HPE InfiniBand XDR Adapters deliver extremely fast, efficient network connectivity, significantly enhancing system performance for AI factories and cloud data center environments. The HPE InfiniBand XDR Adapters include single-port and dual-port options. The single-port adapters are offered in InfiniBand XDR speeds (800 Gb/s) and ethernet (2x400GbE) with OSFP connectors. The dual-port adapters are offered in InfiniBand XDR (400 Gb/s) and ethernet (400GbE) enabled with QSFP112 connectors. They seamlessly integrate with next-gen NVIDIA networking platforms, providing up to 800 Gb/s of end-to-end connectivity.

Do you want to improve your performance and bandwidth without increasing your hardware complexity?

The HPE Synergy 6820C 25/50Gb Ethernet Adapter provides more than two times the bandwidth compared to 10/20Gb adapters. Therefore, it simplifies hardware implementation by reducing the number of adapters, associated switches and compute modules required to achieve higher bandwidth.

The networking acceleration on this adapter alleviates the CPU utilization, increases the number of virtual machines (VMs) placed on each server, and improves the cloud scale efficiency. Pairing with the HPE Synergy high-density 50G Ethernet switching solution, this adapter provides high throughput and low latency to implement intelligent and flexible networks.

The HPE SN1700Q 64Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) enable any HPE ProLiant server to share a highly resilient storage array such as the HPE Alletra Storage Array. Any HPE ProLiant with a Fibre Channel (FC) HBA can be configured to share storage. This type of design is a Storage Area Network (SAN). A FC Switch is used between the HPE ProLiant servers and the storage to direct data traffic to and from the server and storage.

A SAN is an excellent design for high availability, and high performance, using block-based design complementary to databases, online transaction processing, and enterprise resource processing. The SAN also enables different generations of FC products to interconnect allowing for phased upgrades or longer investment protection options.

Would you like to increase your network’s I/O performance while simplifying the connection between HPE Synergy Compute modules and complex storage environments? Designed for the HPE Synergy Composable Fabric, HPE Synergy 5830C 32Gb Fibre Channel (FC) Host Bus Adapter (HBA) connects Synergy Compute resource pools to SANs over 32 Gb native FC fabrics. This provides high-performance due to low latency connectivity to the HPE Synergy Virtual Connect FC modules and Brocade® FC Switch modules. The HPE Synergy 5830C supports advanced virtualization, security, dual-port isolation, dynamic power management and low CPU utilization features. Provisioning and updating HPC Synergy 5830C are easy, reliable and fast using HPE Synergy software-defined, template-driven, frictionless operation. The HPE Synergy Composer automatically coordinates proper firmware and driver including staging updates to execute and avoid workload disruption.

When your environment has multiple workloads across multiple physical servers, how will you optimize your data? 
The HPE SN1620E 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is the server connection to the Storage Area Network (SAN). Database applications, high volume virtual server configurations and traditional data protection benefit from high bandwidth, low latency, and high I/Os delivered on a SAN. The growth in enterprise flash storage and the deployment of servers with multi-core processors is driving the need for high performance storage networking to prevent application operation gridlocks. The FC host bus adapter (HBA) is a critical element of this storage network to improve storage performance. The HBA offers flexibility and investment protection by supporting two generations of older infrastructure like FC Switches and Directors and two generations of newer infrastructure. This level of investment protection is critical when the buying cycles of servers and storage differ.

Is your data center poised to take the 16 Gb step in Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity?

The growth in enterprise flash storage and the deployment of servers with multi-core processors is driving the need for high performance storage networking to prevent application performance bottlenecks. The FC Host Bus Adapter (HBA) is a critical element of this storage network to improve storage performance.

The HPE SN1200E 16Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters deliver the high bandwidth, low latency and high IOPs to meet any application requirements, from online transaction processing or data warehousing to backup/restore and OpenStack Cinder block storage.

Supporting higher virtual machine density on powerful host servers, the SN1200E 16Gb HBAs delivers increased ROI on enabling more applications and virtual machines to run on a single server and I/O port without impacting SLAs. The 16 Gb FC HBA is backward compatible with 8 and 4 Gb FC storage networks to protect legacy investments.

Are you looking for an upgrade path to improve Storage Area Network performance for your ProLiant servers?

The HPE SN1610Q 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) provides significant I/O performance and security benefits over existing 16 Gb SAN solutions. Even if the SN1610 is introduced into a new ProLiant server, the Fibre Channel standard enables backward compatibility to 16 Gb infrastructure. Additionally, the HPE SN1610Q 32Gb Fibre Channel HBA is forward compatible to 64 Gb and future speeds. The exponential effect of newer servers and infrastructure helps accelerate databases, host more virtual machines, support emerging technologies such as NVMe, and reduce total cost of ownership. The HBA delivers better business outcomes across multiple industry verticals that rely on high-performance, data-intensive, and reliable connectivity from servers to storage.

Are you looking to modernize your data center with Non-volatile Memory Express (NVMe) paradigms, while insuring the integrity of your data is safe from malicious agents?

NVIDIA Ethernet Adapters for HPE are advanced cloud network interface cards with NVMe offload capabilities and cryptographic functionalities to accelerate and secure mission-critical data center applications such as security, virtualization, SDN/NFV, Big Data, machine learning, and NVMe-based storage. We provide two adapter options. Either two ports of 100GbE connectivity or two ports of 25GbE connectivity paired with proven cryptographic capabilities that accelerate and secure cloud and data center workloads.

Storage acceleration such as NVMe-oF TCP are built into the adapters, enabling seamless upgrade paths from existing storage paradigms to NVMe and persistent memory semantics.

It also provides enhanced security for your data in an unsecure world.
