Adapters

HPE Converged Network Adapters (CNAs) are dual port adapters that provide Ethernet, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity over 10 GbE/25 GbE using both Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) standards. By consolidating Ethernet, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel onto a converged adapter, HPE CNAs reduce the number of separate adapters and cables required for your data center and also reduce operational, power, and cooling costs while preserving existing Ethernet and Fibre Channel infrastructure. HPE CNAs have also been thoroughly tested with HPE ProLiant servers and HPE Top of Rack (ToR) switches to help ensure a better HPE FCoE solution for your data center.

Are you looking for a simple way to migrate to 10G high performance data center with low cost and low power in your data center? The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port X550-AT2 Adapter deliver high performance and low latency for Ethernet traffic to and from the server with minimal CPU resources required. Processing of I/O packets on the adapter frees up CPU to do other more important tasks. For environments such as Telco/NFV, high-performance computing (HPC) and ecommerce that deal with large volumes of small packet traffic, these adapters accelerate small packet processing by bypassing processing in the host O/S kernel.

Are you looking for extremely high-bandwidth and very low latency communications for your HPE Apollo System and HPE ProLiant DL rack mount server families?

The HPE HDR InfiniBand and Ethernet adapters are designed for customers who deploy high performance computing (HPC) systems with their HPE ProLiant XL and HPE ProLiant DL Gen10 and Gen10 Plus servers in the data center. The HPE InfiniBand HDR/HDR100 and Ethernet adapters are available as stand up cards or in the OCP 3.0 form factor, equipped with 1 port or 2 ports. Combined with HDR InfiniBand switches, they deliver low latency and up to 200Gbps bandwidth, ideal for performance-driven server and storage clustering applications in HPC and enterprise data centers.

Are you looking for an dual-function FDR InfiniBand and/or 40/50 GbE adapter for your HPE ProLiant XL and DL server families? The HPE InfiniBand FDR/EN Adapters are designed for customers who need low latency and high-bandwidth for high-performance computing (HPC) systems with their HPE ProLiant XL and DL server families in the data center. Based on Mellanox® ConnectX-3 PRO, Connect-IB and ConnectX-5 technology for scalability and fabric flexibility, the dual ported card can function as a dual-port FDR InfiniBand card, a dual-port Ethernet card, or a mixed function card. Combined with HPE FDR InfiniBand Switches or Ethernet Switches, they deliver low latency and up to 50 Gb/s bandwidth. Ideal for performance-driven server and storage clustering applications in HPC and enterprise data centers.

Are you looking for next-generation Fibre Channel (FC) adapter for the Modern Data Center?

The HPE SN1610E 32Gb FC Host Bus Adapters (HBA) are designed for demanding mission-critical workloads and emerging applications. Applications continue to grow in size and scale. To support them, enterprises are increasingly turning to new server technologies that contain hundreds of processor cores, as well as high-performance storage solutions, including low-latency Non-volatile Memory Express (NVMe), and all-flash arrays (AFAs). NVMe can significantly increase the performance of storage area networks (SANs), making the selection of high-speed networking technology the critical element for achieving maximum system-wide performance.

Compared to the previous generation, the HPE SN1610E FC HBAs offers higher bandwidth, better latency, enhanced security, and operational efficiency for 32 Gigabit Fiber Channel (GFC). It provides seamless backward compatibility to 16 GFC and 8 GFC networks.
