R2J62A is the HPE SN1610E 32Gb 1-port Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter, a single-channel 32GFC adapter that uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 connection and auto-negotiates 32, 16 and 8 Gbps. It carries both the Fibre Channel protocol and FC-NVMe.
A pre-installed 32 Gbps shortwave SFP+ transceiver with an LC fibre connector comes in the box, together with a standard bracket, a low-profile bracket and documentation. Shortwave runs reach up to 100 m, and the optic must be matched to shortwave cabling.
Security features include Virtual Machine ID (VM-ID), which lets storage networks prioritise and monitor traffic down to the virtual machine, and secure firmware download that protects the authenticity of the firmware. A hardware root of trust validates firmware signatures against hardware-embedded keys, so only certified firmware runs on the adapter. Firmware upgrades are non-disruptive.
The SN1610E is the single-port counterpart of the R2J63A 2-port SN1610E. HPE supports the adapter on Windows Server 2022 and 2025, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and 10, VMware ESXi 8 and 9, and SUSE Linux 15.
The HPE spare number for the adapter is P14421-001.
