Scheda di rete HP Enterprise 562T 10Gb 2 porte (modello 840137-001-RFB)

HP Enterprise 562T 10Gb 2-port network adapter delivers dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports intended for server and data center use. The card is designed to increase network throughput, reduce latency and support higher aggregated bandwidth for virtualized environments, storage networks and high-performance applications. Built to integrate with enterprise server platforms, this adapter offers a compact PCIe form factor and standard RJ-45 connectivity for deployment in existing copper-based 10GbE infrastructures.

Advantages

The adapter provides two independent 10GbE ports to enable link aggregation and redundancy while maintaining low CPU overhead. Native support for common Ethernet features and offload capabilities improves server efficiency and reduces processing load on the host. Broad compatibility with enterprise operating systems and virtualization platforms simplifies integration into existing network stacks. The card’s copper 10GbE interface allows reuse of structured cabling where 10GBASE-T is available, minimizing additional infrastructure changes.

Suitable for

• Server virtualization and hypervisor host networking
• High-throughput storage networks and backup servers
• Database servers and latency-sensitive applications
• Top-of-rack or aggregation connections in data centers
• Network uplinks where 10GBASE-T copper connectivity is preferred

Key specifications

• Interface: PCI Express (standard server add-in card form factor)
• Ports: 2 × 10 Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45, copper)
• Supported speed: 10 Gbps per port with auto-negotiation to lower speeds as required
• Offload features: checksum, large send/receive segmentation, and other common NIC offloads
• Form factor: low-profile/full-height compatible bracket options for server chassis
• Thermal and power characteristics optimized for enterprise server environments

How to use

Install the adapter into an available PCIe slot on a compatible server following the server manufacturer’s safe handling procedures. Secure the card with the appropriate bracket and connect standard Cat6a/Cat7 Ethernet cables to the RJ-45 ports for 10GbE links. After hardware installation, install or update the network driver provided by the server or operating system vendor and configure network settings such as link aggregation, VLANs and IP addressing through the host OS or management interface. Verify link status and throughput using standard network diagnostic tools.

Recommendations

Use shielded or certified Cat6a/Cat7 cabling for reliable 10GbE performance over copper and follow server vendor guidelines for driver versions and firmware updates. For virtualization and storage deployments, enable appropriate offload and flow control features to optimize CPU utilization and throughput. Consider link aggregation or multipathing to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy.
