HP NC522m Dual Port 10Gbe Multifunction BL-c-Adapter The HP NC522m Dual Port 10Gbe Multifunction BL-c-Adapter is a high-performance network adapter designed for HP ProLiant c-Class BladeSystem. It features dual ports and supports IEEE 10GBase-KR 10 Gigabit Ethernet, providing a total transfer rate of 20,000 Mbps per port (40 Gbps aggregate full duplex). This makes it an ideal choice for data centers that require fast and reliable network connectivity. Complete Flex-10 Solution The NC522m is fully supported on the HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet Module for BladeSystem c-Class, allowing for a complete Flex-10 solution. This enables Flex-10 on most ProLiant blade servers, providing flexibility and scalability for your network infrastructure. Support for 10Gb Connections In addition to its compatibility with the HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet Module, the NC522m also supports 10Gb connections when paired with the HP 6120XG Blade Switch. This allows for high-speed data transfer and improved network performance. NetXen 3031 Controller The NC522m is based on the NetXen 3031 controller, a reliable and high-performance controller that ensures smooth and efficient data transfer. This controller also supports advanced features such as VLAN tagging, QoS, 9K jumbo frames, teaming (bonding), Receive Side Scaling (RSS), and PXE. Evolve at Your Own Speed The NC522m allows for a gradual transition to 10Gb Ethernet, giving you the flexibility to upgrade your network infrastructure at your own pace. When paired with the HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet Modules, you can take advantage of the Flex Nics, which are OS-independent PCI Physical Function devices.
