Emulex and Qlogic have fiber channel cards available that many customers use with Dell servers. If you would provide the specific model again (R150?) we can look at more specifics if you would like.
Let us know how it goes

Ok, it's PowerEdge R510 Xeon E5630 CSE 2.1, and if it helps I have this number CSE8QTM751.
I appreciate the information

The listed cards are fiber channel cards.
Do you need fiber channel, or fiber optic ethernet? There is a huge difference between them.

Do you need a fiber channel card or an ethernet card (with a fiber optic port)? CNAs and fiber channel cards are probably not validated/tested/certified (by Dell) for Precision. However, fiber optic ethernet cards (1Gbit or 10Gbit) may be certified (but aren't in that list above).

Thank you for the quick reply. I appreciate it.
I would like to connect to a SAN via fibre. I apologize for the lack precision in my previous post.
Again, thank you for your time and attention.
thanks,chris

Your best chance is probably a Qlogic card like the QLE2460 (4Gbit/s) or if you only have PCI-X slots available a QLA2340 (2Gbit/s). Keep in mind that Dell has probably not validated any fiber channel cards in any of their desktops (including the non-rack workstations).
