Fibre Channel Storage Paths For UCS Rack Servers

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is a Cisco Fibre Channel HBA based on the QLE2692-CSC model, with two 16G FC SFP ports on a PCIe 3.0 x8 card for UCS C220 M7 and UCS C240 M7 servers. The Marvell QLogic QLE2692-CSC also fits UCS C220 M5, UCS C240 M5, UCS C480 M5, UCS C125 M5, UCS S3260 M5, UCS C220 M6, UCS C240 M6, UCS C225 M6 and UCS C245 M6. For search and PO matching, Cisco C220 M5 network adapter requests that involve Fibre Channel map to this configuration. The ports connect to FC SAN fabric and MDS 9100, MDS 9200 or MDS 9700 switches. UCSC-PCIE-BD16GF is the Emulex dual-port 16G FC sibling for the same C220 M5 HBA slot class.

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF price for new stock is $2,763.60. UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF refurb price is $183.75. UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

Technical Details

Two 16G FC ports carry 3,200 MBps full-duplex line rate per port, so the SAN switch ports and optics must be matched for 16GFC multimode operation. PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface maps to riser 1 or 2 in a UCS C220 M5, and the card height is HHHL. 2,048 concurrent logins and 2,048 active exchanges per port set the zoning and host-scale boundary. NPIV, FC-NVMe, FCP-SCSI, QoS CS_CTL, FEC, T10 PI, BIOS boot and UEFI boot are the feature set. UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF ships with SR optical transceivers installed and a standard-height bracket installed; a low-profile bracket is included in the clamshell. Operating temperature is 0°C to 55°C, and the low-profile card measures 167.6 mm deep by 69.4 mm high.

Ordering

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is offered new sealed and certified refurbished. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested in a compatible host, with the board, connector and bracket inspected and every port links at rated speed. Order the full-height or low-profile bracket state to match the server slot, and match the FC fabric speed before the PO. New sealed carries up to 3-year extended warranty; certified refurbished carries up to 1 year. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply. UK, EU, US and MEA stock/RMA, RMA with advance replacement, PO accepted and Net-30 for government apply.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Slot and CPUs

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF uses riser 1 or 2 in C220 M5. A one-CPU C220 M5 takes one PCIe option card in slot 1; a two-CPU C220 M5 takes slots 1 and 2.

S3260 expander

An S3260 M5 installation needs UCS-S3260-IOE2 for the PCIe module bay. Without that I/O expander, the storage server has no slot for this Fibre Channel HBA.

Installed optics

The adapter ships with SR optical transceivers installed. For service replacement of the FC optical module, match UCSC-SFP-Q16GFA= and the multimode fiber reach for 16GFC.

Ordering forms

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF= is the spare form for this PID. UCSC-PCIEQD16GF-RF is Cisco-remanufactured and remains distinct from certified refurbished condition.

Best For

Failed HBA Replacement

A data center replacing a failed dual-port 16G FC path in a C220 M5 keeps the same QLE2692-CSC driver family and SR optical module type. The buyer should specify UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF, confirm riser 1 or 2, and match the bracket height before the PO.

SAN Expansion

A storage team adding FC paths to a C240 M5 or C480 M5 needs two 16G FC SFP ports per card and PCIe 3.0 x8 electrical service. The buyer should match the switch-side FC speed, zoning plan and multimode fiber class before the PO.

S3260 Storage Nodes

An S3260 M5 storage chassis uses this HBA through the UCS-S3260-IOE2 I/O expander, which provides two x8 PCIe half-height slots for I/O adapters. The buyer should order or verify the I/O expander before adding the FC HBA.

Not Suitable If

Ethernet server uplinks

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is a Fibre Channel HBA, not an Ethernet adapter. A C220 M5 Ethernet 25G SFP28 requirement takes UCSC-PCIE-QD25GF.

32G FC fabric

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF rates each port at 16G FC. A C220 M5 or C480 M5 dual-port 32G FC requirement takes UCSC-PCIE-QD32GF.

S3260 without IO expander

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF fits the S3260 M5 through UCS-S3260-IOE2. An S3260 order without that I/O expander has no PCIe module slot for this HBA.

