Product Description
The HP KGPSA-BC is a Host Bus Adapter (HBA) that provides essential Fibre Channel connectivity for servers equipped with PCI-X slots. This adapter is characterized by its single 2Gb/s Fibre Channel port, utilizing an LC connector for optical media. Its operation at 133MHz on the PCI-X bus makes it suitable for integration into a range of HP ProLiant servers and other systems that were prevalent during the era of PCI-X technology. This HBA is designed to connect servers to Fibre Channel storage networks, enabling access to shared storage resources. While its 2Gb/s speed is modest by today's standards, it was sufficient for many enterprise applications and storage configurations in its time. The low-profile form factor allows it to be installed in smaller chassis or blade servers that have limited internal expansion space, offering flexibility in deployment for compatible systems. For organizations maintaining older infrastructure or requiring specific compatibility with legacy storage systems, the HP KGPSA-BC serves as a functional component for establishing Fibre Channel connectivity. It represents a cost-effective solution for extending the life of existing hardware or for environments where the performance demands do not necessitate higher-speed Fibre Channel interfaces.
