Flexible, high performance

The NC360T features two ports on a single adapter, is based upon the high performance Intel 82571EB chipset, and offers a 4 lane (x4) PCI Express bus based on the PCIe v1.0a standard. Customers who have ProLiant servers with PCI Express slots will be able to save valuable I/O slots for other purposes because the NC360T promotes flexibility since it contains brackets for both full height and half height (low profile) PCIe slots. It readily complements (and eventually replaces) the NC7170 PCI-X Dual Port Server Adapter as ProLiant servers become increasingly PCI Express. Other key features are:
  • Gigabit data paths make it ideal for ProLiant servers requiring dual port bandwidth
  • Auto-negotiating 10/100/1000Mbps capability enables the NC360T to be used in Ethernet or Fast Ethernet legacy twisted pair wiring environments and preserves investment in switch infrastructure
  • Dual ports address server slot constraints, port density requirements and the need for network expansion

Compatibility, compliance, and validation for ProLiant servers

Like all HP NC-series NICs, the NC360T offers the highest levels of compatibility and standards compliance:
  • Tested, validated, and compatible with the ProLiant ML and DL server line
  • Fully compliant (6 of 6) with Reduction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
  • Supports:
    • SmartStart - intelligent integration tool that simplifies the process of installing and configuring ProLiant systems
    • HP Systems Insight Manager - comprehensive systems management tools designed to provide proactive and industry leading predicative fault and performance management
    • ProLiant Essentials Intelligent Networking Pack - optional software package allowing ProLiant servers to intelligently change the network path to achieve maximum reliability and performance and also reduce virus threats before they spread to the entire network
    • Heterogeneous (multi-vender) Teaming - driver support for the NC360T is both broad and deep and includes 32 and 64-bit extensions that contain most recent versions of Microsoft Windows 2003, Windows 2000, Red Hat Linux, SUSE Linux, Novell Netware, and Solaris. More information about HP's teaming can be found at these links:
  • Conforms to the following IEEE compliances: 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3x (for flow control), 802.3ab, 802.3ad (for link aggregation), 802.1p (for Quality of Service), 802.1Q (for VLAN tagging)
