Product Description
The IBM 39U3587 is a high-performance Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) engineered to provide robust connectivity between servers and storage area networks (SANs). With its dual 16Gbps Fibre Channel ports, this adapter is capable of delivering significant bandwidth, ensuring rapid and efficient data transfer to and from storage devices. The 16Gbps speed is crucial for modern enterprise environments that handle large volumes of data and require low latency for critical applications. A key feature of the 39U3587 is its support for Long Wave (LW) optical transceivers, enabling connections over distances of up to 10 kilometers. This extended reach is invaluable for large data centers or geographically dispersed storage solutions, allowing for greater flexibility in SAN design and implementation. The HBA utilizes the PCI Express interface to connect to the server's motherboard, providing ample bandwidth to support the high-speed Fibre Channel traffic. This IBM HBA is designed for mission-critical applications where data availability and performance are paramount. It ensures reliable communication with storage arrays, facilitating high-speed I/O operations for databases, virtualization platforms, and other data-intensive workloads. The 39U3587 is a vital component for organizations looking to build or upgrade their SAN infrastructure with high-speed, long-distance Fibre Channel connectivity.
