The HP QMH2672 16Gb Mezzanine Fibre Channel Host Bust Adapters The HP QMH2672 16Gb Mezzanine Fibre Channel Host Bust Adapters provide a step into the 16Gb/s future with greater performance and advanced, embedded support for virtualized environments. Their introduction brings SAN infrastructure components to a higher level of performance and efficiency with the ability to deliver twice the I/O performance of 8Gb FC HBAs. The HP QMH2672 is backward compatible with 8Gb storage networks, providing investment protection and full port isolation design. Improved Storage Performance The HP QMH2672 provides a greater performance with the capability to deliver twice the throughput of 8Gb/s FC HBAs. It can provide close to 1 million IOPs and offers full port isolation, with each port having its own independent processor, memory, and driver for consistent performance. Better Optimized for Virtualization Designed for environments with greater virtual machine density and bandwidth requirements, the HP QMH2672 enables more applications and virtual machines to run on a single server and port. This results in reduced cabling and higher return on IT investment. It also supports advanced features like QoS for MS Hyper-V vFC function. Investment Protection The HP QMH2672 is backward compatible with 8Gb FC storage networks, providing interoperability with over 10,000 products.
