The HPE 16Gb Host Bus Adapters bring datacenter infrastructure components to a higher level of performance and efficiency with
the ability to deliver twice the I/O performance of 8Gb HBAs at lower latency. A 16Gb FC HBA purchased today is backward
compatible with 8 Gb and 4 Gb storage networks and will protect future investments. When using storage intensive applications,
such as backup/restore, database transactions, virtualization, and rich media, the increased performance of the 16 Gb infrastructure
enables more rapid storage and retrieval of critical information. Designed for environments with greater virtual machine density
and bandwidth requirements, the 16Gb HBAs enable more applications and VMs to run on a single host server and Fibre Channel
port, resulting in reduced cabling and a higher return on IT investment. The four port adapters are specially designed for PCIe slot
constrained servers which run workloads that demand extremely high storage networking bandwidth.
