HPE 530FLR Network Gigabit Ethernet Adapter10Gb 2-Port

Detailed Specifications

The HPE 530FLR is a dual-port 10GbE network adapter designed in the FlexibleLOM form factor for select HPE ProLiant servers. It addresses the need for high bandwidth and reduced network bottlenecks in demanding data center environments, particularly those with high-performance computing, database clusters, and virtualized workloads. This adapter provides a single-chip solution that consolidates network connectivity, lowering power consumption while delivering high throughput. Engineered for modern server infrastructures, this adapter enhances I/O performance by offloading network tasks from the CPU. It supports TCP/IP stateless offloads, such as Large Send Offload (LSO), and tunnel offloads for VXLAN and NVGRE, which are critical for maintaining performance in virtualized overlay networks. These features help minimize latency, reduce CPU utilization, and improve overall server efficiency. The FlexibleLOM form factor allows for easy, tool-free integration and upgrades in compatible ProLiant Gen8 rack servers. It integrates seamlessly with HPE's management ecosystem, including HPE Systems Insight Manager (SIM), and supports SNMP for comprehensive network monitoring and administration. The adapter is optimized for virtual environments, supporting features like Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) and Network Partitioning (NPAR) to provide granular bandwidth control and near bare-metal performance for virtual machines.
