HPE 592261-001 Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter 2 port 8 Gbit/s

SKU CH-0C2D-DY7MB

A dual-port Fibre Channel host bus adapter delivering 8 Gbit/s data transfer with RoHS environmental certification

  • Dual-port design doubles connectivity for redundant storage links
  • 8 Gbit/s transfer rate moves large datasets quickly
  • RoHS certification confirms environmentally responsible manufacturing
  • HPE engineering delivers enterprise-grade reliability for critical workloads
  • Two Fibre Channel ports simplify SAN integration and scaling

Dual-Port 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel Adapter

The HPE 592261-001 is a dual-port Fibre Channel host bus adapter designed for servers that connect to 8 Gbit/s storage-area networks. It provides two independent ports for redundant fabric connections or bandwidth aggregation in enterprise environments.

Replacing Single-Port or 4 Gbit/s Adapters

This card replaces single-port adapters when a second fabric path is required for high availability, or upgrades 4 Gbit/s links when the storage array and switch fabric already support 8 Gbit/s throughput. The jump is worthwhile only when the surrounding infrastructure can deliver the higher line rate.

Practical Limits of the 8 Gbit/s Interface

The 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel interface caps sustained throughput at the line rate defined by the standard, so performance cannot exceed what the switch ports and storage controllers also support. RoHS compliance confirms restricted-substance requirements are met, but the adapter does not accelerate workloads beyond the fabric speed.
