The Dell LPE36000 Dual Port FC64 Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA) delivers enterprise-grade storage performance and streamlined management for data centers that demand reliable, high-speed connectivity to SAN storage. Built on Emulex technology, this dual-port 64Gbps Fibre Channel (64GFC) HBA is engineered to optimize I/O throughput, reduce latency, and scale with growing storage needs. Its low-profile PCIe form factor makes it an ideal choice for dense server environments, blade servers, and server rooms where space is at a premium yet performance cannot be compromised. With robust driver support, advanced diagnostics, and streamlined deployment capabilities, the LPE36000 is designed to shorten the time-to-value for storage networks and help IT teams meet demanding service level agreements.

  • Dual-port 64Gbps Fibre Channel connectivity provides abundant bandwidth for large databases, virtualization, and demanding SAN workloads. With two independent ports, you can multipath for high availability and improved I/O efficiency, delivering sustained performance even under heavy traffic or during failover scenarios.
  • Low-profile PCIe form factor fits into dense server chassis and blade servers, enabling efficient utilization of rack space while preserving full Enterprise-class functionality. This compact design is ideal for modern data centers that prioritize power efficiency and footprint reduction without sacrificing performance.
  • Advanced management functionality simplifies deployment and ongoing administration. Features such as remote firmware upgrades, diagnostics, and policy-based management help administrators roll out HBAs across fleets of servers faster and with fewer manual steps, shaving days off typical installation cycles.
  • Optimized IOPS per watt for contemporary storage workloads. The LPE36000 is designed to maximize efficiency, enabling higher throughput per watt while helping reduce overall energy costs in storage-centered environments. This makes it well-suited for virtualization hosts, large-scale backups, and data-intensive analytics tasks.

how to install Dell LPE36000 Dual Port FC64 Fibre Channel HBA, PCIe Low Profile

Step 1: Power down the server and disconnect all power sources. Remove the chassis cover according to the server manufacturer's guidelines to access the PCIe slots.

Step 2: Identify an available PCIe slot that supports a low-profile card and is compatible with the HBA’s form factor. Remove the slot cover if necessary to accommodate the full card length.

Step 3: Insert the LPE36000 into the PCIe slot with even, firm pressure until it seats fully and the retention mechanism engages. Ensure there are no obstructions and the card is securely seated.

Step 4: Connect the Fibre Channel fabric cables to the two ports. Route cables to storage arrays or switches, ensuring proper fiber polarity and link integrity. Confirm that cables are latched and not under tension.

Step 5: Reassemble the server chassis, reconnect power, and boot the system. Install or update the appropriate drivers and firmware for the LPE36000 from the vendor’s support portal, following the on-screen prompts.

Step 6: In the operating system, configure Fibre Channel zoning, multipath I/O (MPIO), and storage array presentation as required. Validate device recognition, perform basic I/O tests, and monitor health and performance through the built-in management tools.

Step 7: If your environment uses a management server or automation framework, push baseline configurations to standardize HBAs across your fleet for consistent performance and reliability.

Very Good For The Price
Size: 6.2", Size: 6.2"
This came in today and it was very easy to put on the switch. It does have bubbles but they will disappear after a little while. I just got this switch used the other day and it did not have a screen protector. The screen had a few minor scratches, but the screen protector makes those scratches seem like they never even existed. The reactivity on the screen is very good. It is practically the same as it would be without the screen protector.

Super easy install!
Size: 7.9"
Super easy to install, you really can’t mess it up since the guide is so helpful! Plus you get extra shields just in case! I’ve had mines for months and it hasn’t cracked so the durability is great! Scratch free and smudge free!

The ultimate water bottle
Color: Iced Breeze, Size: 24 Ounces
I can’t believe I’m so excited about a water bottle. The design is amazing - I love that there’s no straw poking up but there’s still a straw sip function. I like that the carrying hook doubles as a lid locking mechanism. This bottle feels very sturdy but it’s sleek and easy to grab - I have small hands and it isn’t a problem for me to drink from with one hand. It’s also really nice that this bottle fits in standard couple holders both at the gym in the machines and in my car. The color selection is so fun and I am pleased that my bottle looks exactly as pictured. My water has stayed cold and my ice cubes frozen for over 12 hours now. Cannot recommend enough!

Keeps drinks cold all day
Color: Very, Very Dark, Size: 24 Ounces
We got this Owala bottle for our son to use as his everyday school water bottle, and it has been excellent. The 24oz size holds plenty of water for the school day without being overly bulky or heavy to carry around. The insulation works extremely well. Drinks stay cold all day long, even when the bottle sits in a backpack for hours. That’s probably the feature we’ve been most impressed with so far. It’s also been great for car trips since it keeps water cold for extended periods without needing constant refills. The design is really well thought out too. The built-in straw makes it easy to drink from quickly during class or while traveling, and the lid feels secure and leak-resistant when closed. It also has a clean, modern look that feels a little more premium than many standard water bottles. Build quality feels solid overall, and it seems designed to hold up well to everyday use from school, sports, and travel. Overall, this has been a fantastic everyday water bottle and definitely lives up to the hype. Keeps drinks cold, holds a good amount of water, and works equally well for school or road trips.

Cup holder friendly AND functional!
Color: Denim, Size: 24 Ounces, Color: Denim, Size: 24 Ounces
I have a dupe of this cup in a 32oz version and I’m in love with it except for one thing, it doesn’t fit in the cup holders of my vehicles very well. For Father’s Day, my husband needed an insulated cup for when he works outside, his current one doesn’t fit in a cup holder. This was a perfect option for him since he likes the one I have. First things first: this thing keeps liquids COLD for a VERY long time. Haven’t put anything hot into it and don’t plan to so I cannot attest to that. It’s lightweight, durable, and the versatility with the straw is really what makes this cup stand out. You can use a straw OR take a sip without changing adaptors or adding a straw. The straw is basically built into the spout. It’s leakproof which I greatly appreciate. With this being on sale I jumped on it. These are such nice cups, and I can confirm they fit the cup holders of my vehicles from my 22 RAV4 to my 05 Corolla. This is a definite buy and I really hope my husband gets me one since my dupe doesn’t fit in my cup holders. As for the 24oz of this cup, it fits. The colors are fun. It’s unique, and extremely functional.
