Description
The Broadcom 9600W-16e Tri-Mode PCIe Gen 4.0 enhanced HBA (eHBA) delivers next-generation connectivity, scalability, and performance for demanding enterprise data center environments. Engineered for high-bandwidth workloads, this adapter supports up to 240 SAS/SATA drives or 32 NVMe devices, enabling exceptional flexibility across storage architectures.
Built on Broadcom’s 24G SAS technology with PCIe Gen4 x16 throughput, the 9600W-16e provides increased IOPS, reduced latency, and the reliability required for mission-critical applications. Advanced security features—including Secure Boot and SPDM Attestation—ensure hardware integrity, while SMART and temperature monitoring provide proactive insight for system health. SafeStore key management supports secure encryption environments, and full UBM readiness makes it suitable for modern modular server designs.
Ideal for hyperscale, enterprise, and performance-optimized data centers, this adapter includes both full-height and low-profile brackets for flexible deployment.
