HPE P10114-B21 10/25GbE 2-Port SFP28 Network Adapter
Overview
The HPE P10114-B21 Broadcom BCM57414 Network Adapter is a high-performance, dual-port 10/25 Gigabit Ethernet solution designed to meet the demanding network connectivity requirements of modern data centers and virtualized environments. This adapter optimizes server performance by providing robust and efficient data transfer capabilities, essential for high-throughput, low-latency applications, and hybrid cloud services. Its OCP 3.0 form factor ensures seamless integration into compatible HPE ProLiant Gen10 and Gen10 Plus servers, enhancing system scalability and efficiency. Powered by the Broadcom BCM57414 controller, this adapter significantly reduces CPU overhead through advanced I/O offloading technologies such as Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) over Converged Ethernet (RoCE v1/v2), TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE), VXLAN, and NVGRE tunneling. These hardware offloads accelerate network processing, enabling faster application response times and higher virtual machine density, critical for virtualized and cloud computing workloads. It supports both 10 Gigabit and 25 Gigabit Ethernet speeds, offering flexibility for varied network infrastructures. As an OCP 3.0 plug-in card, the HPE P10114-B21 integrates directly into compatible server slots, facilitating streamlined deployment and reducing cable clutter. It provides enhanced virtualization support through Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV), enabling multiple virtual machines to share a single adapter’s resources with minimal performance impact. The adapter features secure boot and firmware root of trust mechanisms, safeguarding server infrastructure and data integrity by ensuring the authenticity of firmware updates.
