HPE QL41232HQCU-HC Marvell 41000 Series 25GbE OCP3 Adapter
Overview
The HPE QL41232HQCU-HC is a high-performance 2-port 10/25 Gigabit Ethernet network adapter, specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern data centers and cloud environments. This OCP 3.0 form factor adapter integrates seamlessly into compatible HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus servers, providing robust and scalable network connectivity. It addresses challenges related to increased network bandwidth, enhanced security, and reliable data delivery in a cost-effective manner for various latency-sensitive applications. Engineered with advanced capabilities, this adapter leverages the Marvell FastLinQ 41000 Series controller to deliver exceptional throughput and efficiency. It supports critical I/O offloads, including Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) and various tunneling protocols, which significantly reduce CPU utilization. This offloading capability frees up server processor cycles, allowing for greater application performance and virtual machine density within virtualized infrastructures. The inclusion of SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization) further enhances virtualization efficiency by enabling direct assignment of network resources to virtual machines. Designed for optimal physical and logical placement within a server's OCP 3.0 slot, the QL41232HQCU-HC adapter is ideal for high-speed server-to-server communication, network virtualization, and connecting to 10GbE or 25GbE network fabrics. Its SFP28 ports ensure flexible connectivity options with optical fiber media, supporting both 10GBASE-X and 25GBASE-X network technologies. This component is a vital asset for IT infrastructure managers seeking to optimize network performance and streamline operations for high-density server deployments.
