HP 872164-001 Synergy 5330C 2-Ports FC 32Gb/s Mezzanine Card HBA

Description

The HP 872164-001 is a high-performance 2-port 32Gb Fibre Channel Mezzanine Card, specifically designed for integration into HP Synergy compute modules. This HBA provides essential connectivity for Synergy environments, enabling compute modules to access shared storage resources over a Storage Area Network (SAN) at high speeds. Each of the two Fibre Channel ports operates at a native 32Gbps, delivering the bandwidth required for demanding enterprise workloads, including virtualization, databases, and high-performance computing applications running within the Synergy composable infrastructure. As a mezzanine card, it is designed to plug directly into a dedicated slot on the Synergy compute module's motherboard, optimizing space and providing a direct, high-bandwidth connection. The use of Fibre Channel ensures reliable, low-latency data transport, which is critical for storage-intensive operations. The SFP+ connectors allow for the use of various pluggable transceivers (sold separately), offering flexibility in connecting to different types of SAN infrastructure, whether it be optical or copper cabling. This HBA is a key component for building out robust and scalable storage networking within the HP Synergy platform. Its dual-port design offers redundancy and increased throughput, ensuring high availability and performance for the applications hosted on the Synergy compute modules. The 872164-001 enables Synergy systems to leverage the full potential of modern SANs, providing a foundation for agile and efficient IT operations.
