Product Description
The HP 718202-B21 is a high-performance 2-port 16Gb/s Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) specifically designed for integration into HP BladeSystem c-Class servers. This mezzanine card leverages the PCIe 2.0 x4 interface to deliver exceptional throughput and low latency, making it suitable for the most demanding enterprise storage applications. With two 16Gb/s Fibre Channel ports, this HBA provides robust connectivity to Storage Area Networks (SANs). The dual-port design not only increases the aggregate bandwidth available for storage traffic but also offers crucial redundancy. This ensures that blade servers can maintain continuous access to storage resources, even in the event of a single port or path failure, which is critical for business continuity. This adapter is optimized for the dense and high-performance environment of HP BladeSystem enclosures. Its mezzanine form factor allows for efficient space utilization within the blade chassis, while the 16Gb/s speed ensures that storage I/O is not a bottleneck for high-performance computing, virtualization, and large-scale data processing. The HP 718202-B21 is a key component for building scalable and resilient storage infrastructures in modern data centers.
