Single-port 8Gbps FC adapter

The EMC LPE12000-E is a new single-port Fibre Channel host bus adapter built for enterprise storage-area networks. It connects through one LC interface and operates at 8Gbps, delivering deterministic throughput for block-level workloads. BlockGuard technology provides end-to-end data-integrity protection, and the PHP hot-swappable design allows module replacement without powering down the host.

Suits single-path SAN links

This card fits servers that need a single 8Gbps Fibre Channel path into an existing SAN fabric. Environments requiring dual-port redundancy, higher link speeds, or Ethernet-based storage protocols will need a different adapter class.

8Gbps link speed

The decisive specification is the 8Gbps Fibre Channel rate; if the fabric or storage array runs at a different speed, this adapter will not match the required performance tier.

Questions about this item

What slot type and bracket height does the LPE12000-E require for installation?

The card uses a standard PCI Express slot and ships with a full-height bracket; a low-profile bracket is not included.

Which step is commonly missed when installing the LPE12000-E into a server?

After seating the card, the LC transceiver must be inserted and the fibre patch cord latched before the host recognises the 8Gbps link.

What replaceable component on the LPE12000-E will need attention over time?

The hot-swappable LC transceiver module can be replaced independently if the optical interface degrades.
