Speed generations and reach
The cards here negotiate down to slower links, so a newer HBA can join an older fabric: QLogic states that its 16GFC QLE2690 and QLE2692 are backward compatible with 4GFC and 8GFC, and Broadcom's Emulex LPe35002 negotiates 32GFC, 16GFC and 8GFC automatically. Shortwave reach falls as speed rises:
| Top speed | OM2 | OM3 | OM4 | Cards on this page |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8GFC | 50 m | 150 m | 190 m | Dell MFP5T and RW9KF (QLogic QLE2562), Dell C855M (Emulex LPe12000), HPE 82Q (489191-001) |
| 16GFC | 35 m | 100 m | 125 m | Dell CK9H1 (QLE2692), Dell P3T0T (QLE2690), Emulex LPE16002, HPE SN1000Q (699765-001) |
| 32GFC | 20 m | 70 m | 100 m | Dell PD89Y and CGT2C (Emulex LPe35002), Dell TY4GR (QLogic QLE2770), HPE SN1600E |
Reach figures: QLogic's QLE2690 data sheet for 8GFC and 16GFC, Cisco's MDS transceiver data sheet for 32GFC.
Fitting an FC HBA
An FC HBA is the server end of a SAN: it reaches the storage arrays through Fibre Channel switches. QLogic builds its 2690-series cards on PCIe 3.0 x8 and Broadcom builds the LPe35000 series on PCIe 4.0 x8, so both suit an x8 or wider slot, such as the up to eight PCIe 3.0 slots of a PowerEdge R740; blade cards like the QLogic QME2572-based Dell 2H47D fit blade servers instead. Check each listing for the bracket height and for whether optics ship with the card; FC optics are on optical transceivers.
For directly attached shelves and tape, see SAS HBAs; for SAN storage itself, storage arrays, and the background in SAN vs NAS vs DAS. Each HBA carries an Enterasource warranty whose term is on its listing. All adapter types: host bus adapters.
