HPE SN1600 Series 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter QuickSpecs
Fibre Channel HBAs deliver predictable, low-latency, lossless connectivity from servers to shared storage-so customers can run performance-critical workloads faster, scale virtualization efficiently, and protect their SAN investment as they evolve to next-gen speeds and FC-NVMe. The HPE SN1600 Host Bus Adapter family brings data center infrastructure components to a higher level of performance and efficiency with the ability to deliver twice the bandwidth performance of 16Gb HBAs, higher I/Os, and lower latency, while maintaining compatibility. |
|
|
Family Overview A Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) is a server peripheral designed to be installed internally into a server and allow its server to externally transport data to a shared storage device like an HPE storage array. The Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter is externally coupled to another Fibre Channel device using a special optical cable and optical connector. Several to dozens to hundreds of servers with HBAs are usually connected to a Fibre Channel switch or Fibre Channel director which controls the data traffic between the servers and the connected storage devices. The storage devices are designed to be shared with servers and applications to optimize performance and availability. These storage devices are split into fault-tolerant, primary storage arrays and secondary storage devices used for data protection. With a Fibre Channel HBA installed in every participating server connected to a Fibre Channel switch or Fibre Channel director and each switch or director attached to one or more storage devices, the resulting configuration is called a Storage Area Network or SAN based on the Fibre Channel (FCP) or FC-NVME protocol.
Compatibility and Investment Protection All HPE SN1600 Series Host Bus Adapters support the Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) and NVMe Protocol (FC-NVMe) at an industry-defined 32Gb/s - bandwidth. This generation of Host Bus Adapters is backwards compatible to 8Gb/s and 16Gb/s Fibre Channel devices. Additionally, all HPE SN1600 Series Host Bus Adapters are compatible to the new HPE 64Gb/s Fibre Channel products. Fibre Channel HBAs and Fibre Channel switches offer connectivity to all HPE's primary and secondary storage devices including HPE Alletra Storage MP, HPE Alletra, Primera, 3PAR, Nimble, HPE XP8, MSA, StoreOnce, and other storage devices following the FCP and/or the FC-NVMe protocol. (Check HPE Single Point of Configuration Knowledge (SPOCK) for complete compatibility).
The HPE SN1600 Host Bus Adapter family brings data center infrastructure components to a higher level of performance and efficiency with the ability to deliver twice the bandwidth performance of 16Gb HBAs, higher I/Os, and lower latency while maintaining compatibility. Other generations of Fibre Channel offer similar support as displayed in the table below:

The benefit of backward and forward compatibility design is to allow customers the flexibility to select an upgrade path of components based on time, budget, or functionality. A SN1600 series HBA would be compatible with any combination of 8Gb, 16Gb, 32Gb, and 64Gb switches and storage devices in a SAN. Always check ProLiant platform, Operating System, and Storage configurations on HPE Single Point of Configuration Knowledge (SPOCK) database. |
|
Connectivity |
|
All Fibre Channel components are connected using special optical cables and special optical lasers called SFPs (Small Form Factor Pluggable). Each HPE Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter port is shipped with a pre-installed, performance matching SFP. No additional SFPs are required for the HBA. Each optical cable requires an SFP installed on each end to ensure data transport from one Fibre Channel device to another. This strict cable design is an industry standard and adopted to ensure interoperability and quality data delivery. Two cabling standards exist - shortwave and longwave. Shortwave or (SW) is most popular and allows for cables lengths up to 100m between servers, switches, and storage. For the shortwave standard, all cables and SFPs must match and use the shortwave design. The shortwave cabling standard uses a 50micron filament. The shortwave term is also interchangeable with the term "multi-mode" (mm). Longwave (LW) is a standard offering providing longer cable distances ranging from 1km to 10km and longer. The Longwave standard has the same requirement that all components must be longwave to function. You cannot intermix shortwave and longwave cabling and SFPs. Longwave components are less popular and may require special ordering from HPE. The longwave term is also interchangeable with the term "single mode" (sm). Cabling choices highlighted further into QuickSpecs. |

