Are you looking to reduce network congestion & improve cable management at the servers in your HP Pro Liant Gen 8 environment? The HP Ethernet 10 Gb 2-port 530T Adapter is a dual-port 10GBASE-T adapter, featuring the BCM57810S 10 Gb Ethernet solution from Broadcom in a PCIe 2.0 compliant form factor designed for HP Pro Liant Gen 8 rack & tower servers. The HP 530T Adapter delivers full line-rate performance across all ports with low power consumption, utilizing CAT 6A UTP cabling with distances up to 100 meters. Providing high performance Ethernet connectivity, it is ideal for virtual server & cloud computing environments. It supports enterprise class features (VLAN tagging, adaptive interrupt coalescing, MSI-X, NIC teaming (bonding), Receive Side Scaling (RSS), jumbo frames, PXE boot) & virtualization features (VMware Net Queue & Microsoft VMQ). The adapter's support for HP Sea of Sensors 3D Technology enhances server performance by reducing energy consumption & expense. Dual-port 10GBASE-T Ethernet Low Profile Adapter Designed for Increased Network Performance. The total aggregate, full-duplex throughput of 40 Gbps provides the network performance needed to improve response times & alleviate bottlenecks that impact performance of the most demanding workloads. Compatible with 1 Gb E networks utilizing CAT 6A UTP cabling to support distances up to 100 meters. Comprehensive stateless offloads that optimize host efficiency & virtual machine density by leaving host CPU availability for other duties. Virtualization support for VMware Net Queue & Microsoft VMQ helps meet the performance demands of consolidated virtual workloads. Support for MSI/MSI-X provides performance benefits for multi-core servers by load balancing interrupts between CPUs/cores. Stateful hardware offload for TCP/IP: TCP Offload Engine (TOE). Optimizes CPU utilization. Backward compatible with existing 1 Gb E networks utilizing low-cost CAT 6A UTP cabling to support distances up to 100 meters.
