Product overview

This is the HPE LPe1605 16Gb/s dual-port fibre channel mezzanine HBA for BladeSystem c-class (emulex), order code 718203-B21. A card that fits the slot may still be unsupported by the array vendor's compatibility matrix, which is the document that decides support cases. We check that matrix, not just the slot.

Quotes are itemised down to the accessories, so nothing that is needed to make the part work is left off and discovered later.

What you get ordering this from us

Ordered by part number

The order is placed against 718203-B21, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.

No substitutions without asking

If we cannot supply the exact code we tell you what we can supply and why, rather than shipping an equivalent and letting you find out.

Answered by a human

A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.

Questions buyers ask about this part

Is 718203-B21 genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes — new and sealed, with the HPE warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
Will 718203-B21 work in my server?
Send us the server model or service tag and we will confirm before you order. Part numbers alone do not always settle it — firmware revision and platform generation matter, and this is the check that prevents a return.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes — POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.
