Looking for a high-bandwidth HBA solution to meet the requirements ofincreasing server virtualization and consolidation? Finding it difficultto realize the full bandwidth potential of your server running I/Ointensive applications?

The HPE StoreFabric SN1100Q16Gb Host Bus Adapters deliver twice the I/O performance of 8 Gb HBAs,it takes storage networking performance and efficiency to the nextlevel. They enable rapid storage and retrieval of critical informationwhen using high bandwidth cloud applications and storage intensiveapplications such as backup, database transactions and rich media.Designed for increased virtual machine density and bandwidthrequirements, the SN1100Q 16Gb HBA products enable more applications andvirtual machines to run on a single server and port, resulting inreduced cabling.

The SN1100Q 16Gb HBAs are backwardcompatible with 8 Gb and 4 Gb networks and will protect your current andfuture IT investments.


High-performance, Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters
The HPE StoreFabric SN1100Q 16Gb Host Bus Adaptersdeliver twice the I/O performance of 8 Gb Fibre Channel (FC) HBAs.
Moving to 16 Gb technology provides the infrastructure required for the more powerful servers and data intensiveapplications in virtualized environments.
When using storageintensive applications like backup/restore, database transactions,virtualization and rich media, the improved I/O performance enablesfaster storage and retrieval of data.

HighPerformance and Enhanced Capability For Critical Workloads and High SLAEnvironments
The HPE StoreFabric SN1100Q 16Gb FibreChannel Host Bus Adapters supports for N_Port ID virtualization (NPIV)and industry standards-based Class-specific control (CS_CTL), providesend-to-end quality of service (QoS).
Delivers 16Gbps line rateper physical port, and increases the number of virtual machines (VMs)per each physical HBA Port that can be supported.
Advanceddiagnostics capabilities when used in conjunction with HPE StoreFabricB-series FC switches can reduce troubleshooting and downtime withsupport for features like D-port diagnostics, Link Cable Beaconing(LCB), Read Diagnostic Parameters (RDP), enhanced FDMI, FC Ping and FCTrace Route.
Data center administrators do not need to concernthemselves with multiple requests from the virtualized serverspotentially creating conflict.

AdditionalBandwidth
The HPE StoreFabric SN1100Q 16Gb Host BusAdapters allow IT departments to do more with less: less hardware, lesspower, less cooling, less personnel, and less budget.
Theyoptimize existing resources by deploying an effective adaptive serversolutions.
Scale physical resources through consolidation andvirtualization.
