  • Flex-10 divides each 10GbE port into four NICs for bandwidth control
  • Single-chip design on FlexibleLOM cuts power draw for dual 10Gb ports
  • Full-duplex 10Gb Ethernet links built for BladeSystem c-Class Gen8 servers
  • Enterprise features include VLAN tagging, RSS, jumbo frames and PXE boot
  • Part 684211-B21 model 530FLB delivers two 10Gb ports in one module

Product Identity

The HPE 530FLB is a FlexibleLOM network adapter that delivers two 10Gb Ethernet ports through a single-chip design. It is built for HP BladeSystem c-Class Gen8 servers and integrates with Virtual Connect Flex-10 technology to partition each physical port into four logical NICs.

Fit and Exclusions

This module suits administrators who need 10Gb connectivity in a Gen8 blade chassis and want to reduce cable count by using Virtual Connect Flex-10 partitioning. Buyers whose blade enclosure lacks FlexibleLOM slots or who require more than two physical 10Gb ports should look at a different adapter.

Deciding Specification

The adapter provides exactly two 10Gb Ethernet ports on a FlexibleLOM form factor with part number 684211-B21. That port count and form factor together determine whether the module fits the open slot and meets the density requirement.

Questions about this item

Will the 530FLB FlexibleLOM module fit in an existing HP BladeSystem c-Class Gen8 enclosure alongside older mezzanine cards?

The 530FLB uses the FlexibleLOM form factor and is designed for HP BladeSystem c-Class Gen8 servers, so it installs in the dedicated LOM slot without displacing mezzanine cards.

How can I verify the 530FLB adapter is operating at 10Gb speeds on both ports after installation?

Check the link LEDs on the module and confirm 10Gb full-duplex status in the server BIOS or operating system network settings for each port.

Does the 684211-B21 package include any cables or transceivers, or must they be purchased separately?

The adapter ships as the module only; compatible SFP+ transceivers and cables for the two 10GbE ports are sold separately.
