Description du marché

The HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 554FLR-SFP+ Adapter is a dual port adapter that provides Ethernet and iSCSI; or Ethernet and Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) connectivity over 10 GbE using both Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) standards. By consolidating Ethernet, iSCSI, and Fiber Channel onto a converged network adapter, the HPE 554FLR reduces the number of separate adapters and cables required for datacenters and also reduce operational, power and cooling costs while preserving existing Ethernet and Fiber Channel infrastructure. The HPE 554FLR has been thoroughly tested with HPE ProLiant servers and HPE Top of Rack (ToR) switches to ensure an optimal HPE FCoE solution for datacenters.

Caractéristiques du produit

• Dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet throughput (theoretical bandwidth)
  The 20,000 Mbps full duplex Ethernet transfer rate per port, providing the network performance needed to improve response times and alleviate bottlenecks. 10 Gb Ethernet bandwidth is ideal for high performance computing, database clusters.
• PCI express interface
  The HPE 554FLR is designed with an eight lane (x8) PCI Express bus based on the PCIe 2.0 standard. The adapter is backward compatible with four LANE (x4) PCI Express, automatically auto-sensing between x8 and x4 slots.
• Jumbo frames
  Jumbo frames permit a 9,000 byte transmission unit (MTU). The HPE 554FLR adapter supports 9KB jumbo frames as a way to achieve higher throughput and better CPU utilization. Jumbo frames are particularly useful for database transfers and tape backups.
• SR-IOV
  The HPE 554FLR supports industry standard SR-IOV (Single Root Input Output Virtualization), which boosts IO performance and simplifies configuration in virtual environments. SR-IOV reduces CPU overhead when sharing networking resources between numerous virtual machines, thereby boosting overall server performance.
• Interrupt coalescing
  Interrupt coalescing (interrupt moderation) groups multiple packets, thereby reducing the number of interrupts sent to the host. This process optimizes host efficiency, leaving the CPU available for other duties.
• 802.1p QoS tagging
  IEEE quality of service (QoS) 802.1p tagging allows the adapter to mark or tag frames with a priority level across a QoS-aware network for improved traffic flow.
• LED indicators
  Bracket LED indicators show link integrity and network activity for easy troubleshooting.
