The HP HITX5509143-A is a 4-port Fibre Channel Adapter (CHA) assembly for the HP StorageWorks XP series of enterprise disk arrays, HP’s badged version of Hitachi’s Lightning/Universal Storage Platform hardware sold under a joint HP-Hitachi OEM arrangement. The CHA assembly provides the array’s host-side connectivity, in this case four Fibre Channel ports, allowing connected servers to address the array’s storage over FC rather than the array’s other supported protocols. It is enterprise storage infrastructure rather than ProCurve networking hardware, despite carrying an HP part number, because the underlying array is Hitachi-built. Genuine CHA assemblies of this kind are a routine requirement when restoring a failed host adapter or adding Fibre Channel connectivity to an existing XP array. Specifiers should confirm the exact XP array model and CHA slot generation before ordering, as channel adapters are array-generation specific. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks HP storage components to support ongoing maintenance projects. Please contact our sales team for current stock and pricing.