Questions & Answers

What is UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is the Marvell QLogic QLE2692-CSC dual-port 16GFC Fibre Channel HBA for Cisco UCS rack and storage servers. The base PID is the configured adapter, UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF= is the spare form, and UCSC-PCIEQD16GF-RF is Cisco-remanufactured.

What servers does UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF fit?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF fits UCS C220 M7, UCS C240 M7, UCS C220 M5, UCS C240 M5, UCS C480 M5, UCS C125 M5, UCS S3260 M5, UCS C220 M6, UCS C240 M6, UCS C225 M6 and UCS C245 M6. The S3260 M5 fit uses the UCS-S3260-IOE2 I/O expander.

What network adapter does a UCS C220 M5 use for Fibre Channel?

A UCS C220 M5 uses UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF for a dual-port QLogic QLE2692 16G Fibre Channel HBA in riser 1 or 2. The same C220 M5 HBA group also takes UCSC-PCIE-BD16GF, UCSC-PCIE-QD32GF, UCSC-PCIE-BS32GF and UCSC-PCIE-BD32GF.

What are the main specifications for UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF has two 16G FC SFP ports, a PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface, low-profile PCIe card dimensions of 167.6 mm depth by 69.4 mm height, and HHHL placement in C220 M5 risers. Operating temperature is 0°C to 55°C.

What ports and speeds does UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF use?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF uses two Fibre Channel SFP ports rated for 16G FC line rate. The adapter also works with 8GFC and 4GFC multimode distance classes, so the far-end FC switch, optical module and fiber class must match the SAN speed plan.

What transceivers work with UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF ships with Marvell SR optical transceivers installed. The service Fibre Channel optical module PID is UCSC-SFP-Q16GFA=. At 16GFC, multimode reach is 35 m on OM2, 100 m on OM3 and 125 m on OM4.

How many UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF adapters fit in a server?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF quantity depends on the host. A one-CPU C220 M5 takes one PCIe option card in slot 1, while a two-CPU C220 M5 takes slots 1 and 2. A C480 M5 takes PCIe cards under its CPU and slot population rules.

What software does UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF need?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF needs UCS Manager or C-Series standalone release 3.2(1d) minimum for C220 M5 and C240 M5, 3.2(2b) minimum for C480 M5, and 4.1(1a) minimum for C125 M5. 4.1(3n) is the recommended release for those M5 rack-server paths.

Does UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF handle FC-NVMe?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF handles FC-NVMe and FCP-SCSI traffic on the same Fibre Channel port. NPIV provides virtual port operation, and each port carries 2,048 concurrent logins and 2,048 active exchanges for SAN zoning and host-scale planning.

How do UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF ordering variants work?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is the configured base PID for the adapter. UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF= is the spare form used when ordering the same adapter as a spare. UCSC-PCIEQD16GF-RF is Cisco-remanufactured, and certified refurbished is a separate condition with ORM testing and warranty terms.

What is the difference between UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF and UCSC-PCIE-BD16GF?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is the QLogic QLE2692 dual-port 16G Fibre Channel HBA, while UCSC-PCIE-BD16GF is the Emulex LPe31002 dual-port 16G Fibre Channel HBA. Choose the QLogic PID for QLE2692 driver continuity and the Emulex PID for LPe31002 driver continuity.

What is the difference between UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF and UCSC-PCIE-QD32GF?

UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF is the QLogic QLE2692 dual-port 16G Fibre Channel HBA, while UCSC-PCIE-QD32GF is the QLogic QLE2742 dual-port 32G Fibre Channel HBA. Choose the 16G PID for a 16G FC fabric and the 32G PID for a 32G FC fabric.

What is the lifecycle status of UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF?

Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF. The PID remains in the UCS C-Series third-party Fibre Channel HBA family and serves the UCS C-Series and UCS S-Series hosts named for the adapter.

What warranty does ORM offer for UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF?

ORM offers UCSC-PCIE-QD16GF new sealed with up to 3-year extended warranty and certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested in a compatible host. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply.
