Host Adapters

Is your remote office, department or company looking to consolidate data spread across multiple HPE ProLiant servers into a highly reliable and affordable SAN?
There are many benefits to a consolidated storage strategy. The HPE SN1100Q 16Gb Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) build a Fibre Channel connection when installed into an HPE ProLiant server and cabled to a switch and storage device.
Multiple physical HPE ProLiant servers and/or virtual servers can be routed using a Fibre Channel switch to an HPE storage array such as the HPE MSA, HPE Nimble Storage or HPE Alletra storage devices. This level of consolidation concentrates storage management on one storage device and provides an equally powerful and reliable connection for each server and its applications. Additionally, an onsite data protection device such as a disk or tape backup can leverage the same Fibre Channel infrastructure helping eliminate slow over-the-network backups.

Need a low cost, low power 1GbE adapter for your HPE ProLiant server?

The HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port BASE-T I350-T4V2 Adapter features a single chip solution, further reducing power requirements for 4 ports of 1 Gb Ethernet. The HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port BASE-T I350-T4V2 Adapter is PCI Express 2.1 x4 based on the latest Intel Ethernet Controller I350 designed for use with select HPE ProLiant rack, tower and density optimized servers.

Are you looking for a 4 port 1GbE adapter for your HPE ProLiant Server?

The HPE Ethernet 1Gb 4-port FLR-SFP+ I350-T4V2 Adapter features the next generation of Ethernet integration offering in a single chip solution on a FlexibleLOM form factor, further reducing power requirements for 4 ports of 1 Gb Ethernet. The adapter is the PCI Express 2.1 x4 based on the latest Intel Ethernet Controller I350 designed for use with select HPE ProLiant rack and scalable servers. Its FlexibleLOM form factor means customers now have a choice to meet growing infrastructure needs. It supports advanced features such as Large Send offload capability, TCP checksum and segmentation, VLAN tagging, MSI-X, Jumbo frames, IEEE 1588, and virtualization features such as Intel Virtualization Technology for Connectivity, VMware NetQueue, Microsoft VMQ and WOL, and power management technologies like Energy Efficient Ethernet.

Do you require SDN features, low-latency and high-bandwidth in your data center? TheHPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port FLR-SFP+ X710-DA2 Adapter offers the latest SDN features in a FlexibleLOM form factor. The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port FLR-SFP+ X710-DA2 Adapter is a feature rich, low power dual port PCIe v3.0 x8 lane adapter designed for use in HPE ProLiant Rack and Density Optimized servers.

Do you need an adapter that is big on capability and small on CPU utilization?

The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 537SFP+ FLR Adapter has been designed to efficiently deliver high performance, low latency an minimal CPU utilization by offloading many I/O processing within the adapter. Low latency dramatically improves application performance and frees up CPU resources in the host allowing it to do tasks that are more important.

Are you looking for an easy and cost effective transition to 10GBASE-T with enhanced security features? The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port BCM957416 Adapters utilize CAT 6A cabling with distances up to 100 meters and is backward compatible to existing 1GBASE-T infrastructure. This allows quick and easy incremental improvement of network speed without either changing the cables or major upgrade of equipment. These adapters help prevent, detect and recover from cyber attacks by protecting applications, data and server infrastructure by authenticating digitally signed firmware via a Root of Trust architecture. In addition, they offer Secure Boot, Device-level Firewall and other advanced security features.

Stuck in network traffic at 10Gbps? Time to take the Express Lane with HPE 25GbE Adapters. Current approaches to managing the increasing data center traffic require higher bandwidth and is cost prohibitive, restricting organizations from easily growing as their needs grow. Legacy technologies are struggling to handle the increased throughput and lack the capabilities to cost-effectively scale. For the rise in volume of mobile data and video and the frequency at which it is accessed, The HPE Ethernet 10/25Gb 2-port SFP28 CX4121B Adapter for select HPE ProLiant Server DL family of rack and HPE Apollo Servers delivers high-performance solutions. It allows Telco, services providers, financial institutions and enterprises to meet the demanding needs of more bandwidth.

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.
