827607-001 - HP StoreFabric CN1200E Dual Port 10GB Converged Network Adapter

Description

The HP 827607-001, also known as the CN1200E, is a sophisticated dual-port 10GbE Converged Network Adapter (CNA) designed to streamline server infrastructure by consolidating network and storage traffic onto a single adapter. This card supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet connectivity, providing high-speed network access for servers. Its key feature is the integration of Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) capabilities, allowing it to handle both standard network traffic and storage traffic (like Fibre Channel frames) over the same 10GbE network. By converging these two types of traffic, the CN1200E significantly reduces the number of adapters, cables, and switches required in a server rack. This simplification leads to lower hardware costs, reduced power consumption, and less complexity in managing the server's I/O subsystem. The adapter is built around the Broadcom 57810S controller, known for its performance and reliability in enterprise environments. Equipped with a PCIe Gen3 x8 interface, the HP 827607-001 ensures ample bandwidth to support the high throughput demands of 10GbE networking and FCoE. It is an excellent choice for virtualized environments where efficient network and storage I/O are critical, as well as for high-performance computing clusters and applications that require low latency and high bandwidth. The dual-port design provides redundancy and increased capacity for demanding workloads.
