The LPe1605 is an Emulex dual-port Fibre Channel host bus adapter that runs at 16 Gb/s or 8 Gb/s, built as a Type A mezzanine card for HPE BladeSystem c-Class. It works only with c-Class server enclosures and always connects through a BladeSystem interconnect module.
Supported blades are the ProLiant BL460c Gen9, BL660c Gen9, WS460c Gen9 and BL460c Gen10. It is not compatible with G7 and earlier blades or with 4Gb c-Class Fibre Channel interconnects.
Full 16 Gb/s speed needs the c7000 Platinum enclosure, while other c7000 enclosures and the c3000 limit it to 8 Gb/s. It works with 8Gb and 16Gb BladeSystem Fibre Channel switches and Virtual Connect modules.
Management is through Emulex OneCommand Manager, and firmware can be upgraded without taking the server offline or reinstalling the driver. NPIV supports up to 255 VPorts, performance reaches 1.2 million I/Os per second per channel, and BlockGuard (T10-DIF) covers end-to-end data integrity.
The board measures 3.5 in by 3.9 in and draws 11.3 W at most. The spare number is 718577-001.
Further adapters are available from HPE interface cards.
