49Y3730 - IBM 8GB Single -Port PCI-Express Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter with Standard Bracket Card

Description

The IBM 49Y3730 is a high-performance Host Bus Adapter (HBA) engineered to facilitate robust and efficient connectivity between servers and storage area networks (SANs). Featuring a single Fibre Channel port, this adapter is optimized for environments where reliable and high-speed access to shared storage is paramount. The 8Gb/s transfer rate ensures that data can be moved quickly, minimizing latency and improving application performance. Leveraging the PCI Express 2.0 x8 interface, the 49Y3730 provides a substantial bandwidth of 4 GB/s (full-duplex), which is critical for demanding I/O operations common in enterprise data centers. This advanced interface technology reduces bottlenecks and allows for seamless integration into modern server architectures. The x8 lane configuration further enhances its capability to handle intensive data traffic. This adapter is an essential component for building scalable and resilient storage infrastructures. Its design focuses on delivering consistent performance and reliability, making it suitable for mission-critical applications that require uninterrupted access to data. The IBM 49Y3730 is a key enabler for advanced storage solutions, supporting virtualization, high-availability clusters, and large-scale database environments.
