The HPE FlexFabric 20Gb 2-port 630FLB adapter features the first generation of 20Gb Ethernet offering in a single chip solution on a FlexibleLOM form factor, further reducing power requirements for 2 ports of 20Gb Ethernet. It is designed for use with HPE BladeSystem c-Class servers.
It provides full duplex high performance Ethernet connectivity with support for HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric blade interconnect and Network Partitioning (NPAR) technology, allowing each 20GbE port to be divided into four physical NICs and optimize bandwidth management for virtualized servers. The HPE 630FLB FlexFabric network adapter, in conjunction with HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric technology, helps to extend the benefits of virtualization beyond the server and into the rest of the infrastructure.

NOTE:This adapter on each server blade connects to a 20 Gb interconnect in bays 1-2 (HPE BladeSystem c7000 Enclosure) or bay 1 (HPE BladeSystem c3000 Enclosure).
NOTE:This adapter requires a minimum of 2 GB of server memory.
NOTE: This adapter supports linking at 10 Gb/s when not connected to a Flex-20 device.

At a Glance Features

• Full hardware offload of iSCSI and FCoE storage protocol processing for highest performance converged Ethernet data and storage networks.
• Dual-port 20GbE Flex-20 FlexibleLOM network adapter that provides the flexibility to choose the type of LOM to meet growing infrastructure needs
• Hardware acceleration and offloads for stateless TCP/IP, TCP Offload Engine (TOE)
• Industry-leading throughput and latency performance
• Up to 40Gb/s bi-directional near line rate throughput
• User configurable bandwidth settings when combined with the 20 Gb Flex-20 Virtual Connect module or using NPAR. From 100 Mb/s to 20 Gb/s on up to four "Physical Function" NICs per port, in increments of 100 Mb/s for NIC. The combined bandwidth of NICs cannot exceed port bandwidth i.e. 10 Gb.
• Data Rate Two ports, each at 40 Gb/s bi-directional; 80 Gb/s aggregate bi-directional theoretical bandwidth.
• Onboard Memory PCI Express 3.0 (Gen 3) x8

Throughput- Theoretical BandwidthThis adapter delivers 40 Gb/s bi-directional Ethernet transfer rate per port (80 Gb/s per adapter), providing the network performance needed to improve response times and alleviate bottlenecks.

iSCSI/FCoEThis adapter supports accelerated iSCSI or iSCSI boot and FCoE.

TCP/UDP/IP For overall improved system response, this adapter supports standard TCP/IP offloading techniques including: TCP/IP, UDP checksum offload (TCO) moves the TCP and IP checksum offloading from the CPU to the network adapter. Large send offload (LSO) or TCP segmentation offload (TSO) allows the TCP segmentation to be handled by the adapter rather than the CPU.

This adapter also supports 1 Gb or 10 Gb connections with the following modules:

• HPE 10GbE Ethernet Pass-Thru Module for c-Class BladeSystem
• HPE 1Gb Ethernet Pass-Thru Module for c-Class BladeSystem
• HPE Cisco B22HP Fabric Extender with 16 FET for BladeSystem c-Class

The HPE 630FLB supports enterprise class features such as VLAN tagging, adaptive interrupt coalescing, MSI-X, NIC teaming (bonding), Tunneling Offloads (NVGRE, VxLAN), Receive Side Scaling (RSS), jumbo frames and PXE boot. It also supports virtualization features such as SR-IOV, Network Partitioning (NPAR), , VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ.
