Questions about this item

Does the QLE2564-E-SP come with the standard bracket already fitted, or must a low-profile bracket be purchased separately?

The adapter ships with the standard-height bracket installed, so no extra bracket is required for a full-height server slot.

Should I choose the quad-port 8 Gb model or a dual-port version for a four-node cluster?

The QLE2564-E-SP provides four independent 8 Gb Fibre Channel ports on one PCIe 2.0 x8 card, letting you connect all four nodes without occupying additional slots.
