Product overview
HP lists AP862B as a 16x8Gb FC 6x1GbE fibre channel Switch. Switches are chosen on port mix and uplink capacity rather than headline throughput. This one is 16x8Gb. Tell us what it is aggregating and we will confirm the uplinks and optics you will also need.
Ask for the optics and rail kit on the same quote; a switch that arrives without them still cannot be racked.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against AP862B, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
