What type of interface does the FCA2408 343069-001 require on the host system?

The adapter is defined as a 64 bit 133MHz PCI X Fibre Channel host bus adapter. This means it requires a compatible 64 bit PCI X expansion slot in the server that operates at 133MHz. Buyers should ensure that their systems provide this specific PCI X interface to support proper installation and operation.

How many Fibre Channel ports are available on the HP StorageWorks FCA2408 343069-001?

The FCA2408 343069-001 is described as a 2Gb per second single port 64 bit 133MHz PCI X Fibre Channel host bus adapter. The single port designation confirms that the card offers one Fibre Channel connection, which is suitable for designs requiring a dedicated link rather than multiple ports on a single adapter.

Is the FCA2408 343069-001 suitable for environments standardized on PCI X?

Yes, this model is explicitly categorized as a 64 bit 133MHz PCI X Fibre Channel host bus adapter. That classification means it is intended for environments where servers provide PCI X slots at 64 bit, 133MHz. It is relevant for infrastructures that continue to operate standardized PCI X server platforms.

What general product category does the HP 343069-001 FCA2408 belong to?

The HP 343069-001 FCA2408 is categorized as a network adapter, specifically a Fibre Channel PCI X host bus adapter, more precisely a 2Gb per second single port 64 bit 133MHz PCI X Fibre Channel HBA. This categorization distinguishes it from other adapter types such as Ethernet network interface cards.
