Description
High-Speed Connectivity
The HPE Ethernet 1GB 2-Port 332t Adapter is designed to provide high-speed connectivity, with features that enable faster data transfer and lower latency. Some of the key features that contribute to high-speed connectivity include:
- Dual Ports: The adapter includes two ports, providing redundancy and load balancing capabilities that improve network performance and availability.
- Gigabit Ethernet: The adapter supports gigabit Ethernet, providing high-speed data transfer rates of up to 1 Gbps, which is ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications such as video streaming and large file transfers.
- Jumbo Frames: The adapter includes support for jumbo frames, which enables larger packets to be transmitted over the network, reducing overhead and improving network efficiency.
- TCP Offload Engine (TOE): The adapter includes support for TOE, which offloads TCP/IP processing from the CPU to the adapter, reducing CPU utilization and improving network performance.
- Network Interface Card (NIC) Teaming: The adapter supports NIC teaming, which enables multiple adapters to be grouped together to provide higher throughput and redundancy.
- Quality of Service (QoS): The adapter includes support for QoS, which enables administrators to prioritize network traffic based on specific criteria, ensuring that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth and minimizing latency for time-sensitive applications.
- Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): The adapter includes support for LACP, which enables multiple ports to be grouped together to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy.
Easy Installation and Configuration
The HPE Ethernet 1GB 2-Port 332t Adapter is designed to be easy to install and configure, with features that simplify the process for administrators. Some of the key features that contribute to easy installation and configuration include:
- Plug and Play: The adapter is designed to be plug-and-play, which means that it can be installed and configured easily without requiring extensive technical knowledge or training.
- Auto-Negotiation: The adapter includes support for auto-negotiation, which enables it to automatically detect and configure the optimal settings for speed, duplex mode, and flow control based on the capabilities of the connected device.
- Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) Support: The adapter includes support for PXE, which enables it to boot from a network server, simplifying the process of deploying new servers and operating systems.
- Integrated Management: The adapter includes integrated management tools, such as HPE System Management Homepage, which provide a central interface for monitoring and managing network devices, simplifying administration and reducing the risk of errors.
- Remote Management: The adapter includes support for remote management, which enables administrators to manage network devices from a remote location, improving flexibility and reducing the need for on-site management.
- Online Firmware Upgrades: The adapter includes support for online firmware upgrades, which enables administrators to upgrade the adapter firmware without shutting down the server, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance.
- Driver Support: The adapter is designed to work with a wide range of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and VMware, and includes drivers that can be easily downloaded from the HPE website.
- Easy Access and Installation: The adapter is designed for easy access and installation, with a low-profile bracket that enables it to be installed in a wide range of server models.
Advanced Network Management Capabilities
The HPE Ethernet 1GB 2-Port 332t Adapter is designed with advanced network management capabilities, providing administrators with greater control and visibility over their network infrastructure. Some of the key features that contribute to these capabilities include:
- Network Management Software: The adapter is designed to work seamlessly with HPE network management software, such as HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC), providing administrators with a comprehensive set of tools for managing network devices, configuring policies, and monitoring network performance.
- VLAN Support: The adapter includes support for VLAN tagging, which enables administrators to segment network traffic and improve network security by isolating different types of traffic.
- Network Monitoring: The adapter includes support for network monitoring, which enables administrators to monitor network performance, identify bottlenecks, and troubleshoot network issues.
- SNMP Support: The adapter includes support for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), enabling administrators to monitor and manage network devices from a central location.
- Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP): The adapter includes support for LLDP, which enables network devices to discover and advertise their capabilities and status, improving network management and troubleshooting.
- Traffic Management: The adapter includes support for traffic management, enabling administrators to prioritize network traffic and allocate bandwidth based on specific criteria, such as application type or user group.
- Port Mirroring: The adapter includes support for port mirroring, which enables administrators to mirror traffic from one port to another for analysis or monitoring purposes.
- Network Health Monitoring: The adapter includes support for network health monitoring, enabling administrators to monitor the health of the network infrastructure, identify potential issues, and proactively take action to address them.
