HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 570SFP+ Adapter

Solarflare™ SFC9020, and delivers unmatched message rates with low latency and jitter
CPU utilization and power consumption, enabling the industry's best performance and scalability for financial services and other
enterprise data centers.

The HPE 570SFP+ comes with both low profile and standard brackets and has two SFP+ cages that enable connections with DACs
as well as SR fiber optic modules. It supports high performance networking features such as VLAN tagging, low latency interrupts,

The HPE 570SFP+ Adapter is designed with an eight lane (x8) PCI Express bus based on the PCIe v2.0

The HPE 570SFP+ Adapter supports jumbo frames (also known as extended frames), permitting up to a 9K

For overall improved system response, the HPE 570 SFP+ adapter supports standard TCP/IP offloading

Interrupt coalescing (interrupt moderation) groups multiple packets, thereby reducing the number of interrupts

techniques including:

• TCP/IP 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.

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.
