HP28696A Wide SCSI Controller - Options

Has anyone found a replacement for the HP28696A controller now that it isn't
covered under maintenance? I know it still is supported under T&M but I prefer
everything be covered with responce time limits etc...

Running HP H50 at 10.20.

To make a long story short: No

The trouble is that the G50 has an internal HP-PB bus. All of the newer boxes
use an other bus system (HSC, PCI...) And this is the reason way the current
products are designed to run on buses different to the HP-PB
28696A is the only FW SCSI interface for the HP-PB bus
