Are you looking for an dual-function EDR InfiniBand and/or 100GbE adapter for your HPE ProLiant XL and DL Server families? The HPE InfiniBand EDR/EN 2-Port Adapter is designed for customers who need low latency and high bandwidth for high performance computing (HPC) systems with their HPE ProLiant XL and DL Server families in the data center. Based on Mellanox® ConnectX-4 technology for scalability and fabric flexibility, the dual ported card can function as a dual-port EDR InfiniBand card, or a dual-port 100GbE card, or a mixed function card. Combined with HPE EDR InfiniBand Switches or 100GbE Switches, they deliver low latency and up to 100 Gbps bandwidth, ideal for performance-driven server and storage clustering applications in HPC and enterprise data centers.

What's new

• Increased performance over the FDR InfiniBand adapters (in EDR InfiniBand mode).

• Up to a 2.5x performance improvement over 40GbE adapters (in 100GbE mode).
