Product Description
The IBM 46M4649, based on Brocade's 815 technology, is a high-performance Host Bus Adapter (HBA) designed for enterprise-level Fibre Channel networking. It provides a single channel capable of operating at 8Gb/s, delivering substantial bandwidth for connecting servers to Storage Area Networks (SANs). This speed is critical for demanding applications that require rapid access to storage, such as databases, virtualization, and high-performance computing. Utilizing the PCI-Express 3.0 x8 interface, this HBA ensures a high-speed, low-latency connection to the server's motherboard. The PCIe 3.0 standard offers double the bandwidth of PCIe 2.0, further enhancing data transfer rates. The x8 lane configuration provides ample bandwidth for the 8Gb/s Fibre Channel link, ensuring optimal performance without bottlenecks. This adapter is engineered for reliability and efficiency in mission-critical environments. It supports advanced Fibre Channel features, including error detection and correction, ensuring data integrity. The IBM 46M4649 is a key component for building robust and high-speed SAN infrastructures, enabling efficient storage connectivity for IBM and other compatible server systems.
