HPE 743497-001

Insight Lights-Out Dedicated NIC 1 Gbps RJ‑45 Network Adapter (Refurbished)

The HPE 743497‑001 is a dedicated 1‑port 1 Gbps RJ‑45 Network Adapter designed specifically for integrated Lights-Out (iLO) management within HPE ProLiant servers. Installed into a dedicated PCA slot, this module provides out-of-band remote management connectivity via a standard Gigabit Ethernet interface. Refurbished to OEM specifications and backed by a 90-day warranty, it's ideal for IT administrators seeking cost-effective, reliable access for server monitoring, updates, and remote diagnostics without impacting the server’s main data interfaces.

Features

This PCA adapter connects directly to the iLO management engine through an RJ‑45 Ethernet port supporting IEEE 1000Base‑T over Cat5e/Cat6 cabling at distances up to 100 meters. As a dedicated module, it operates independently of the server’s primary networking interfaces and avoids interference with production traffic. It supports standard management features such as PXE boot, Wake-on‑LAN, VLAN tagging, and checksum offload. The compact plug-in design enables hot-insertion within supported Gen9/Gen10 ProLiant server slots for easy replacement or maintenance without downtime

Advanced Options

Designed for continuous out-of-band access, the 743497‑001 adapter provides consistent Gigabit-class connectivity for remote server control and diagnostics. The embedded offload features reduce host overhead during management operations such as remote updates and power control.
