HPE P14484-001

Broadcom BCM57414 Dual-Port SFP28 Network Adapter (10/25 GbE)

The HPE P14484-001 (Broadcom BCM57414) is a powerful dual-port SFP28 Network Adapter designed to deliver both 10 GbE and 25 GbE connectivity in a compact OCP 3.0 mezzanine card form factor. Engineered for HPE Gen10 Plus and Gen11 ProLiant servers, this adapter supports high-demand workloads including virtualization, storage, cloud, and high-performance computing. With cutting-edge offload features like RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE v1/v2), VXLAN, NVGRE, SR-IOV, RSS, and DPDK, it drastically improves data throughput while reducing server CPU load. Security-conscious deployments benefit from firmware root-of-trust, secure boot, and trusted firmware authentication—ensuring network integrity and resilience in enterprise environments.

Features

The HPE P14484-001 fits into modern data centers requiring scalable, high-speed network infrastructure. Built on the Broadcom BCM57414 controller, it provides two selectable 10 GbE or 25 GbE SFP28 ports, facilitating flexible bandwidth provisioning. The adapter interfaces via the OCP 3.0 mezzanine slot—commonly found in HPE Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers—allowing clean internal cabling and efficient airflow.Internally, the adapter accelerates network virtualization and traffic routing through RDMA, VXLAN, NVGRE, GENEVE, and SR-IOV, enabling seamless operation in server virtualization and storage-heavy environments. Advanced features like RSS, DPDK, and secure firmware controls ensure high performance, low latency, and network security integrity. Administrators can rely on firmware root-of-trust and secure-boot protocols to mitigate firmware tampering. Backward compatibility across IPv4/IPv6, BIOS and UEFI PXE supports, and legacy BIOS boot make it a versatile option for mixed environments.

Advanced Options

Built for enterprise environments, the Broadcom BCM57414 adapter delivers reliable high-speed networking with advanced offload technologies that reduce CPU overhead and improve overall server performance. The OCP 3.0 form factor ensures efficient airflow and optimized thermal design within server chassis. With its PCIe 3.0 interface and dual 25 GbE-capable ports, it provides enough bandwidth and scalability for future network expansions.
