HPE 728530-001 FlexFabric 10Gb 2-Port 571SFP+ Adapter
Overview
The HPE 728530-001 is a dual-port 10GbE SFP+ network adapter engineered for select HPE ProLiant Gen8 servers. This card addresses the high bandwidth and low latency demands of modern data centers, providing a reliable connectivity solution for virtualized environments and I/O-intensive enterprise applications. It is designed to optimize network traffic and reduce the total number of adapters and cables required in a server rack, streamlining the infrastructure. At its core, this adapter utilizes the Solarflare SFC9020 controller, enabling robust hardware acceleration and offloads for protocols like TCP/IP, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE). This intelligent offloading capability frees up server CPU cycles, allowing them to focus on application processing. The result is a significant improvement in server efficiency and overall network performance, crucial for environments with high-density server deployments. Designed as a low-profile, plug-in card, the HPE 728530-001 installs into a PCI Express 2.0 x8 slot. Its form factor makes it a versatile option for various rack-mount server chassis, particularly within the ProLiant DL360p Gen8 and DL380p Gen8 series. Management is integrated within the existing HPE server management ecosystem, allowing for centralized configuration and monitoring of network assets.
