HPE X710-DA2 Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter PCIe 3.0 x8 10 Gbit/s 2-port SFP+

SKU CH-Z771-3JNRN

PCI Express 3.0 x8 card with two 10 Gbit/s SFP+ fibre ports for host bus connectivity

  • PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface delivers high-throughput connectivity
  • 10 Gbit/s data rate supports bandwidth-intensive workloads
  • Two SFP+ ports enable flexible fibre channel links
  • Plug-in card form factor fits standard PCIe slots
  • HPE-branded adapter integrates with ProLiant server ecosystems

HPE X710-DA2 10 Gbit/s Fibre Channel Adapter

The HPE X710-DA2 is a plug-in card that adds two 10 Gbit/s Fibre Channel ports to a server. It connects through a PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot and uses SFP+ transceivers for fibre cabling. The adapter is built for storage-area-network traffic in data-centre environments.

Suited for dual-port 10 Gbit/s SAN links.

This card suits administrators who need redundant 10 Gbit/s connectivity to Fibre Channel fabrics. It does not serve environments that require 100 Gbit/s Ethernet links or QSFP28 connectivity. Builders needing more than two ports should look at a different adapter.

PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot requirement

Installation requires an available PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot in the host server. The bus width and generation determine the maximum throughput available to the two ports. Verify the slot is free and wired for x8 operation before purchase.
