Adaptador de rede HP Enterprise Ethernet Adapter 10Gb 2P 561T, porta dupla 10Gb

The HP Enterprise Ethernet Adapter 10Gb 2P 561T is a dual-port 10 Gigabit network adapter engineered for server and data center environments that require high throughput and reliable wired connectivity. It provides two independent 10Gb ports to deliver increased bandwidth and redundancy, supporting virtualization, storage networking and heavy network traffic. The adapter is designed to integrate with enterprise-class servers and networking stacks to help optimize network performance and resource utilization.

Advantages

The adapter offers dual 10Gb ports for aggregating bandwidth or providing failover paths without additional changes to server topology. It supports low-latency, high-throughput links suitable for I/O intensive workloads and can be used to separate storage, management and production networks. The hardware is engineered for compatibility with common server form factors and enterprise operating systems, facilitating deployment and maintenance in rack and blade infrastructures.

Suitable for

• Virtualization hosts running multiple VMs with high network I/O demands
• Storage networking where 10Gb connections accelerate access to NAS/SAN systems
• High-traffic application servers and web farms requiring increased bandwidth
• Redundant network paths for improved uptime in data center deployments

Key specifications

• Interface: dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports
• Connection type: wired 10Gb network links
• Form factor: add-in network adapter for standard server slots
• Designed use: server and data center networking, virtualization and storage access
• Performance: low-latency, high-throughput 10Gb connectivity per port

How to use

Install the adapter into a compatible server PCIe slot following the server vendor’s hardware installation guidelines, ensure the server is powered down and grounded before handling components. Connect each 10Gb port to the network switch or storage fabric using appropriate 10Gb-compatible cabling and transceivers. After physical installation, verify that the server BIOS/firmware recognizes the adapter, install vendor or operating-system drivers as required, and configure link aggregation, VLANs or other network settings through the host operating system or management tools to match your network topology.

Recommendations

Use quality 10Gb SFP+/copper transceivers and compatible cabling rated for 10 Gigabit operation. Where redundancy or higher aggregated throughput is needed, combine the two ports using link aggregation or multipath configuration at the switch and host levels. Keep firmware and drivers updated to maintain compatibility and performance, and follow server vendor guidance for thermal and power considerations in dense rack deployments.
