HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 533FLR-T Adapter

Recommended SKU - This adapter is a recommended option that has been selected by HPE experts to provide the right technology for a range of workloads and market segments offering the best combination of performance, value and availability. Are you looking to reduce network congestion and improve cable management at the servers ? The HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 533FLR-T Adapter is a dual-port 10GBASE-T adapter, featuring the 57810S 10 Gb Ethernet solution from QLogic in a PCIe 2.0 compliant form factor designed for HPE ProLiant servers. The HPE 533FLR-T Adapter delivers full line-rate Ethernet NIC performance across all ports with low power consumption, utilizing CAT 6A UTP cabling with distances up to 100 meters. Providing high performance Ethernet, iSCSI and FCoE connectivity, it is ideal for virtual server and cloud computing environments. It supports enterprise class features such as VLAN tagging, adaptive interrupt coalescing, MSI-X, NIC teaming (bonding), Tunneling offloads (NVGRE, VxLAN), Receive Side Scaling (RSS), jumbo frames, PXE boot) and virtualization features including SR-IOV, Network Partitioning (NPAR), VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ. For more effective utilization of the 10GbE bandwidth, the HPE 533FLR-T CNA offers Switch Independent Network Partitioning (NPAR) which enables segmentation of each 10GbE port into four virtual ports, with flexible allocation of bandwidth to each port. Allowing IT organizations to improve resource utilization while lowering infrastructure and operational costs. The adapter's support for HPE Sea of Sensors 3D Technology enhances server performance by reducing energy consumption and expense.

This adapter delivers 20 Gb/s bi-directional Ethernet transfer rate per port (40 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.

Normally the TCP Checksum is computed by the protocol stack. Segmentation Offload is technique for increasing outbound throughput of high-bandwidth network connections by reducing CPU overhead. The technique is also called TCP segmentation offload (TSO) when applied to TCP, or generic segmentation offload (GSO).

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.

This adapter supports DPDK with benefit for packet processing acceleration and use in NFV deployments.

Support for the HPE Sea of Sensors which is a collection of 32 sensors that automatically track thermal activity heat - across the server. When temperatures get too high, sensors can initiate fans and make other adjustments
