Hewlett-Packard Enterprise FlexFabric 20GB 2-port 650FLB Adapter

What if you could accelerate IT services, increase data center efficiency and double your bandwidth without doubling your costs and complexity?

The HP FlexFabric 20Gb 2-port 650FLB Adapter is installed in the FlexibleLOM socket prior to installing additional Mezzanine adapters. The adapter provides Tunnel Offload for efficient overlay networking to increase VM migration flexibility and network scale with minimal impact to server performance. Traditional layer 2 networks limit mobility and scale of virtualized and multi-tenant workloads.

When connected to HP 6125XLG Ethernet Blade Switch, it also supports RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) which increases host efficiency and lowers latency.

When connected to HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric-20/40 F8 Modules, the FlexFabric 20Gb 2-port 650FLB Adapter provides 20 GbE performance and it can also provide 10 GbE performance when connected to HP 6125XLG Ethernet Blade Switch.

Lower Costs and Deliver Faster Services by Converging FCoE or RoCE with LAN Traffic on a Single Wire

• The HP FlexFabric 20Gb 2-port 650FLB Adapter is specifically designed for HP ProLiant Server Blade. It is a FlexibleLOM card which cost-effectively doubles server I/O bandwidth and avoids bottlenecks both today and in the future.


Improve Network Virtualization Performance and Scale with Tunnel Offload

• The HP FlexFabric 20Gb 2-port 650FLB Adapter uses Tunnel Offload and a 2x bandwidth improvement to take full advantage of overlay networking.


Improve Operational Agility with Faster VM Migration and Storage Data Access

• The HP FlexFabric 20Gb 2-port 650FLB Adapter provides faster Microsoft Hyper-V Live Migration (using SMB with RoCE instead of TCP/IP).
