WHY CHOOSE THIS PRODUCT?

• Organizations choose the HPE StoreFabric 84Q when they need four-port 8Gb Fibre Channel connectivity in supported HPE server environments without moving to a newer FC generation. Compared with the 81Q and 82Q models, its four-port design provides greater port density for SAN connectivity, while the low-profile bracket improves deployment flexibility in compatible compact servers. Its included 8Gb SFP+ optics, HPE interoperability testing and three-year parts-exchange warranty make it suitable for infrastructure refreshes, replacement projects and lifecycle extension of established Fibre Channel storage environments.
