  • PCI Express 2.0 host interface for server compatibility
  • Low-profile MD2 form factor fits dense chassis
  • Multi-mode optical fibre support for short-range links

HPE LPe12002 dual-port 8 Gbit/s HBA

The HPE LPe12002 is a low-profile MD2 Fibre Channel host bus adapter with two optical ports running at 8 Gbit/s. It connects to the host through a PCI Express 2.0 slot and supports multi-mode fiber for storage-area-network links.

Suits two-port 8 Gbit/s SAN links

This card fits servers that need a pair of 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel connections over multi-mode fiber in a low-profile slot. It will not serve builds that require single-mode optics, higher transfer rates, more than two ports or a different host interface.

Two ports at 8 Gbit/s on PCIe 2.0

The decisive specification is the dual-port 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel interface presented through a PCI Express 2.0 connection. Confirm that the server provides a compatible low-profile slot and multi-mode cabling before ordering.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the LPe12002 is operating at 8 Gbit/s after installation?

Check the adapter BIOS or HPE management software; both will report the negotiated link speed for each of the two Fibre Channel ports.

What ships with the AH403A and what must I source separately?

The low-profile MD2 card itself is included; multi-mode optical transceivers and LC cables for the two ports are not supplied.

Which form factor should I select for a low-profile PCIe 2.0 slot?

The LPe12002 uses the low-profile MD2 form factor measuring 6.6" by 2.7", designed for that slot type.
