G3 2-Port 40GbE QSFP Network Adapter

The HPE P06841-001 G3 2-Port 40GbE QSFP Network Adapter is a robust, high-throughput PCIe network interface card designed to meet the demands of modern data centers and enterprise workloads. With two QSFP+ ports delivering up to 40 Gbps of Ethernet connectivity each, it enables rapid, low-latency interconnects between servers, storage arrays, and network fabrics. Tailored for IT professionals and systems architects, this adapter ensures seamless integration into HPE ProLiant servers and blade systems, offering scalability and bandwidth expansion without requiring infrastructure overhaul. Whether deployed for virtualization clusters, high-performance computing, or bandwidth-intensive storage applications, the P06841-001 enables efficient use of existing QSFP infrastructure and accelerates data throughput with optimized performance.

Features

In today’s high-performance computing and large-scale virtualization environments, network infrastructure needs demand both speed and adaptability. The HPE P06841-001 addresses these needs head-on by pairing dual QSFP+ ports—each supporting 40 GbE—with a PCIe interface for wide-bandwidth, low-latency data paths. Designed for PCI Express x16 slots (also compatible in x8 slots), it supports the 40GBase-X standard over optical media, making it ideal for long-reach and high-traffic deployments . As a flexible LOM or add-in card, it plugs directly into HPE server platforms, enabling hot-swappable-like deployment flexibility. This adapter is commonly used in clustered compute, SAN connectivity, and backbone interlinks, where performance and latency are critical. Engineered for durability and enterprise readiness, it brings immediate bandwidth upgrades with minimal disruption—including support for SNMP, Telnet, and web-based management protocols 

Advanced Options

Built for enterprise and data center environments, the HPE P06841-001 G3 adapter delivers stable, high-density 40 GbE links that are essential for demanding workloads. With dual QSFP+ ports, the adapter provides flexible connectivity options—supporting both single-lane and breakout applications—to maximize network lane utilization. The PCI Express interface ensures reliable throughput, sustaining consistent performance in rack-dense and virtualized server clusters. Management protocol support, including SNMP and Telnet, simplifies integration into existing monitoring and orchestration systems, promoting rapid deployment and operational transparency
