  • 1.  Power11 and HBA 16GB

    I have a question. Does Power11 no longer support 16GB HBAs? EN2A and B are being withdrawal, Is a new card coming, or will everything be 32GB and 64GB?

    Example for S1122 Power:

    PCIe3 x8 2-port Fibre Channel (32 Gb/s); (FC EN1A and EN1B; CCIN 578F)

    The PCIe3 x8 2-port Fibre Channel (32 Gb/s) Adapter is a PCI Express (PCIe) generation 3 (Gen3) x8 adapter. The adapter can be used in either a x8 or x16 PCIe slot in the system. This adapter is a high performance is based on the Emulex LPe32000-series PCIe host bus adapter (HBA). The adapter provides two ports of 32 Gb Fibre Channel capability that uses SR optics. Each port can provide up to 32 Gb Fibre Channel functions simultaneously. Each port provides single initiator capability over a fiber link or with NPIV, multiple initiator capabilities is provided. The ports are SFP+ and include an optical SR transceiver. The ports have LC type connectors and use shortwave laser optics. The adapter operates at link speeds of 8, 16, and 32 Gbps and automatically negotiates to the highest speed possible.
