Description

The HPE Synergy 5330C is a dual-port 32Gb Gen 6 Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter designed exclusively for HPE Synergy Compute Modules, delivering high-performance, low-latency SAN connectivity via a PCIe 3.0 x8 mezzanine interface. Running at 32 Gb/s per port, it doubles the link rate of 16GFC predecessors and is purpose-built for the HPE Synergy Composable Fabric — connecting compute resource pools directly to FC SANs through HPE Synergy Virtual Connect FC Modules or Brocade FC Switch Modules. Its minimal CPU overhead makes it ideal for high-density virtualised environments.

Managed through HPE Synergy Composer and HPE OneView, the 5330C supports automated firmware and driver staging to eliminate workload disruption during updates. Security is reinforced via a Root of Trust feature that validates firmware authenticity, while Boot from SAN capability reduces management overhead and increases uptime. Supported operating systems include Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware ESXi.

FAQs

Q: What servers is the HPE Synergy 5330C 32Gb FC HBA compatible with?
A: The HPE Synergy 5330C is designed exclusively for HPE Synergy Compute Modules. It installs as a mezzanine card (Type C, PCIe 3.0 x8) and connects to the HPE Synergy Composable Fabric via HPE Synergy Virtual Connect FC Modules or Brocade FC Switch Modules. It is not compatible with standard rack or tower servers.

Q: What is the maximum data rate of the 5330C, and how does it compare to 16Gb FC adapters?
A: The HPE Synergy 5330C operates at 32 Gb/s per port (Gen 6 FC), doubling the maximum link rate of 16 Gb/s Gen 5 FC adapters. This means you can achieve greater SAN throughput with fewer adapters, reducing both hardware costs and chassis slot consumption.

Q: Does the HPE Synergy 5330C support Boot from SAN?
A: Yes. The 5330C includes Boot from SAN capability, which allows compute modules to boot their OS image directly from a SAN-attached storage device. This reduces local storage dependency, simplifies OS deployment at scale, and improves uptime through centralised storage management.

Q: Which operating systems are supported by the HPE Synergy 5330C?
A: The 5330C supports Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), and VMware ESXi. HPE Synergy Composer handles coordinated firmware and driver staging across all supported operating systems to minimise disruption.

Q: How is the HPE Synergy 5330C managed?
A: The adapter integrates with HPE Synergy Composer and HPE OneView for centralised infrastructure lifecycle management, including automated firmware updates, driver staging, and health monitoring. The Broadcom OneCommand Manager application also provides adapter-level management and diagnostics.

Q: Can I purchase the HPE 870828-B21 in Australia and receive fast delivery?
A: Yes. The HPE Synergy 5330C 32Gb FC HBA (870828-B21) is available through iptrading.com.au, an Australian B2B IT hardware specialist. We offer fast shipping and expert pre-sales support across Australia for HPE Synergy components and server accessories.
