ATTO Technology CTFC-162P-000 16Gb/s Dual-Channel Switch Module

SKU CH-BYNS-43ZD6 MPN CTFC-162P-000

Dual-channel 16Gb/s Fibre Channel adapter delivering 3200MB/s throughput per port via PCIe 3.0 x8 interface

  • Dual-channel 16Gb/s Fibre Channel for high-density storage connectivity
  • PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface enables 3200 MB/s full-duplex throughput per port
  • Backward compatible with 8Gb/s and 4Gb/s Fibre Channel devices
  • TAA compliant for government and regulated procurement requirements
  • Full-height bracket design fits standard server expansion slots

Dual-Channel 16Gb/s Fibre Channel HBA

The ATTO Celerity FC-162P is a dual-channel 16Gb/s Gen6 Fibre Channel host bus adapter built on a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface. It targets system integrators and OEMs designing high-performance storage infrastructures that require deterministic, low-latency connectivity to Fibre Channel SANs. The card provides two independent ports in a single full-height slot. TAA compliance makes it eligible for government and regulated procurement.

Thermals, noise and power in normal use

The adapter operates within standard PCIe slot power limits and uses a passive heatsink, so it adds no active fan noise to the chassis. Heat dissipation scales with link utilisation, and the dual-port design keeps total throughput inside the thermal envelope of a typical server airflow path. No auxiliary power connector is required.

What the bundled accessories change

A full-height bracket is included for direct installation in standard server chassis. Backward compatibility with 8Gb/s and 4Gb/s Fibre Channel devices allows phased upgrades without replacing existing switches or storage arrays. The single-slot, dual-port layout preserves PCIe lanes for other expansion cards.

Questions about this item

How do I install the CTFC-162P-000 in a server?

Insert the card into a full-height x8 PCI Express 3.0 slot and secure the bracket; the step often missed is verifying the slot runs at Gen 3.0 x8 rather than a slower link width.

What maintenance or replacement will the FC-162P need later?

The adapter has no user-serviceable parts; plan to replace the module if a port fails or when the infrastructure moves beyond 16 Gb/s Fibre Channel speeds.

What performance limit appears first under sustained load?

Each port is capped at 3200 MB/s in full-duplex mode, so that per-port ceiling is the first hard limit you will hit during sustained transfers.
