About the HPE 700700-B21 - HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 561FLR-T FIO Adapter

This FlexibleLOM (FLR) form factor adapter installs directly into the FlexibleLOM riser slot of compatible HPE ProLiant servers, eliminating the need for additional expansion cards and preserving valuable PCIe slots for other devices. The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 561FLR-T FIO Adapter (part number 700700-B21) is a Factory Integrated Option that delivers dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with intelligent speed auto-negotiation across 10GbE, 1GbE, and 100MbE, supported by the Intel X540 network controller and backed by HPE's proven driver ecosystem across Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware vSphere environments.

Network architects and infrastructure teams requiring high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity will value the adapter's full suite of offload engines—including TSO, LRO, RSS, VLAN tag/strip, and interrupt moderation—paired with SR-IOV virtualization support for efficient multi-tenant and containerized deployments. Both RJ45 ports support CAT6A cabling at distances up to 100 meters at 10GbE speeds, and CAT7 standards compliance, ensuring seamless integration into existing data center cable plants. Comprehensive management through HPE iLO, HPE Insight Control, and HPE OneView provides unified visibility and control across your infrastructure. The adapter operates reliably within the standard server temperature range of 0°C to 55°C and connects via PCIe 2.0 x8 over the FlexibleLOM interface, delivering consistent performance on HPE ProLiant Gen8 and Gen9 servers with factory-installed integration simplifying deployment and reducing downtime.

Ideal Deployment Scenarios

  • High-performance virtualization clusters requiring SR-IOV multi-tenancy and consolidated network switching
  • Hybrid cloud and on-premise data centers needing dual 10GbE fabric without sacrificing PCIe lanes
  • Database and transactional workloads demanding low-latency, offload-accelerated networking
  • Consolidated infrastructure environments where space and power efficiency are critical constraints
  • Mixed-generation ProLiant deployments leveraging Gen8 and Gen9 server standardization
