Description
Introduction to the HPE 10GBPS Adapter
The 665243-B21 HPE 10GBPS 560FLR-SFP+ PCI Express Dual-Ports Network Adapter is a high-performance network adapter designed for use in data center and enterprise environments. It is a dual-port adapter, meaning it has two SFP+ (small form-factor pluggable) ports for connecting to 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks.
The adapter is designed for use with PCI Express (PCIe) slots, which are commonly found in servers and workstations. This allows for high-speed data transfer between the adapter and the host system, making it ideal for use in high-bandwidth applications such as data storage, virtualization, and high-performance computing.
The 560FLR-SFP+ in the product name stands for “560 FlexibleLOM (LAN on Motherboard) – SFP+”, indicating that it is designed for use with HPE servers that have a FlexibleLOM slot. The adapter is also fully compatible with other servers and workstations that have a PCIe slot.

Installation and configuration
The 665243-B21 HPE 10GBPS 560FLR-SFP+ PCI Express Dual-Ports Network Adapter is a high-speed network card that is designed to provide fast and reliable network connectivity for servers and workstations. The adapter can be installed and configured in several steps:
- First, the adapter must be physically installed into the server or workstation. This typically involves opening the computer case and inserting the adapter into an available PCI Express slot.
- Next, the appropriate drivers for the adapter must be installed. These can typically be obtained from the HPE website or from the included installation disk.
- Once the drivers are installed, the adapter must be configured in the operating system. This typically involves going into the network settings and configuring the adapter with the appropriate IP address, subnet mask, and gateway information.
- Once the adapter is configured, it must be tested to ensure that it is working properly. This can typically be done by pinging the adapter from another computer or by using a network troubleshooting tool to check for connectivity.
- If the adapter is not working properly, it may be necessary to troubleshoot the issue. This can involve checking the adapter for any loose connections, ensuring that the driver is up to date, or checking for any conflicts with other network devices.
- Finally, it is important to update the firmware of the adapter to the latest version to ensure that it is running optimally. This can typically be done by downloading the latest firmware from the HPE website and following the instructions for installation.
