HPE SN1610E 32Gb Fibre Channel HBA — 2-Port PCIe Gen3 Enterprise Adapter

Designed for the demanding needs of modern data centers, the HPE SN1610E 32Gb Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter delivers outstanding performance, reliability, and scalable connectivity for mission-critical workloads. This dual-port 32Gbps FC HBA is engineered to handle the increasing size and complexity of enterprise storage environments, from large databases and analytics to virtualization-heavy infrastructures and backup-intensive operations. With a robust feature set that combines high bandwidth, low latency, and enterprise-grade manageability, the SN1610E helps you maximize storage throughput, improve I/O efficiency, and simplify SAN management across diverse platforms.

  • Exceptional bandwidth per port: Each of the SN1610E’s two Fibre Channel ports delivers up to 32Gbps of full-duplex bandwidth, enabling rapid data transfers for large-scale databases, live analytics, and high-velocity backups. The dual-port design supports scalable fabrics, redundant paths, and multipath I/O, reducing congestion and providing predictable performance under heavy workloads. This means faster file transfers, quicker dataset refreshes, and minimal bottlenecks during peak periods.
  • Optimized for modern data centers: With a PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface, the SN1610E provides a fast, low-latency data path from the server to the SAN. The architecture minimizes host CPU overhead, improves IOPS, and sustains steady throughput for latency-sensitive applications such as ERP, online transaction processing, and virtualized environments. Dense rack deployments and cloud-ready workloads benefit from reliable storage connectivity without sacrificing compute efficiency.
  • NVMe over Fibre Channel (NVMe-FC) support: For organizations adopting NVMe-based storage, the SN1610E supports NVMe-FC connectivity on compatible storage arrays. This capability unlocks ultra-low latency access to NVMe devices while preserving the benefits of a mature Fibre Channel SAN. By enabling NVMe-FC, you can consolidate storage networks, simplify management, and accelerate data-aware workloads that demand sub-millisecond response times.
  • Enterprise-grade reliability and management: Built for nonstop operation in busy data centers, the SN1610E features robust error detection, high-availability design, and advanced diagnostics. It integrates with HP management ecosystems such as HP OneView and supported firmware tooling, enabling proactive health monitoring, firmware updates, and easy lifecycle management. The result is lower unplanned downtime, faster issue resolution, and a clearer path to predictable storage performance across your SAN fabric.
  • Broad compatibility and easy deployment: The HBA is designed for broad compatibility with HP servers and third-party platforms, supporting major operating systems and virtualization environments. It works with standard SAN fabrics, zoning, NPIV, and multipath software, helping you deploy a resilient, scalable storage network quickly. Whether you’re refreshing an existing chassis or expanding a new data center, the SN1610E offers flexible integration with your storage infrastructure.

how to install HPE SN1610E 32Gb Fibre Channel HBA

  • Power down the server and unplug from power. Open the chassis to locate an appropriate PCIe slot (typically PCIe 3.0 x8 or higher) for the NIC/FC HBA card.
  • Insert the SN1610E into the PCIe slot and secure the card to the chassis with a retaining screw. Ensure there is adequate clearance for full-slot height and that no cables obstruct the card.
  • Connect Fibre Channel cables from the HBA to your SAN fabric or storage array, confirming port link status and proper loopback if available for initial testing.
  • Power on the server and boot into the operating system. Install the latest HPE driver package and firmware using recommended management tools (such as HP SUM or equivalent vendor utilities) to ensure optimal performance and compatibility.
  • Configure the HBA in the OS or SAN management environment: set up zones, enable NPIV if required, and verify link speeds and state using the HBA management interface or SAN fabric coordinator. Validate connectivity to storage targets and run basic I/O tests to confirm stability.

Great toy
Color: Grey
My girl loves this toy. She has a lot of toys but this is her favorite. She is a 26 lb mini golden and we have had it over a year. It is just now starting to show wear. Once it is completely worn out I will buy it again!

15 Minutes….with update x2
Color: Orange
Within 15 minutes my 10-month old puppy had one of the moose antlers torn half off. I’ll see if he is able to destruct any more of this “indestructible” toy. If it holds up I’ll come back and upgrade the number of stars but for now…not impressed. UPDATE: Sadly he was able to rip it open via the appendages (the legs). The main body of the toy seems pretty tough but no dog is going to keep away from the legs. Downgrade to 1 star. UPDATE #2: I just received my second attempt at using this “indestructible” toy. This time I went with the rino since the legs are rope and not a sewn on leg. Well, in about 5 minutes my puppy had the horn torn and the horn provides direct access to the inside stuffing. As mentioned above, the legs are rope. The design was pretty smart in that both the front legs is one posted of rope going through a hole made in the stuffed toy. Same for the rear legs. This prevents the dog tearing them off and getting access to the stuffing. Sadly the horn being torn off right away makes this toy destructible. I think the only way they may be successful calling this an indestructible toy would be if they made a ball out of the body material or perhaps something in the shape of a bone.

AWESOME TOY for aggressive chewers
My 4 legged fur baby has only had for a few days. Now we’ve purchased several others in the past and he LOVES them. EXTREMELY durable. He is a dachshund and loves to destroy his toys. It’s almost like it’s a mission to see how fast to get the stuffing and squeakers out of his toys and can say he has been unable to destroy any. Now the reason I gave this only 4 stars is because the end of the tail has hair like material and he did start tearing this apart. Was finding the hair on his blanket and hanging out of his mouth. So I just trimmed the tail and he is back to loving on his toy. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Cute and my dog loves it
My dog loves toys she can play rough with both her teeth and paws and this one was loved the second it came out of the packaging. We liked that the eyes are sewn patches so nothing to swallow if it detaches (other than the material). The knotted ropes that form it’s arms and legs actually move through the body from side to side, which makes tugging games fun and interesting. We also liked that there were no dangling easy-to-chew off bits, for example, the ears are tiny nubs so she can’t get them off with her teeth easily. The stuffing is also firm and full so it’s like a soft toy to cuddle up with but with rope limbs to sink her teeth into. She rates it highly.
