Description
Features and Specifications
The C3N37AA HPE 361T Pcie Dual Port Gigabit NIC Network Adapter is a network adapter designed for use in high-performance computing environments. It is produced by Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (HPE), a leading provider of IT solutions for businesses.
Here are some of the key features and specifications of the C3N37AA HPE 361T Pcie Dual Port Gigabit NIC Network Adapter:
- Dual Port Gigabit Ethernet: This network adapter has two Gigabit Ethernet ports, allowing for high-speed network connectivity and redundancy.
- PCI Express Interface: The adapter uses a PCI Express interface, which provides high bandwidth and low latency for data transfers.
- Intel Ethernet Controller: The adapter uses an Intel Ethernet Controller, which is a reliable and well-established brand in the networking industry.
- Jumbo Frame Support: The adapter supports jumbo frames, which are larger-than-standard Ethernet frames. This can improve network performance by reducing the number of frames that need to be transmitted.
- VLAN Support: The adapter supports Virtual LANs (VLANs), which allow for the creation of separate virtual networks within a physical network.
- IPv6 Support: The adapter supports the IPv6 protocol, which is the latest version of the Internet Protocol and provides improved functionality and security over the older IPv4 protocol.
- Low Profile Design: The adapter has a low profile design, making it compatible with a wide range of server and workstation chassis.
Physical Characteristics
The C3N37AA HPE 361T PCIe Dual Port Gigabit NIC Network Adapter is a network interface card (NIC) that is designed to provide reliable and high-performance network connectivity to servers and workstations. Here are the physical characteristics of this adapter:
- Form Factor: The HPE 361T NIC is designed to fit into a PCIe expansion slot on a server or workstation. It is a full-height, half-length card that occupies one PCIe x4 slot.
- Ports: This network adapter has two RJ-45 ports, each supporting Gigabit Ethernet connectivity (10/100/1000 Mbps). These ports are located on the bracket of the adapter, which extends outside of the server or workstation.
- Dimensions: The HPE 361T NIC measures 6.6 inches in length and 4.7 inches in height.
- LED Indicators: The adapter features LED indicators on the bracket that provide status information about the network connections. There are two LED indicators per port, one for link/activity and one for speed.
- Chipset: The HPE 361T NIC uses the Intel 82576 Gigabit Ethernet Controller, which provides advanced features such as TCP/IP checksum offloading, TCP segmentation offloading, and support for jumbo frames.
Installation Process
The HPE 361T PCIe Dual Port Gigabit NIC Network Adapter (part number C3N37AA) is a network interface card designed to provide high-speed Ethernet connectivity to a computer or server. Here are the steps to install this adapter:
- Turn off the computer or server and unplug it from the power source.
- Open the computer case and locate an available PCIe slot. The HPE 361T card is a full-height, half-length card, so make sure the slot can accommodate it.
- Remove the metal bracket covering the PCIe slot where you want to install the card.
- Insert the HPE 361T card into the PCIe slot, making sure it is firmly seated. Press down gently on the card until it clicks into place.
- Secure the card in place by screwing in the metal bracket you removed earlier.
- Close the computer case and plug the computer back into the power source.
- Turn on the computer and wait for the operating system to detect the new network adapter. Depending on the operating system, you may need to install drivers for the HPE 361T card to work properly.
- Once the drivers are installed, configure the network settings on your computer or server to use the HPE 361T card for network connectivity.
That’s it! With the HPE 361T PCIe Dual Port Gigabit NIC Network Adapter installed, you should be able to enjoy high-speed network connectivity on your computer or server.
