Active Health System
Supports HPE Active Health System - monitors and records changes in the server hardware and
configuration enabling customers to have accurate information that will assist in diagnosing problems
and delivering rapid resolution when server failures occur.
Auto-negotiation
This adapter automatically senses the speed of the device to which it is attached. It also automatically

Configuration Utilities
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 environment allow for unattended OS installations.
DMA Coalescing
Supports DMA Coalescing, the incoming data packets and interrupts associated with these DMA calls
are intelligently batched to keep the system devices in lower power states.
HPE Sea of Sensors3D
Support for the HPE Sea of Sensors which is a collection of 32 sensors that automatically track thermal
Jumbo Frames
This adapter supports Jumbo Frames (also known as extended frames), permitting up to a 9,500 byte
standard 1500-byte Ethernet frame. With Jumbo Frames, networks can achieve higher throughput

Microsoft Windows operating systems. Additionally, support for scripted installations of teams in a
activity - heat - across the server. When temperatures get too high, sensors can initiate fans and make
other adjustments to reduce energy usage. A significant improvement lies in the ability to apply fan speed
increases only to the portion of the system that is rising in temperature, rather than all six fans in unison,
which reduces the amount of energy used for cooling.

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
multiple server adapters so that the active device can be backed up by a redundant adapter to improve
availability. The Hewlett Packard Enterprise teaming utility also allows users to specify that when a failed
adapter is fixed and replaced, the original adapter resumes its function as the primary network
connection.
