Adapters

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?

HPE Storage Networking NVMe-oF Adapters 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
