HPE P10096‑B21 Broadcom BCM57416 2‑Port 10 GbE OCP3 Adapter
Overview
The HPE P10096‑B21 is a server host‑network adapter designed for IT infrastructure engineers upgrading to 10 Gb Ethernet connectivity in OCP3 form‑factor server platforms. It provides two Base‑T network ports capable of 10 Gbps each (also supporting lower speeds such as 1/2.5/5 Gbps), and interfaces via the OCP 3.0 mezzanine slot, allowing high‑density deployment in modern rack‑servers with minimal impact to existing PCIe footprints. The adapter is optimized for high‑throughput server access, storage front‑end connections or virtualization host uplinks. It fits into compatible HPE servers or other OCP3‑enabled platforms and integrates with HPE networking stacks and drivers. It is well suited for enterprise data centre racks, cloud nodes, and high‑performance application servers requiring low‑latency, multi‑gigabit connectivity. The device also supports industry‑standard management capabilities via the server platform and aligns with HPE’s move toward OCP compute architectures.
