HPE FlexFabric 630FLB 20Gb Networking
The 630FLB provides two 20Gb Ethernet ports in a FlexibleLOM form factor. HPE documentation states that each server-blade adapter connects to a 20Gb interconnect in bays 1 and 2 of an HPE BladeSystem c7000 enclosure, or bay 1 of a c3000 enclosure.
The adapter also supports 10Gb/s linking when it is not connected to a Flex-20 device, providing compatibility with appropriate lower-speed interconnect configurations.
Virtual Connect FlexFabric Integration
When used with HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric technology, the 630FLB can provide flexible allocation of network resources to server workloads. HPE's Virtual Connect documentation describes FlexFabric downlinks that can expose multiple FlexNICs and FlexHBA functions to a server, allowing network and storage traffic to be provisioned through the blade infrastructure.
This architecture is particularly useful for blade-server virtualization environments where network bandwidth and converged connectivity need to be allocated dynamically.
Network Virtualization and Enterprise Features
The 630FLB platform supports enterprise networking capabilities including VLAN tagging, jumbo frames, NIC teaming, Receive Side Scaling (RSS), PXE boot and virtualization technologies such as SR-IOV, VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ. These features make the adapter suitable for virtualized and high-density blade-server deployments.
Compatibility
HPE lists the 700066-B21 FlexFabric 20Gb 2-port 630FLB FIO Adapter for supported HPE blade-server configurations. Documented compatible server platforms include the following:
- HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen9
- HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen10
- HPE ProLiant BL660c Gen9
- HPE ProLiant WS460c Gen9
HPE also identifies the adapter with the HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric-20/40 F8 Module for c-Class BladeSystem.
FIO Adapter Configuration
The 700066-B21 is the FIO version of the 630FLB. HPE distinguishes it from the standard 630FLB adapter, which uses option number 700065-B21.
When sourcing a replacement, verify the existing FlexibleLOM option, server blade model and BladeSystem interconnect configuration to ensure the correct adapter variant is selected.
Applications
- HPE BladeSystem c-Class networking
- HPE ProLiant BL460c Gen9 and Gen10 deployments
- HPE ProLiant BL660c Gen9 deployments
- HPE WS460c Gen9 graphics server blades
- Virtualized data-center environments
- HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric networks
- Network bandwidth partitioning and virtualization
- Server replacement and refurbishment projects
Important Compatibility Notes
The 630FLB is a blade-server FlexibleLOM adapter, not a conventional PCIe add-in network card. It is intended for supported HPE BladeSystem c-Class server blades and corresponding interconnect infrastructure.
HPE specifies a minimum of 2GB of server memory for the adapter. The exact network features available also depend on the installed Virtual Connect interconnect and server configuration.
