requiring the utmost in performance or value, but typically have a longer lead-time .
The HPE 332T is a dual-port, low-cost, low profile 1Gb adapter featuring the BCM5720 Broadcom single-chip solution in a PCIe 2.0
compliant form factor designed for select HPE ProLiant servers.
It delivers full line-rate performance across all ports with low power consumption, providing Ethernet connectivity ideal for virtualization,
security, server consolidation, and network segmentation.
Supported advanced features include Large Send and Receive offload capability, TCP checksum and segmentation, VLAN tagging, MSIX, jumbo frames, IEEE 1588 (Precision Time Protocol - PTP), and virtualization features such as VMware NetQueue and Microsoft Virtual
Machine Queue (VMQ).
Support for HPE Sea of Sensors 3D Technology enhances server performance while reducing energy use and expense.

At a Glance Features
•Industry-leading hardware integration for low power
•Dual-port 1GbE provide up to 4 Gb full duplex aggregate throughput per adapter
•Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) support
•Optimized for virtual servers
•Improved small packet performance
•Supports the Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE)
•IEEE 1588, IEEE 802.1as (hardware assisted)
•In addition to Gigabit Ethernet, this adapter supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps providing compatibility
with Ethernet and Fast Ethernet twisted pair networks.
•This adapter ships with a pre-installed full height bracket and a half height bracket is also supplied to ensure
trouble free installation. The included quick install card guides the user in the bracket exchange process.

Jumbo Frames
This adapter delivers 2 Gb/s bi-directional Ethernet transfer rate per port (4 Gb/s per adapter), providing the
network performance needed to improve response times and alleviate bottlenecks.
IEEE 802.1Q virtual local area network (VLAN) protocol allows each physical port of this adapter to be
separated into multiple virtual NICs for added network segmentation and enhanced security and performance.
VLANs increase security by isolating traffic between users. Limiting the broadcast traffic to within the same
VLAN domain also improves performance.
This adapter ships with a suite of operating system-tailored configuration utilities that allow the user to enable
initial diagnostics and configure adapter teaming. This includes a patented teaming GUI for Microsoft Windows
operating systems. Additionally, support for scripted installations of teams in a Microsoft Windows environment
allow for unattended OS installations.
Compliant with IEEE 802.3az, featuring advanced power savings features throttles power usage with network
load activity.
This adapter supports Jumbo Frames (also known as extended frames), permitting up to a 9,000 byte (KB)
transmission unit (MTU) when running Ethernet I/O traffic. This is over five times the size of a standard 1500byte Ethernet frame. With Jumbo Frames, networks can achieve higher throughput performance and greater
CPU utilization. These attributes are particularly useful for database transfer and tape backup operations.
LED Indicators
Management Support
LED indicators show link integrity and network activity for easy troubleshooting.
This adapter ships with agents that can be managed from HPE Systems Insight Manager or other management
application that support SNMP.

Message Signaled Interrupt (Extended) provides performance benefits for multi-core servers by load balancing
interrupts between CPUs/cores.
This adapter support for NIC teaming helps IT administrators increase network fault tolerance and increased
network bandwidth, the team of adapters can work together as a single virtual adapter, providing support for
several different types of teaming enabling IT administrators to optimize availability, improve performance
and help reduce costs.
I/O Virtualization support for VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ helps meet the performance demands
of consolidated virtual workloads.
The x1 PCI Express interface on this adapter is compatible with x1, x4, x8, and x16 PCI slots. If installed in a
x4, x8 or x16 slot, the adapter will operate at the x1 speed.
Support for PXE enables automatic deployment of computing resources remotely from anywhere. It allows a
new or existing server to boot over the network and download software, including the operating system, from a
management/ deployment server at another location on the network.Additionally, PXE enables decentralized
software distribution and remote troubleshooting and repairs.
This adapter is a validated, tested, and qualified solution that is optimized for HPE ProLiant servers. Hewlett
Packard Enterprise validates a wide variety of major operating systems drivers with the full suite of web-based
enterprise management utilities including HPE Intelligent Provisioning and HPE Systems Insight Manager that
simplify network management.
This approach provides a more robust and reliable networking solution than offerings from other vendors and
provides users with a single point of contact for both their servers and their network adapters.

Warranty
For overall improved system response, this adapter supports standard TCP/IP offloading techniques including:
TCP/IP, UDP checksum offload (TCO) moves the TCP and IP checksum offloading from the CPU to the network
adapter. Large send offload (LSO) or TCP segmentation offload (TSO) allows the TCP segmentation to be
handled by the adapter rather than the CPU.
Synchronization of system clocks throughout a network, achieving clock accuracy in the sub-microsecond
range, making it suitable for measurement and control systems.
Maximum: The remaining warranty of the HPE product in which it is installed (to a maximum three-year, limited
warranty).
Minimum: One year limited warranty.
