The HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 536FLB adapter features the next generation of 10 Gb Ethernet offering in a single chip solution on a FlexibleLOM form factor, further reducing power requirements for 2 ports of 10 Gb Ethernet. It is designed for use with HPE BladeSystem c-Class Gen9 servers. It provides full duplex high performance Ethernet connectivity with support for HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric blade interconnect technology, allowing each 10GbE port to be divided into four physical NICs and optimize bandwidth management for virtualized servers. The HPE 536FLB 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. The HPE 536FLB supports enterprise class features such as VLAN tagging, adaptive interrupt coalescing, MSI-X, NIC teaming (bonding) Tunnel offload (NVGRE,VXLAN) Receive Side Scaling (RSS), jumbo frames and PXE boot. It also supports virtualization features such as SR-IOV, VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ.
