HPE StoreFabric SN1610Q 32Gb 2-Port Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter

The HPE StoreFabric SN1610Q 32Gb 2-Port Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is designed to provide high speed connectivity between HPE ProLiant servers and Fibre Channel storage area networks. It enables reliable and high bandwidth communication for modern enterprise data centers where fast access to shared storage is essential.

This adapter delivers two Fibre Channel ports that support data transfer speeds of up to 32 gigabits per second per port. Compared with earlier 16Gb Fibre Channel adapters, the 32Gb technology significantly improves bandwidth and reduces latency, allowing servers to process storage requests faster and handle more demanding workloads.

The SN1610Q adapter connects to the server using a PCI Express 4.0 x8 interface, enabling high throughput communication between the server and storage infrastructure. The adapter supports SFP+ fibre connections and integrates seamlessly with Fibre Channel switches and SAN storage arrays used in enterprise environments.

The adapter supports advanced storage technologies including NVMe over Fibre Channel and traditional FCP-SCSI protocols. This allows organizations to transition from legacy storage architectures to modern NVMe based storage solutions while maintaining compatibility with existing infrastructure.

With performance capabilities of up to 2 million IOPS and improved latency control, the adapter is ideal for high performance workloads such as enterprise databases, virtualization clusters, high transaction applications and large scale analytics environments.

The adapter also includes enterprise security features such as hardware root of trust and digitally authenticated firmware updates. These capabilities help protect storage networks from unauthorized firmware modifications and improve overall infrastructure security.

Designed for compatibility with HPE ProLiant Gen10, Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers, the SN1610Q adapter provides a powerful storage networking solution for modern data centers that require high performance, reliability and scalability.
