HP NC552SFP 10Gb 2-port
Ethernet Server Adapter

The NC552SFP is an eight lane (x8) PCI Express (PCIe) 10 Gigabit network solution offering optimal throughput. This PCI Express Gen 2 adapter ships with two SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable) cages suitable for connecting to Direct Attach Cable (DAC) or an SR fiber module supporting fiber optic cabling.

The NC552SFP ships with advanced server features that suits ProLiant customers expectations, such as support for TCP checksum and segmentation, Large Send and Large Receive offload capability, VLAN tagging, 9K jumbo frames, IPv4 and IPv6, teaming for failover and load balancing, and TCP/IP Offload for Windows. The NC552SFP is easy to install and configure, and can be used in either standard or low profile slots.

• Latest 10 GbE networking ASIC from Emulex , the BladeEngines3 (BE3) network controller
• SRIOV (Single Root Input Output Virtualization) support in OS environments supporting SRIOV (Hardware Capable)
• Reduced power requirement compared with the previous generation product (HP NC550SFP)

Delivers High Throughput Critical for Virtualized Environments

• NC552SFP protocol speed of 10Gbps meets the needs of the most demanding ProLiant Server workloads
• NC552SFP enables a theoretical maximum of 40Gbps throughput using dual ports, bi-direction, full-duplex mode
• NC552SFP is built around the latest Emulex BladesEngine3 (BE3) 10 Gigabit controller. Workloads created by virtualization require the increased I/O delivered by the 10GbE NC552SFP
• NC552SFP uses less power compared to its predecessor cards and its hardware is SR-IOV capable
• Two Ports increase flexibility and save valuable I/O slots for other cards. Ports can be configured for failover, load balancing or connecting to a separate network. Dual ports help in reduce cabling
