Detailed Specifications
HPE P46802-001 ACC100 vRAN Dedicated Accelerator Card
Overview
The HPE P46802-001 is a dedicated hardware accelerator card designed to offload intensive network and radio-access-network (vRAN) workloads from the primary server CPU. It targets edge, telco-cloud and high-density compute environments where functions such as LDPC FEC, Turbo encoding/decoding and packet-processing pipelines must run with low latency and high efficiency. The card installs in compatible HPE server platforms and integrates into orchestration frameworks to support scalable telco-grade performance, streamlining deployment of virtualized RAN, NFV and accelerated networking services. By enabling workload-specific hardware acceleration, the P46802-001 helps preserve general-purpose compute cycles, improves throughput per watt and supports deployment of modern wireless or network-function workloads without redesigning the server infrastructure.
Key Features
Dedicated accelerator card optimized for vRAN and NFV offloads
Designed for HPE ProLiant servers with compatible accelerator slots
Supports signal-processing and packet-acceleration workloads
