Product Description
The HP AB234AR is a Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) from the StorageWorks line, specifically the FCA2214 model. This card is engineered to provide a high-performance connection between servers and storage area networks (SANs). It features a single Fibre Channel port that operates at a speed of 2 Gigabits per second (Gb/s), utilizing an LC connector for optical transceivers. Designed with a PCI-X interface, this HBA is compatible with servers that have PCI-X expansion slots, which were common in enterprise environments requiring high-bandwidth I/O. The 2Gb/s speed ensures efficient data transfer to and from storage devices, crucial for demanding applications such as databases, virtualization, and high-transaction environments. By enabling robust Fibre Channel connectivity, the AB234AR allows servers to access shared storage resources reliably and with low latency. This is fundamental for building scalable and high-availability storage solutions in enterprise data centers. The single-port design makes it suitable for configurations where redundancy is managed at other levels or for less critical connections.
