The HPE FlexFabric 10Gb 2-port 536FLB adapter features the next generation of 10Gb Ethernet offering in a single chip solution on a FlexibleLOM form factor, further reducing power requirements for 2 ports of 10Gb Ethernet. It is designed for use with HPE BladeSystem c-Class Gen9 servers. It provides full duplex high performance Ethernet connectivity with support for HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric blade interconnect technology, allowing each 10GbE port to be divided into four physical NICs and optimize bandwidth management for virtualized servers. The HPE 536FLB FlexFabric network adapter, in conjunction with HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric technology, helps to extend the benefits of virtualization beyond the server and into the rest of the infrastructure. The HPE 536FLB supports enterprise class features such as VLAN tagging, adaptive interrupt coalescing, MSI-X, NIC teaming (bonding), Tunnel offload, Receive Side Scaling (RSS), jumbo frames and PXE boot. It also supports virtualization features such as SR-IOV, VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ.

• Full hardware offload of iSCSI and FCoE storage protocol processing for highest performance converged Ethernet data and storage networks.

• Dual-port 10GbE Flex-10 FlexibleLOM network adapter that provides the flexibility to choose the type of LOM to meet growing infrastructure needs. Industry-leading throughput and latency performance, Optimized for virtual server environments with support for HPE Flex-10 Technology, Network Partitioning (NPAR) and Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) User configurable bandwidth settings when combined with the 10Gb Flex-10 Virtual Connect module. From 100Mb/s to10Gb/s on up to four "Physical Function" NICs per port, in increments of 100Mb/s for NIC. The combined bandwidth of NICs cannot exceed port bandwidth i.e. 10 Gb. Up to 40Gb/s bi-directional near line rate throughput
  Hardware acceleration and offloads for stateless TCP/IP, Improved small packet performance, Support for Tunnel Offload (NVGRE, VxLAN), Support for Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE), Integrated PHY and MAC. 

• The HPE 536FLB adapter delivers 20,000 Mbps full duplex Ethernet transfer rate per port (40 Gbps aggregate full duplex), providing the network performance needed to improve response times and alleviate bottlenecks. 10Gb Ethernet bandwidth is ideal for high performance computing, database clusters.

• Evolve 10Gb at your own speed! When paired with the HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric 10Gb Ethernet, Modules, take advantage of four Flex Nics, which are PCI Physical Function devices that are OS/ Hypervisor independent. In addition take advantage of iSCSI and FCoE storage offload capabilitymaking it a full-Converged Network Adapter (CNA) Server ROM recognizes them as individual NICs, Speeds can be set per NIC from 100Mb to 10Gbs in 100Mb increments
  Threefold increase in number of network connections per port. Up to four physical function NICs per port. Ideal for virtualized server environment, especially for dedicated bandwidth application like virtual machine migration from one physical server to another physical server.

• The HPE 536FLB adapter supports jumbo frames (also known as extended frames), permitting up to a 9K byte (KB) transmission unit (MTU) when running Ethernet I/O traffic. This is over 5X the size of a standard 1500-byte Ethernet frame. With jumbo frames, networks can achieve higher throughput performance and greater CPU utilization. These attributes are particularly useful for database transfer and tape backup operations. 

• The HPE 536FLB supports accelerated iSCSI or iSCSI boot and FCoE.

• Compatible with HPE FlexibleLOM slot for c-Class Gen9 blade servers
• The HPE 536FLB adapter support for NIC teaming helps IT administrators increase network fault tolerance and improve workload balance. These capabilities optimize availability, improve performance and help reduce costs
• The HPE 536FLB adapter can be administered from HPE Systems Insight Manager (SIM). The adapters can be managed individually or in teams, providing SNMP based statistics for reporting purposes. The 534FLB adapter can also be managed by other applications with SNMP support.
