HPE 647581-B21 530FLR-SFP+ 10GbE Network Adapter
Overview
The HPE 647581-B21 is a dual-port 10GbE network adapter designed for select HPE ProLiant Gen8 rack servers. This FlexibleLOM (FLR) adapter addresses the demand for high-bandwidth connectivity in enterprise data centers, solving network bottlenecks for I/O-intensive applications, server virtualization, and consolidated workloads. It provides a reliable, high-throughput networking solution without consuming a standard PCIe slot. Based on a single-chip QLogic solution, the adapter optimizes server efficiency by offloading network protocol processing. It supports stateless TCP/IP offloads, TCP Offload Engine (TOE), and tunnel offloads for VXLAN and NVGRE. These features free up CPU cycles for core application processing, which is critical in dense virtualized environments. The result is improved server performance, reduced latency, and lower power consumption. Engineered for seamless integration, the 530FLR-SFP+ fits into the dedicated FlexibleLOM slot on supported ProLiant servers. This form factor simplifies deployment and management within the HPE ecosystem. Management is streamlined through HPE’s suite of utilities, allowing for straightforward configuration of features like NIC teaming for enhanced fault tolerance and bandwidth aggregation directly within the server’s management environment.
