This stand-up adapter adds two 10 Gb SFP+ Ethernet ports to a ProLiant or Apollo Gen9 server. Each port is rated at 20 Gb/s bi-directional, which adds up to 40 Gb/s of theoretical bandwidth per card, and the Mellanox ConnectX-3 Pro controller on board is backed by 128 MB of memory.
The card uses a PCIe 3.0 x8 edge connector and auto-senses x4 slots, so it still links up where only four lanes are wired. Power draw is 8.4 W typical and 9.7 W at most, and the operating range runs from 0 to 55 degrees C.
Features include VXLAN and NVGRE tunnel offload, RoCE traffic converged with LAN traffic on the same 10 GbE wire, SR-IOV for virtual machine density, receive-side scaling, PXE, UEFI and legacy boot, and jumbo frames up to 9,200 bytes.
Supported hosts are the ProLiant DL380, DL360, DL180, DL160, DL120, DL80 and DL60 Gen9, the ML350, ML150 and ML110 Gen9, and the Apollo 6000 and Apollo 2000 Gen9. Fibre optic transceivers and direct attach copper cables are bought separately, and the service spare number for this adapter is 790314-001.
The FlexibleLOM-format version of this adapter uses the same controller; this one is the PCIe stand-up card, so it occupies an expansion slot instead of the FlexibleLOM connector.