Workloads |
|
The Fibre Channel and FC-NVMe protocols leverage a block-based design which is best used with data intensive workloads. Those workloads leverage database deployments like Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Financial Applications, Commercial Reservation Systems, Support Systems, Virtual Server warehouses, Media & Entertainment, Video Surveillance Systems, traditional backup and restore, and large multi-server workload configurations. Customers that have multiple workloads on multiple physical or virtual servers are ideal candidates for a Storage Area Network where the data can be stored on a consolidated storage array instead of each individual server. Each server running these workloads connected to a SAN would require an HBA installed and connected to the Fibre Channel switch. |
|
|
|
Availability |
|
Shared SAN Storage arrays are designed to be highly resilient because customers require high speed, cost-effective capacity to their servers that host their mission critical and business critical applications. Storage Arrays are commonly rated using a percentage of "uptime" in form of 99.9999% ("Four Nines", "Five Nines, "Six Nines"). Each "9" represents a projected hour of downtime per year. For example, a 99.99% ("four nines") array is assumed to have no more downtime than 52 minutes a year (and an uptime of approximately 8,759 hours out of 8,760 per year) whereas a 99.999% ("five nines") would be less than 6 minutes of downtime per year. Because storage is designed to be highly fault tolerant, SAN and Fibre Channel need to address high availability because of the "many servers to one storage" deployment in a data center. SANs can be designed to support and complement high availability storage with a highly fault tolerant design building a redundant data path configuration. Redundant, dual path design is a 'Best Practices' design. Generally, a highly fault tolerant storage array would require a fault tolerance SAN infrastructure. Fibre Channel design will guarantee frame delivery (lossless) and delivery in order. The dual path SAN design is to provide access to data at the array if a hardware failure occurs in the SAN. Should a SAN failure occur, the SAN reroutes data through the alternative data path. See the HPE SAN Design Reference Guide for more complete information. Internal and Partners Only) |

SPDM (Security Protocols and Data Models) |
|
A factory installed certificate assigned and unique to the FC HBA model. The certificate authenticates the adapter is a valid, trusted device on the PCI bus as verified by the ProLiant Management utility - ILO (Integrated Lights Out). Customers can be more confident that the PCI device is authentic and has not been substituted in the supply chain before delivery. Combine this feature with other HPE security features like HPE Compute Ops Management, HPE's Trusted Supply Chain initiative, Server Configuration Lock, Factory installed Security Labels, Silicon Root of Trust, UEFI Secure boot, and customers can build a formidable security defense within the ProLiant ecosystem. |
|
|
|
PQC (Post-Quantum Cryptography) |
|
Per NIST(National Institute of Standards and Technology), "encryption tools rely on complex math problems that conventional computers find difficult or impossible to solve. A sufficiently capable quantum computer, though, would be able to sift through a vast number of potential solutions to these problems very quickly, thereby defeating current encryption. The algorithms NIST has standardized are based on different math problems that would stymie both conventional and quantum computers." HPE and other manufacturers are taking preventative actions to enhance encryption algorithms generated by the adapter. These standards are being driven by US Federal Government agencies and have the support of other government agencies around the world. Customers will benefit knowing that products purchased today will not be vulnerable to attacks perpetuated by future quantum technology. |
|
|
|
End-to-End Data Encryption |
|
The new SN1620E can encrypt data in flight from the source (HBA) to the target device (Storage Array) by implementing the latest Fibre Channel FC-SP3 standard by default and eliminating the complexity and cost licensing of previous alternatives. With this level of hardware encryption, customers preserve the popular data services offered by the storage array offerings such as data compression and data dedupe. FC-SP3 standard enables In-flight encryption available to all customer data instead of application-level encryption that is limited to the application's data. |

