Frequently Asked Questions
Which HPE ProLiant server generations are compatible with the 727060-B21 adapter? +
The HPE FlexFabric 556FLR-SFP+ adapter is a FlexibleLOM (FLR) form factor specifically engineered for HPE ProLiant Gen10 servers. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into the dedicated FlexibleLOM slot found on supported DL and Apollo series platforms, providing reliable 10Gb connectivity without occupying a standard PCIe expansion slot.
What are the primary performance advantages of using the HPE 556FLR-SFP+ over standard 1Gb NICs? +
This adapter provides high-performance 10Gb Ethernet connectivity, drastically increasing throughput for data-intensive workloads like virtualization and large-scale database management. By offloading complex networking tasks, it reduces CPU utilization, allowing your server to dedicate more processing power to core business applications while minimizing latency across your high-speed storage and network fabric.
Can the 727060-B21 support FCoE and iSCSI protocols? +
Yes, this FlexFabric adapter is designed to support converged networking, including Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI. By consolidating LAN and SAN traffic onto a single 10Gb link, it helps simplify your cabling infrastructure and reduces the number of host bus adapters required in your HPE rack environment.
Does the 556FLR-SFP+ adapter require specific transceiver modules? +
The adapter features two SFP+ ports, which require compatible 10Gb SFP+ transceivers or Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables. To ensure maximum reliability and prevent compatibility errors, we recommend using HPE-branded transceivers and cables that have been tested and qualified for use with the 556FLR-SFP+ series to maintain optimal signal integrity.
How does the FlexibleLOM form factor benefit my server rack configuration? +
The FlexibleLOM design is an innovative way to add networking capabilities without consuming a valuable PCIe expansion slot. This allows IT administrators to maximize the I/O expandability of their HPE ProLiant servers, leaving those physical slots open for additional storage controllers, high-speed GPUs, or specialized accelerator cards as your infrastructure demands grow.
Is the HPE 556FLR-SFP+ adapter suitable for high-traffic virtualization environments? +
Absolutely. This adapter is optimized for virtualized environments, supporting advanced features such as SR-IOV, which enables virtual machines to bypass the hypervisor overhead and access hardware-level network performance directly. This significantly boosts throughput and minimizes latency, making it an excellent choice for dense consolidation clusters and cloud-based deployments.
What is the physical connection type on the 727060-B21? +
This adapter is equipped with two SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable) ports. These ports provide the flexibility to choose between short-range fiber optics for longer cable runs or cost-effective Twinax DAC cables for rack-to-rack or top-of-rack connectivity within your data center, ensuring versatility for various network topology requirements.
Does this network adapter support PXE boot and remote management? +
Yes, the 556FLR-SFP+ fully supports Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) boot, which is essential for remote operating system deployment and automated server provisioning. Integration with HPE iLO and other management tools ensures that you can configure and monitor your network connectivity remotely, maintaining high availability and efficient control over your server environment.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for the 727060-B21 adapter through BuyRouterSwitch.com? +
