HPE 867796-B21 Virtual Connect SE 100Gb/s F32 Module for Synergy 6820C

Product Description

The HPE 867796-B21 is a high-performance network module engineered for the HPE Synergy platform, a composable infrastructure solution. This Virtual Connect SE module delivers 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, providing the necessary bandwidth to support the most demanding server workloads and high-speed interconnects within the Synergy compute modules. It is designed to be a core component of a converged network infrastructure, consolidating Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and other network traffic onto a single, high-speed fabric. As part of the Virtual Connect ecosystem, this module simplifies network management by abstracting the network from the server hardware. Administrators can define network profiles and deploy them to compute modules without manual network configuration on each server. This approach significantly reduces deployment times, minimizes errors, and streamlines ongoing network operations. The 100Gb/s capability ensures that servers have ample bandwidth for data-intensive applications, virtualization, and high-performance computing tasks. The module integrates seamlessly with HPE Synergy Composer and other management tools, providing a unified view and control over both compute and network resources. It supports advanced features for traffic management, quality of service (QoS), and security, ensuring that network resources are allocated efficiently and protected. The HPE 867796-B21 is a critical component for organizations seeking to build a flexible, scalable, and high-performance data center infrastructure with HPE Synergy.
