HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 556FLR-T Adapter: технические характеристики и документация

HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 556FLR-T Adapter

The HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 556FLR-T adapter is a dual port 10GBASE-T adapter for ProLiant Gen9 rack and Density Optimized servers in a FlexibleLOM form factor that provides full-featured, high performance, converged 10 Gb Ethernet that accelerates IT services and increases data center efficiency across a broad range of I/O intensive enterprise, cloud and Telco workloads. The HPE 556FLR-T Adapter, with two RJ-45 connectors, delivers full line-rate performance across all ports with low power consumption, utilizing CAT 6A UTP (or better) cabling with distances up to 100 meters and is backward compatible to existing 1000BASE-T infrastructure.

It offers overlay network tunneling and storage capabilities that increase host efficiency and virtualization performance.

The HPE FlexFabric 556FLR-T can provide up to 40 Gb/s of converged bi-directional Ethernet bandwidth, helping to alleviate network bottlenecks. .

Throughput-Theoretical Bandwidth

This adapter delivers 20 Gb/s bi-directional Ethernet transfer rate per port (40 Gb/s per adapter), providing the network performance needed to improve response times and alleviate bottlenecks.

802.1p QoS Tagging

IEEE quality of service (QoS) 802.1p tagging allows the adapter to mark or tag frames with a priority level across a QoS-aware network for improved traffic flow.

802.1Q VLANs

IEEE 802.1Q virtual local area network (VLAN) protocol allows each physical port of this adapter to be separated into multiple virtual NICs for added network segmentation and enhanced security and performance. VLANs increase security by isolating traffic between users. Limiting the broadcast traffic to within the same VLAN domain also improves performance.

Configuration Utilities

This adapter ships with a suite of operating system-tailored configuration utilities that allow the user to enable initial diagnostics and configure adapter teaming. This includes a patented teaming GUI for Microsoft Windows operating systems. Additionally, support for scripted installations of teams in a Microsoft Windows environment allow for unattended OS installations.

Interrupt Coalescing

Interrupt coalescing (interrupt moderation) groups multiple packets, thereby reducing the number of interrupts sent to the host. This process optimizes host efficiency, leaving the CPU available for other duties.

iSCSI/FCoE

This adapter supports accelerated iSCSI or iSCSI boot and FCoE.

Jumbo Frames

This adapter supports Jumbo Frames (also known as extended frames), permitting up to a 9,200 byte (KB) transmission unit (MTU) when running Ethernet I/O traffic. This is over five times the size of a standard 1500-byte Ethernet frame. With Jumbo Frames, networks can achieve higher throughput performance and greater CPU utilization. These attributes are particularly useful for database transfer and tape backup operations.

LED Indicators

LED indicators show link integrity and network activity for easy troubleshooting.

Management Support

This adapter ships with agents that can be managed from HPE Systems Insight Manager or other management application that support SNMP.

Message Signaled Interrupt (Extended) (MSI-X)

Message Signaled Interrupt (Extended) provides performance benefits for multi-core servers by load balancing interrupts between CPUs/cores.

PCI Express Interface

This adapter is designed with an eight lane (x8) PCI Express bus based on the PCIe 3.0 standard. The adapter is backward compatible with four lane (x4) PCI Express, automatically auto-sensing between x8 and x4 slots.

Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE)

Support for PXE enables automatic deployment of computing resources remotely from anywhere. It allows a new or existing server to boot over the network and download software, including the operating system, from a management/ deployment server at another location on the network.Additionally, PXE enables decentralized software distribution and remote troubleshooting and repairs.

Server Integration

This adapter is a validated, tested, and qualified solution that is optimized for HPE ProLiant servers. Hewlett Packard Enterprise validates a wide variety of major operating systems drivers with the full suite of web-based enterprise management utilities including HPE Intelligent Provisioning and HPE Systems Insight Manager that simplify network management.

This approach provides a more robust and reliable networking solution than offerings from other vendors and provides users with a single point of contact for both their servers and their network adapters.

TCP/UDP/IP

For overall improved system response, this adapter supports standard TCP/IP offloading techniques including:
TCP/IP, UDP checksum offload (TCO) moves the TCP and IP checksum offloading from the CPU to the network adapter. Large send offload (LSO) or TCP segmentation offload (TSO) allows the TCP segmentation to be handled by the adapter rather than the CPU.

Tunnel Offload

Minimize the impact of overlay networking on host performance with tunnel offload support for VXLAN and NVGRE. By offloading packet processing to adapters, customers can use overlay networking to increase VM migration flexibility and virtualized overlay networks with minimal impact to performance. HPE Tunnel Offloading increases I/O throughput, reduces CPU utilization, and lowers power consumption. Tunnel Offload supports VMware's VXLAN and Microsoft's NVGRE solutions.

Wake-on-LAN

This adapter provides Wake-on-LAN (WoL) support through the PCI Express bus. A system that supports Wake-on-LAN can remain available to the systems administrator during its normal downtime. Once the machine is awakened, the systems administrator can remotely control, audit, debug, or manage the machine.

Warranty

Maximum: The remaining warranty of the HPE product in which it is installed (to a maximum three-year, limited warranty).
Minimum: One year limited warranty.
