Brand New Original Stock LPE12002-AP 8Gb Fibre Channel X 2 HBA Card PCI Interface Ethernet Adapter for Network Wireless SFP Card

product overview

Emulex LPe12002-AP is a high-performance 8Gb/s dual port Fibre Channel host bus adapter (HBA) designed specifically for enterprise storage area networks (SANs). This adapter adopts PCI Express (PCIe 2.0) interface, providing a high bandwidth, low latency connection solution, suitable for virtualization, database, cloud computing, and critical business storage environments.

As an Emulex LightPulse ® LPe12002-AP, a member of the series, has been optimized for performance, reliability, and management capabilities, making it suitable for data centers that require high availability and scalability.

Key features and advantages

1. High performance and low latency

8Gb/s fiber channel speed (backward compatible with 4Gb/s and 2Gb/s), providing up to 800MB/s full duplex bandwidth per port.

Dual independent port design, supporting parallel I/O operations, optimizing multi-path storage access (MPIO).

Emulex's fifth generation architecture reduces CPU overhead and improves storage performance in virtualized environments.

2. High reliability and enterprise level functionality

Support multi-path I/O (MPIO) and link redundancy to ensure business continuity.

Hardware level error detection and recovery (FEC, CRC) to improve data integrity.

SAN Boot from SAN support simplifies deployment of diskless servers.

3. Virtualization and Cloud Optimization

Supports N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV), allowing a single HBA port to host multiple virtual fiber channel connections.

Compatible with virtualization platforms such as VMware iPadOS, Microsoft Hyper-V, KVM, etc., optimizing virtual machine storage performance.

4. Simplify management and maintenance

Emulex OneCommand ® Manager provides centralized management and supports SNMP and REST API integration.

Built in Emulex Beacon diagnostic tool for quick troubleshooting.

Support hot plug for easy maintenance and upgrades.

5. Energy saving and environmentally friendly design

Dynamic Power Management (DPM) technology reduces idle power consumption.

Compliant with RoHS environmental standards and suitable for green data centers.
