A6829A - HP Dual Channel 64-Bit PCI Ultra160 LVD SCSI Interface Host Bus Adapter

Description

The HP A6829A is a high-performance adapter board designed to provide robust connectivity for Ultra-160 SCSI devices within server and storage environments. It leverages the 64-bit PCI bus, offering significantly higher bandwidth compared to older 32-bit PCI interfaces, which is essential for maximizing the performance of modern SCSI peripherals. This adapter features dual channels, allowing it to connect and manage two independent SCSI buses simultaneously. Each channel supports the Ultra-160 SCSI standard, which provides a maximum transfer rate of 160 MB/s per channel, enabling fast and efficient data transfer between the host system and connected storage devices such as hard drives, tape drives, or RAID arrays. The 68-pin connectors are compatible with LVD (Low Voltage Differential) and SE (Single-Ended) SCSI devices, offering flexibility in device compatibility. Designed for enterprise-class systems, the A6829A is a critical component for servers and storage arrays that require reliable and high-speed access to SCSI-based storage. Its dual-channel architecture and support for the Ultra-160 standard make it suitable for demanding applications such as database servers, high-performance workstations, and storage area networks where data throughput and device connectivity are paramount.
