Description
Performance and Scalability
The HPE CN1000Q Converged Network Adapter delivers high performance and scalability, providing users with 10 GbE connectivity for networking, storage, and clustering applications. It is designed for ProLiant Generation 6 and 7 servers, and it features two ports with 10 GbE capacity per port.
The adapter provides line-rate, low-latency 10 GbE throughput across all ports, making it ideal for high-performance computing, storage, and data center applications. It also supports jumbo frames up to 9,000 bytes, which can improve network efficiency by reducing the number of packets required to transmit data.
In terms of scalability, the HPE CN1000Q supports Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) protocols, allowing it to be used for converged networking solutions. This means that the adapter can be used to consolidate both networking and storage traffic onto a single network fabric, reducing the number of cables and switches required in the data center. This can result in cost savings and improved manageability.
Furthermore, the HPE CN1000Q supports a wide range of operating systems, including Microsoft Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware ESX. It also supports various virtualization technologies, such as VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Citrix XenServer, enabling it to be used in virtualized environments.
Maximizing Network Connectivity
The HPE CN1000Q Converged Network Adapter is designed to maximize network connectivity by providing up to 10Gb/s of bandwidth per port, which enables faster data transfer rates and reduces latency. It supports a wide range of connectivity options, including Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), iSCSI, and RDMA, making it an ideal solution for high-performance computing (HPC), cloud computing, and virtualized environments.
With its advanced QoS and traffic management capabilities, the HPE CN1000Q Converged Network Adapter can prioritize traffic based on application requirements, ensuring that critical traffic gets the necessary bandwidth and minimizing network congestion. It also supports hardware offloading of TCP/IP and iSCSI protocols, reducing CPU utilization and improving network efficiency.
The HPE CN1000Q Converged Network Adapter is designed for scalability, with support for up to 256 virtual functions (VFs) per adapter and up to 8 physical functions (PFs) per port. This enables multiple virtual machines (VMs) to share a single physical adapter, reducing the number of adapters required and simplifying network management.
In addition, the HPE CN1000Q Converged Network Adapter supports jumbo frames, which allow larger packets to be transmitted over the network, reducing the number of packets required and improving network efficiency. It also supports VLAN tagging, which enables network administrators to segment the network into virtual LANs (VLANs), improving network security and reducing broadcast traffic.
Simplifying Network Switch Management
The HPE CN1000Q 2 Port Converged Network Adapter simplifies network switch management through a variety of features, including:
- Flexibility in Network Configurations: The CN1000Q adapter is designed to work with multiple network configurations, including Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI. This flexibility allows for simplified network switch management as it eliminates the need for multiple adapters.
- Virtualization Support: The CN1000Q adapter provides support for virtualization technologies, allowing for the creation and management of virtual networks. This feature simplifies switch management by reducing the need for physical switches.
- Plug-and-Play Operation: The CN1000Q adapter can be easily installed and configured, allowing for quick and easy deployment. This plug-and-play operation reduces the time and effort required for switch management.
- Management and Monitoring: The adapter includes management and monitoring tools that enable network administrators to quickly identify and troubleshoot network issues. This feature simplifies switch management by providing a centralized location for monitoring and management tasks.
- Compatibility: The CN1000Q adapter is compatible with a variety of network switches, including those from HPE and other vendors. This compatibility simplifies switch management by allowing for easy integration into existing network infrastructures.
