Product Description
The IBM 00P2995 is a single-port Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) designed to provide high-speed connectivity for servers to Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs). Operating at 2 Gigabits per second (Gb/s), this adapter ensures efficient data transfer rates necessary for demanding storage applications in enterprise environments. The adapter utilizes the PCI-X interface, a parallel bus standard that offers significantly higher bandwidth compared to older PCI interfaces, enabling faster communication between the server and storage devices. This HBA is a critical component for businesses that require reliable and high-performance access to their storage infrastructure. By connecting servers to a SAN, the 00P2995 facilitates centralized storage management, improved data availability, and enhanced disaster recovery capabilities. It adheres to the Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP), ensuring interoperability with a wide range of SAN components, including switches, directors, and storage arrays from various vendors. The low-profile design of the IBM 00P2995 allows it to be installed in a variety of server chassis, including those with limited internal space, offering flexibility in system configuration and upgrades. This makes it a practical choice for both new server deployments and for enhancing the storage connectivity of existing systems. The adapter is engineered for stability and performance, making it a dependable solution for mission-critical data access.
