All of 0CK9H1,CK9H1,0YCVFG,YCVFG,WVT0T,P0TRP,0WVT0T,0P0TRP are part numbers and point to the same Dell QLogic QLE2692 16Gbps Dual Port Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter (HBA).
This is a high-speed networking card designed to connect Dell servers to a Fibre Channel storage area network (SAN).
A quick refresh on some definitions here:-
Dual Port:
The adapter has two independent Fibre Channel ports, allowing for redundant connections to the SAN or increased bandwidth through link aggregation.
PCIe:
This indicates the type of interface used to connect the HBA to the server's motherboard (likely PCIe 3.0 x8 for this model).
Low Profile:
Some part numbers here refer to the low-profile version of the card, making it suitable for servers with limited height expansion slots.
Why would Dell have multiple part numbers for the same part?
Well, many manufacturers like Dell have their own specific part numbers (like 403-BBMT for P0TRP,as an example here,) in addition to the original manufacturer's part number (likely WVT0T in this example)-in this case these Fibre Channel HBAs are manufactured by QLogic (now part of Marvell).
This is for various reasons, including, but not limited to:-
- ::Branding and Inventory: Dell uses its own part numbers for easier tracking, inventory management, and integration within their systems.
- ::Specific Configurations: There might be slight variations in the Dell-branded card compared to a generic QLogic QLE2692, such as firmware or included accessories.
- ::Pricing and Support: Dell's part number ensures it's sold and supported through their channels.
