This low-profile, half-height PCIe adapter fits into space-constrained server deployments while delivering enterprise-grade Fibre Channel connectivity. The HPE SN1610Q 32Gb 1-port FC HBA (part number R2E08A) brings next-generation storage performance to HPE ProLiant and Synergy environments, combining Gen 6 (32GFC) speed with intelligent auto-negotiation and robust data protection. Storage architects and network engineers will appreciate its compact form factor—complete with both low-profile and full-height brackets—without sacrificing throughput or reliability in mission-critical SAN deployments.
Built on the Marvell QLogic 2771 ASIC and backed by HPE's comprehensive support ecosystem, this adapter integrates seamlessly into existing infrastructure through HPE OneView and HPE iLO management platforms. The R2E08A leverages T10-DIF end-to-end data integrity protection to safeguard storage transactions, while NPIV support enables flexible virtual SAN segmentation. Operating across Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware vSphere platforms, this Fibre Channel adapter serves organizations requiring proven compatibility with HPE's certified server and hypervisor stack. For procurement teams evaluating SAN fabric upgrades, the combination of proven reliability, integrated HPE call-home diagnostics, and SPP firmware management simplifies deployment and lifecycle support.
