HPE SN1700 series 64Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter | Family Overview
A Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is a server peripheral designed to be installed in a server and allows the transport of data to a consolidated storage device like an HPE Flash Array. The Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is externally coupled to a Fibre Channel switch which builds a Fibre Channel network allowing many servers access to the shared storage array. With a Fibre Channel HBA installed in every participating server, the resulting configuration is called a Storage Area Network or SAN based on Fibre Channel. The HPE 64GFC Host Bus Adapters bring datacenter infrastructure components to a higher level of performance and efficiency with the ability to deliver twice the bandwidth performance of 32Gb HBAs. A 64GFC HBA purchased today is backward compatible with 32Gb and 16Gb storage networks and will protect future investments.
