HPE872161-001

Dual-Port 1 GbE FlexibleLOM 368FLR-T Media Module Adapter

The HPE 872161-001 (368FLR-T) is a dual-port 1 Gbps Ethernet FlexibleLOM module designed for HPEGen10 ProLiant XL/Apolloservers. Featuring two RJ-45 ports supporting 1000Base-T, it provides reliable copper networking with minimal power use. Ideal for management, backup, or redundant networking lanes, this compact mezzanine-style module frees up PCIe slots and simplifies server cabling. Purpose-built for high-density deployments such as HPC storage nodes or cloud appliances, it delivers consistent throughput in mission-critical environments.

Features

This FlexibleLOM adapter plugs directly into the Gen3 media-module slot, using 1000Base-T copper connectivity to deliver full-duplex 1 Gbps per port. It's optimized for low-power operation and designed to occupy minimal rack unit space while enabling redundant uplink configuration. The module supports hot-swap replacement and works seamlessly across compatible HPEplatforms including Apollo R2200, R2600, and XL170R/XL190R Gen10 servers. Ideal for network management, segregated traffic, or resilient architecture, it integrates cleanly into existing server infrastructure.

Advanced Options

Designed for stable and reliable connectivity across server clusters and storage nodes, this module delivers consistent 1 Gbps speeds with low thermal output. Copper links offer expanded reach up to 100 m over standard Cat 5e/6 cabling and resist electromagnetic interference better than mezzanine fiber modules.

Product Key Features

• Two 1 GbE RJ-45 ports via copper (1000Base-T)
  

• FlexibleLOM 368FLR-T form factor for Gen10 servers
  

• Full-duplex line-rate performance on both ports
  

• Compact mezzanine module×preserves PCI slots
  

• Plug-and-play integration with minimal driver overhead
  

• Ideal for redundant or segregated NIC deployments
