HP Network Interface Cards

Expand the wireless and wired networking capabilities of your workstation using a HP network interface card (NIC). Choose from a wide range of form factors designed to meet your unique space requirements. Equipped with advanced hardware offload engines, HP Ethernet network cards deliver optimal server performance. Most models have built-in safeguards that protect your data and business network. With low latency, they boost input/output (I/O) bandwidth for increased performance. Some HP NICs have built-in Bluetooth® and Wi-Fi® technology, allowing clutter-free wireless connectivity.

A HP Network Interface Card Secures Your Data

A HP Ethernet NIC often blocks the installation of corrupted firmware, enhancing data security. Enterprise models limit unmanaged access to your data center through hardware-level firewalls. Their specific architecture provides tractability into firmware updates by recording changes in standard system logs. Using Secure Boot functionality, some models safeguard your network interface cards by confirming that no rogue drives initiate during start-up. Embedded with hardware root of trust and authentication mechanisms, these HP adapters cryptographically verify all data on their System on Chips (SOC).

Enjoy Increased Input/Output Bandwidth With HP Adapters

A HP Ethernet adapter delivers single root I/O virtualization (SR-IOV), enabling the simultaneous running of multiple virtual machines (VM) per server. This function eliminates the need for additional hardware, reducing space and power demands. Embedded with remote direct memory access (RDMA) and Converged Ethernet (RoCE v2) technology, most HP adapters minimize central processing unit (CPU) usage. Reduced CPU utilization helps improve the host virtual machine density and server efficiency, allowing application in Live Migration™ environments. By offloading VM network management to general network interface cards, built-in Virtual Extensible Local Area Network (VXLAN) technology improves network scalability. This enables deployment in large cloud-based servers. With data plane development packet (DPDK) technology, HP models offer speedy packet processing, enabling your system to service large volumes of input/output commands.

Get Enhanced Network Productivity With a HP 10Gigabit Ethernet Card

Designed with multiple high-speed interfaces, a HP 10Gigabit Ethernet card boosts your networking performance with full line-rate 10Gbe throughput across all ports. Most support Virtual LAN (VLAN) tagging, enhancing network management and efficiency. Designed with HP Enterprise™ ProActive Insight™ architecture, most cards offer simple storage and management. For added convenience, consider Intel® network interface cards using a single interface. Some HP network adapters support the Internet-Wide Area Remote Direct (IWARP) networking protocol, delivering low latency. This speeds up application functioning, allowing use in high-performance computing clusters. Other HP network cards reduce packet processing with tunnel offloads such as Network Virtualization using Generic Routing Encapsulation (NVGRE), minimizing CPU power consumption. A HP Server adapter often transmits Ethernet and storage traffic over a single physical connection, simplifying management and saving resources. Efficiently built, notebook network modules come with a tiny footprint to extend your laptop’s battery life.

HP Wireless Adapters Are Versatile

HP wireless NICs and modules come with multiple connectivity options for increased versatility. Equipped with Bluetooth technology, they allow speedy pairing of your peripherals. Wi-Fi adapters often use multiple radios per band, ensuring fast connection speeds. With built-in LED indicators, they display accurate connectivity status.
