399593-B22 - HP Proliant BL C7000 1/10GB Virtual Connect Ethernet Module Option Kit for c-Class BladeSystem

Description

The HP 399593-B22 is a high-performance Ethernet module designed to integrate seamlessly with HP's Virtual Connect architecture within the HP BladeSystem. This module provides converged network capabilities, allowing for both 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps Ethernet connections to be established between the blade servers and the network infrastructure. Its primary function is to simplify network connectivity by reducing the number of cables and network interface cards (NICs) required per server. This module supports dual-speed operation, offering backward compatibility with 1 Gbps networks while providing the high throughput necessary for demanding applications at 10 Gbps. The 10 Gbps capability is crucial for modern data centers that require high bandwidth for virtualization, storage traffic, and high-performance computing. The Virtual Connect technology associated with this module allows for network profiles to be defined and assigned to server blades, enabling administrators to easily move or reassign network connections without physical recabling. Designed for installation within the HP Virtual Connect module bays in a blade chassis, the 399593-B22 offers a robust and scalable solution for network connectivity. It simplifies network management, reduces operational costs, and enhances the overall agility of the IT environment. This module is a key component for organizations looking to build efficient and flexible server infrastructures.
