HP 699350-001 16x FlexFabric 10/20GB Ethernet Expansion Module

Description

The HP 699350-001 is a high-performance 16-port 10/20Gb Ethernet Expansion Module designed for the HP BladeSystem c7000 enclosure. This module leverages HP's FlexFabric technology to provide advanced networking capabilities, including high throughput and intelligent traffic management. It allows server blades within the c7000 chassis to connect to the network at speeds of either 10Gb/s or 20Gb/s, depending on the capabilities of the connected devices and network infrastructure. This expansion module is crucial for environments requiring high-bandwidth network connectivity, such as those supporting virtualization, high-performance computing, or large-scale data storage. The FlexFabric architecture aims to simplify network infrastructure by converging Ethernet and storage traffic, offering greater flexibility and efficiency. It also provides features that can offload certain network processing tasks from the server blades, improving overall server performance. Designed for seamless integration into the c7000 enclosure, the 699350-001 is hot-pluggable, allowing for installation or replacement without interrupting the operation of the blade system. This ensures high availability and simplifies maintenance in demanding data center environments. Its 16 high-speed ports offer significant port density and connectivity options for a wide range of enterprise networking needs.
