Product Description
The HP AB379-63001 is a high-performance Host Bus Adapter (HBA) from the HP StorageWorks family, designed to provide robust connectivity to Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs). This adapter features two 4Gb/s Fibre Channel ports, enabling high-speed data transfer between servers and storage devices. It is built on the PCI-X bus architecture, specifically a 64-bit interface running at 266MHz, which was standard for high-performance servers of its era, ensuring ample bandwidth for demanding storage I/O operations. This HBA supports Multi-Mode Fibre Channel connections, typically utilizing LC connectors and optical transceivers for communication over fiber optic cables. Multi-mode fiber is suitable for shorter to medium distances within a data center. The dual-port design offers redundancy and increased throughput, allowing for failover configurations or load balancing across multiple SAN fabric switches or storage controllers, thereby enhancing the reliability and availability of storage access. The HP AB379-63001 is an essential component for servers that require direct, high-speed access to SAN-attached storage. It is particularly relevant for enterprise environments that rely on Fibre Channel technology for their storage infrastructure, supporting applications that demand low latency and high I/O performance. Its integration into HP's StorageWorks ecosystem ensures compatibility and optimized performance within HP server and storage solutions.
