Module

First single-wide blade10Gb Ethernet Module

First to divide a single network port into 4 separate connections with
full hardware performance
First to fine tune each network connection dynamically from 100Mb
to 10Gb.
First to optimize performance to the demands of virtual server
workloads and network channels
First to support up to 32 network connections on a single server
blade 5x the competition.
First extension of HPs award winning Virtual Connect architecture
and the first to be built-in to a server blade.

Divide and Fine Tune
What is Flex-10 technology?
Two components:
10Gb Server NICs that can be carved into multiple individual
FlexNICs
Each FlexNIC is recognized by server ROM as an individual
NIC.
The Bandwidth for each FlexNIC is user defined from 100Mb
to 10Gb.

Virtual Connect Flex-10 Uplinks
Simple Network Side Connectivity
Virtual Connect Flex 10 traffic appears to the data center switch as
10Gb NICs with VLAN tags.
Shared Uplink Sets using Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP) allows the creation of Ethernet channeling with upstream
switches that conform to IEEE 802.3ad. Ports can alternatively be
configured for failover only.
External ports within a Port Set can be on the same VC Ethernet
module or on multiple VC modules within the VC domain.
Fast MAC Cache failover enables rapid recovery of network
connections when a standby module becomes active.
Smart Link network senses a failed upstream switch connection and
allows teamed NIC's to properly failover.
Configure uplink speeds to Auto, 10Mb, 100Mb, 1Gb,or 10Gb on
the associated uplinks

Multi-enclosure VC Domains
Ethernet Stacking Connections
Any fully-connected topology is
supported
For each vNet, VC creates a loop-

Serial technology enables choice
Serial ATA (SATA) and
Serial SCSI (SAS)
benefits:
Star topology (point-to-
point, no hubs)
SATA and SAS drives are
hot-pluggable
2.5 drives will consume
70% less space and 30%
SAS drives less power than 3.5
drives enterprise drives
SATA drives SATA drives have a
1 year warranty
One backplane accommodates
both SAS and SATA drives
High-performance and highly-reliable Serial Attached SCSI disk drives
can be used for mission critical and performance-oriented applications
High-capacity SATA drives can be used for disk enhanced backup or
non-mission critical reference data
