Host Adapters

When server infrastructure may be limiting the performance of the OLTP and database operations, what server upgrades are necessary to address potential performance bottlenecks and achieve more effective results?
The HPE SN1720E 64Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is designed for demanding mission-critical workloads and emerging applications. It supports HPE ProLiant, HPE Alletra Storage servers, and HPE Cray / HPE Superdome servers in a Fibre Channel SAN. Compared to the previous generation, the HPE SN1700E FC HBAs offers higher bandwidth, better latency, enhanced security, and operational efficiency for 64GFC. It provides seamless backward compatibility to 32GFC and 16GFC networks. When using storage-intensive applications, such as backup/restore, database transactions, virtualization, and rich media, the increased performance of the 64GFC infrastructure enables rapid storage and retrieval of critical information.

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.

What if you could increase I/O performance and improve network efficiency between HPE Synergy Compute sodules and complex storage environments? Designed for the HPE Synergy Composable Fabric, HPE Synergy 5330C 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) connects HPE Synergy Compute resource pools to SANs over 32 Gb native FC fabrics. It provides both high-performance and network efficiency. High performance is achieved through low latency connectivity to HPE Synergy Virtual Connect FC Modules and Brocade® FC Switch Modules while network efficiency is achieved through the HPE Synergy Composer automatically coordinating proper firmware and driver including staging updates to execute and avoid workload disruption

Do you want flexibility while being efficient? The HPE Synergy 4820C 10/20/25Gb Converged Network Adapter provides a path for 10G today and up to 25Gb tomorrow for Financial, trading, Telco and cloud service providers. This adapter converges Ethernet and FCoE onto a single connection simplifying hardware and reducing costs. Pairing with the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Synergy Switch solution, this adapter provides high throughput and low latency to implement intelligent and flexible networks connecting the server to the switch.

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.

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.

Do you have demanding workloads that require low latency? The HPE Ethernet 100Gb 1-port QSFP28 MCX515A-CCAT Adapter supports 100 Gb bandwidth that allows more network traffic and thus is ideal for telcos, cloud and service providers. This adapter has security features to keep out rogue updates that could slow you down. Plan for the future and get in the express lane with the 100 Gb adapter.

Is your data center constantly challenged to deliver increased security and reliability in a cost-effective and scalable solution for your network bandwidth?
The HPE Gen10 Plus Ethernet adapters are 1 Gb, 10 Gb, 10/25 Gb, 100 Gb, and 200 Gb Ethernet solutions that are scalable and compatible with HPE Gen10 Plus servers for hybrid cloud services, mobile data, and streaming video applications.
Your server is the foundation of your data center, but it doesn’t work alone. When one link in your component chain slows down, so does the rest of your operation. Keep your network and data flowing with a seamless ecosystem of HPE servers, networking adapters, transceivers, cables, and switches.
