Description
The IBM 42D0408 is a dual-channel Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) designed to connect IBM servers to Storage Area Networks (SANs). Operating at 4Gb/s per port, this adapter provides high-speed, reliable connectivity essential for enterprise-level storage environments. The dual-channel design offers redundancy and increased throughput, ensuring continuous access to storage resources. Utilizing the PCI-X bus, the 42D0408 is compatible with servers equipped with PCI-X slots, which were common in high-performance enterprise systems. Fibre Channel technology is the standard for high-speed SANs, offering low latency and high bandwidth, making this HBA ideal for demanding applications such as large databases, virtualization, and high-performance computing where data access speed and reliability are critical. This HBA is a key component for building robust and scalable storage infrastructures. It enables servers to communicate efficiently with Fibre Channel storage arrays, facilitating high-availability and disaster recovery solutions. The IBM 42D0408 ensures that data can be accessed and transferred rapidly and reliably between servers and storage devices.
