential characteristics for maintaining the performance of storage-intensive workloads. The single-port configuration is often chosen for its cost-effectiveness while still providing essential SAN connectivity. Compatible with a wide range of HP ProLiant servers and enterprise storage solutions, the 571520-001 is a key component for building scalable and resilient storage infrastructures. It enables servers to access shared storage resources efficiently, facilitating data consolidation, high availability, and disaster recovery strategies. The adapter is typically managed through server operating system drivers and SAN management software.
