Technician notes
WARNING:
IMPORTANT:
Before installing the unit, review and adhere to all device-specific warnings provided in the HPE StoreFabric CN1100R Dual Port Converged Network Adapter User Guide and in Safety and Compliance Information for Server, Storage, Power, Networking, and Rack Products on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/support/Safety-Compliance-EnterpriseProducts).
Warnings, cautions, and notes
• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
• Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
• Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment.
• Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against
it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from the server.
modifications might void any warranty.
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
This symbol indicates the presence of a hot surface or hot component. If this surface is contacted, the potential for injury exists. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from a hot component, allow the surface to cool before touching.

Overview
The StoreFabric CN1100R 2P CNA is a dual-port converged network adapter that supports Gen8 ML and DL ProLiant servers and uses the Broadcom 57810s Meru-D.
For more information about the StoreFabric CN1100R 2P CNA, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise

website (http://www.hpe.com/info/cna).
1. Go to the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/cna).
2. Select the adapter.
3. Select Technical Support/Manuals, and then select Drivers, Software & Firmware.
4. Download the drivers and firmware as needed.
Installation prerequisites
Before you begin, be sure the following items are available:
• An optical multi-mode cable with an LC-style duplex connector and approved SFP+ module or
copper cable
• A server with an empty x8 PCIe bus slot
WARNING: Disconnect the host from the power source before installing the CNA.
Recording reference numbers
The CNA ships with the IEEE address (Port 1 MAC address) clearly marked on the board.
The MAC address is a unique, 48-bit identifier for configuring the system. The Fibre Channel industry uses the WWN derived from the MAC address for Fibre Channel connectivity. The MAC addresses are permanent identifiers that cannot be changed.
The CNA has two ports, so it has two MAC addresses and two WWNs, one for each port. Use the serial number when communicating with Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Determine and record the serial number, MAC addresses, and WWNs before installation.

Introduction 6
Installing an adapter
Installing a CNA in a server
WARNING: Disconnect the host from the power source before installing the CNA.
1. Power down the server, and then remove the power cord.
2. Remove the server case.
3. Remove the blank panel from an empty x8 or larger PCIe bus slot.
Identify the PCI Express option slot in which the CNA is to be installed. If a low profile option slot is to be used, install the low profile bracket onto the CNA. See "Installing a low profile bracket for a CNA (on page 7)."
4. Insert and firmly seat the CNA in the PCI Express slot.
5. Secure the CNA mounting bracket to the case with the panel clip or screw.
6. Re-install the server case, and then plug in the power cord.
The CNA is installed in the server and ready for media attachment.
Installing a low profile bracket for a CNA
Change the bracket if the server requires a different mounting bracket. The CNA comes installed with a standard PCIe bracket and ships with an optional low profile bracket in the box. The low profile mounting bracket, approximately 7.9 cm (3.11 inches), is shorter than the standard bracket, approximately 12.06 cm (4.75 inches).
Installing an adapter 7
To install a low profile bracket:
1. To remove any SFP transceivers or cables from the CNA transceiver cage assembly, pull the bail
(handle) out and down to release the latch.
2. Gently pull the SFP transceiver out. Store the transceiver in an ESD-safe place.
3. Using a correctly sized slotted screwdriver, carefully remove the two board lock screws located at
the top and bottom of the connector.

4.
Remove the standard profile bracket, and then store it for future use.
5. Align the new mounting bracket tabs with the holes in the CNA.
IMPORTANT: Do not push the bracket past the grounding tabs on the transceiver housing. Be sure the LEDs are properly aligned with the holes in the bracket.
6. Install the screws that attach the CNA to the bracket.
Attaching media
Connecting the fiber optic cable
Connect the CNA with either removable SFP optical transceivers or copper interface cables.
1. Insert the transceiver into the cage. Be sure that the tab on the plug clicks into position.
2. Connect one end of the fiber optic cable to the LC connector on the CNA.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the converged network switch.
Installing an adapter 9
For more information, see "Cable specifications (on page 14)".
Connecting the copper cable
1. Insert the transceiver into the cage. Be sure that the tab on the plug clicks into position.
2. Connect one end of the copper cable to the CNA.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the converged network switch.
For more information, see "Cable specifications (on page 14)".
Powering up the CNA
1. Verify that the CNA is securely installed in the server and that the correct media is attached.
2. Plug in and power up the server.
3. Observe the link and activity LEDs to be sure the CNA connects to the switch.
