HPE P21583-001 Intel FPGA PAC N3000 100GbE Accelerator Card
Overview
The HPE P21583-001 is a high-performance network accelerator card engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern data centers, particularly those grappling with intensive network functions, 5G core networks, and virtualized edge environments. This programmable acceleration card, powered by an Intel Arria 10 GX FPGA, offloads compute-heavy tasks from the CPU, enabling real-time packet processing and significantly reducing latency for data-intensive workloads. It provides the architectural flexibility necessary to adapt to evolving network standards and application demands without requiring frequent hardware overhauls. Designed for seamless integration into HPE ProLiant and Apollo server platforms, this accelerator card enhances data processing speeds and optimizes overall system efficiency. Its robust design supports high-bandwidth applications, from cloud computing and virtualization to AI/machine learning inference and high-frequency trading. The use of a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) allows for customized data paths and application-specific logic, offering unparalleled programmability and scalability for a wide array of workloads. Installation is streamlined due to its standard PCIe card form factor, ensuring compatibility and ease of deployment within existing server infrastructures. The passive cooling design leverages server airflow, maintaining stable operation under continuous heavy loads. Management is facilitated through Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) support, and it incorporates robust security features like Secure Device Manager and root-of-trust support, making it a reliable and secure component for critical IT environments.
