Product Description

The HPE A9784-60001 is a sophisticated Multifunction Host Bus Adapter designed to streamline server connectivity by integrating two critical network interfaces onto a single PCI-X card. This adapter provides one 2GB Fibre Channel port, essential for high-speed access to Storage Area Networks (SANs), and one 1000Base-T port, offering standard Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for general network traffic. This dual-functionality is particularly beneficial in environments where consolidating network and storage interfaces is desired, reducing the number of expansion slots required in a server. The 2GB Fibre Channel port ensures robust and high-performance data transfer to SANs, while the Gigabit Ethernet port supports reliable network communication for applications, management, and data access. The PCI-X interface ensures sufficient bandwidth to handle the demands of both interfaces simultaneously. As a component from HPE (Hewlett Packard Enterprise), this HBA is built for reliability and performance in enterprise settings. It is designed for easy integration into compatible HPE servers and other systems that support PCI-X expansion slots. The A9784-60001 is an efficient solution for servers that need both high-speed storage connectivity and standard network access.
