Both Brackets Q0L12A HPE StoreFabric SN1600E 32Gb Dual Port Fibre Channel HBA 870000-001 QO0L12-63001HPE Q0L12A

The HPE Q0L12A (StoreFabric SN1600E) is a dual‑port 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA), built for HPE ProLiant, Apollo and Synergy enterprise servers, delivering high‑speed SAN storage connectivity for databases, virtualization, backup‑restore and heavy I/O workloads. It is equipped with two SFP+ fibre ports, auto‑negotiating at 32Gb /16Gb /8Gb Fibre Channel speeds, supporting compatible SFP+ optical transceivers and fibre cables.

Host interface is PCIe 3.0 x8, backward compatible with PCIe 2.0 slots. Both full‑height and low‑profile brackets are supplied for flexible installation inside 1U/2U rack servers. Maximum power consumption is 10.8 W.

Built‑in enterprise‑grade features include Forward Error Correction (FEC), QoS traffic prioritization, Fabric‑Device Management Interface, firmware upgradability, and persistent port naming. It optimizes SAN performance, reduces I/O latency and ensures stable connectivity to HPE storage arrays and Fibre Channel fabrics.

Supported operating systems cover Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Microsoft Windows, VMware ESXi and Hyper‑V. Widely used for SAN deployment, storage migration, mission‑critical database and virtualized infrastructure projects.
