HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-porttinen 562FLR-SFP+ sisäinen

The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 562FLR-SFP+ adapter is a FlexibleLOM network card designed for HPE ProLiant Gen9 rack and density-optimized servers. It provides two 10Gb SFP+ ports, PCIe 3.0 x8 connectivity and is optimized for virtualized environments that require SDN features, low latency and high bandwidth.

Advantages

The adapter delivers intelligent offloads per virtual machine to reduce I/O bottlenecks and support near-native VM performance. It supports SR-IOV for sharing the device among multiple VMs without runtime performance loss, and is DPDK-optimized for efficient packet processing. The card also provides stateless offloads for overlay networks (including VXLAN and NVGRE) and strong small-packet performance for network appliances and NFV use cases.

Key specifications

• Form factor: FlexibleLOM (FLR)
• Ports: 2 × 10Gb SFP+
• Host interface: PCIe 3.0 x8
• Optimizations: DPDK support
• Virtualization features: SR-IOV, stateless offloads for VXLAN and NVGRE
• Target servers: HPE ProLiant Gen9 Rack/Tower and Density Optimized
• Use cases: SDN, NFV, virtualized data centers

How to use

Install the 562FLR-SFP+ adapter into the FlexibleLOM slot of a compatible HPE ProLiant Gen9 server and connect SFP+ transceivers or DAC cables to the SFP+ ports. Ensure the server firmware and network driver versions meet HPE compatibility requirements. Configure virtualization and SR-IOV settings in the host hypervisor as needed, and enable DPDK or stateless offloads in the network stack to achieve optimized packet processing and overlay network performance.

Recommendations

Use certified SFP+ modules or direct-attach cables and keep firmware/drivers up to date. When deploying in virtualized or NFV environments, validate SR-IOV and DPDK support in your hypervisor and test overlay network offloads (VXLAN/NVGRE) to ensure expected latency and throughput.