|
T10 Protection Information (T10-PI) HPE 32GFC adapters support T10-PI for enhanced data integrity when connected to T10-PI enabled arrays. Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) and Error Correcting Code (ECC) are used to check Fibre Channel frames. T10-PI checks validate the data which is not necessarily checked during frame inspection. |
|
|
|
Forward error correction (FEC) FEC is enabled and improved at 32GFC as required by the FC Specification, automatically correcting transmission errors with redundant data and improving network performance and resiliency. |
|
|
|
Link cable beaconing (LCB) LED beaconing "blinks" the Fibre Channel port lights where a physical fibre optic cable is connected. The light indicators on both ends of a physical link simplifies cable identification and management. |
|
|
|
D-Port Diagnostics Quickly run automated diagnostic tests in a single step, across multiple adapters, servers, and fabric components to assess connectivity. Optics and cable problems are identified and resolved. |
|
|
|
Fabric Device Management Interface (FDMI) FDMI enables discovery of devices such as Fibre Channel host bus adapters (HBAs). Check connectivity to SAN devices and query the switch management server for in-depth details on connected devices |
|
|
|
Read Diagnostic Parameters (RDP) Identify the source of network and media errors like cyclic redundancy check (CRC) and loss of sync (LOS) by remotely accessing diagnostic information from anywhere in the fabric. |
|
|
|
Fabric-assigned Port Worldwide Name (FA_WWN) Administrators can preconfigure WWN settings at the switch port allowing Fibre Channel adapter to acquire port WWN address from the 16Gb, 32Gb, or 64Gb fabric. This allows SAN administrator to configure SAN zoning without need for servers to be present. |
|
|
|
Firmware Integrity Protection with Hardware Root of Trust The HPE SN1610Q, SN1610E, and SN1620E 32Gb FC HBAs incorporate a hardware RoT that keeps malicious firmware from being introduced into the adapter.

HPE Premier Flex Cables Product Overview (Required to connect Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapters to other Fibre Channel devices)
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
HPE Premier Flex cables are optical cables designed for universal data center deployments. These deployments include Fibre Channel and Ethernet designs. The cables, like the SFPs, are designated shortwave and longwave and must match the accompanying SFP as shortwave or longwave. There can be no intermixing of design. The Premier Flex cables appear thin based on the 50-micron internal filament, but the cables are designed for rugged data center deployment. The fiber optic cable routing can result in 90° bends when cables get caught in cabinet doors and kink. Data loss and transmission errors resulting from these common problems are difficult to troubleshoot, expensive, and increase downtime.
HPE Premier Flex OM4 fiber optic cables solve these problems by providing up to 10 times better bend performance than existing fiber cables. These revolutionary cables use bendable fiber optic technology that significantly improves bend performance over existing fiber cables. This bendability, combined with improvements in transmission clarity and bandwidth, allows HPE Premier Flex cables to transmit data over longer distances, at higher rates, with fewer transmission errors. The flexibility of these cables also enables simple, reliable installation, enhanced performance, and better signal integrity.
Additionally, HPE Premier Flex OM4 Fiber Optic Cables are tested and qualified to provide maximum performance across HPE's entire Fibre Channel and Ethernet product families. The Fibre Channel feature, Link Cable Beaconing (LCB), can assist in locating port to port connections and their associated cable simplifying cable, connection, and port issues.
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Notes: - "Fibre Channel" is the name for the data transfer protocol (FCP) and "Fiber Optic" is the name of the cabling standard using a glass filament as the transport. Shortwave (SW) and longwave (LW) components cannot be mixed on the same connection. - Fiber optic multimode OM4 50/125um duplex cable assembly with LC/LC duplex connectors - Available in 1m to 50m cable lengths | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

HPE Fiber Optical Transceiver (XCVR) - Family Information
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
All HPE Host Bus Adapters (HBAs) are shipped with the appropriate number of Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers (XCVR). Dual Port HBAs (2P) are shipped with two SFP transceivers. Single Ports HBAs (1P) are shipped with a single SFP. The SPF transceivers (XCVR) match the bandwidth of the HBA. For example, the SN1610Q - HPE SN1610Q 32Gb 2-port Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter would ship with two (dual port) 32Gb/s SPFs pre-loaded in the adapter. No ordering of SFPs is needed on the HBA. All SFP Transceivers are multi-mode or shortwave (SW). For longwave (LW) or single-mode fiber connections an alternative SFP (LW) and longwave (LW) or single-mode cable must be ordered. Shortwave (SW) and longwave (LW) components cannot be mixed on the same connection.
SFPs may be required for Fibre Channel Switches and Directors. Check the QuickSpecs of those products for SFP requirements - some HPE Fibre Channel Switches have SFPs pre-installed, and some Fibre Channel Switches and Directors do not have SKUs pre-installed and must be ordered separately. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
