HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-Port 535FLR-T adaptér

Delivering full 10 Gigabit Ethernet over standard copper cabling, the HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-Port 535FLR-T Adapter brings high-speed networking to your ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers. With dual RJ-45 ports and a PCIe 3.0 x8 FlexibleLOM interface, this adapter is engineered for bandwidth-intensive virtualization, iSCSI storage, and data center workloads.

Overview

The HPE 535FLR-T is a dual-port 10GBASE-T adapter built on the Broadcom BCM57810S controller. It plugs directly into the FlexibleLOM slot of compatible HPE servers, preserving PCIe expansion slots for other uses. The adapter supports a wide range of advanced features including SR-IOV, TCP/IP offload engine (TOE), iSCSI HBA, FCoE, and Data Center Bridging (DCB), making it a versatile choice for converged infrastructure.

What stands out

• Dual 10GbE ports over copper RJ-45 for cost-effective high-speed connectivity
• FlexibleLOM form factor frees up standard PCIe slots
• Broadcom BCM57810S controller with hardware offloads for iSCSI, FCoE, and TOE
• SR-IOV support for efficient virtualization and near-native VM performance
• Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) reduces power consumption during low link utilization
• Designed for HPE ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers, including DL360 Gen9, DL380 Gen9, and BL460c Gen9
