Product Description
The HPE A6826-69001 is a dual-port 2Gb/s Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) that provides essential connectivity for servers to access Fibre Channel storage area networks (SANs). This adapter utilizes the PCI-X 64-bit interface, which was common in enterprise servers of its era, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of compatible systems. Each of its two ports can operate at a speed of 2Gbps, offering sufficient bandwidth for many storage-intensive applications and workloads prevalent during its design period. This HBA is built to deliver reliable and consistent performance for connecting servers to storage arrays. It supports the Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP), the standard for data transmission over Fibre Channel networks. The dual-port design enhances redundancy and allows for load balancing, providing a more resilient storage connection. Its backward compatibility with 1Gb Fibre Channel ensures it can function in environments with mixed speed infrastructure. Designed for enterprise-level deployments, the HPE A6826-69001 is a foundational component for building or expanding Fibre Channel storage infrastructure. It facilitates efficient data transfer between servers and storage, crucial for database operations, application performance, and overall system responsiveness. The adapter requires appropriate drivers for installation and operation within the server's operating system.
