HPE 786040-001 CN1200E Dual Port 10GB Network Adapter

Detailed Specifications

The HPE 786040-001 is a quad-port 1GbE network adapter designed as a field-replaceable component for the HPE 3PAR StoreServ 7000 series of storage arrays. This adapter is purpose-built for enterprise data center environments where reliable network connectivity is critical for storage operations. It addresses the need for dedicated Ethernet ports for management, data replication, and iSCSI host connectivity, ensuring the storage system remains accessible and performant. This component provides four independent 1 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which can be configured to support a variety of network topologies. This allows for the implementation of redundant network paths to enhance fault tolerance or link aggregation to increase total available bandwidth for specific workflows. As a genuine HPE spare part, it guarantees seamless integration with the 3PAR operating system, maintaining system stability and support compliance for mission-critical storage infrastructure. Deployment of the 786040-001 involves installation into an available expansion slot within a 3PAR StoreServ controller node. The adapter is managed centrally through the 3PAR Service Processor and Command Line Interface (CLI), requiring no separate drivers or external management software. Its function is integral to the array's communication fabric, providing a robust and validated solution for maintaining or expanding network I/O capacity.
