HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric-20/40 F8 Module for c-Class BladeSystem with TAA - For Data Networking, Optical Network12 x Expansion Slots 691367-B22

HPE Virtual Connect FlexFabric-20/40 F8 Modules are the simplest, most flexible way to connect virtualized server blades to data or storage networks. VC FlexFabric-20/40 F8 modules eliminate up to 95% of network sprawl at the server edge with one device that converges traffic inside enclosures and directly connects to external LANs and SANs. Using Flex-10 and Flex-20 technology with Fibre Channel over Ethernet and accelerated iSCSI, these modules converge traffic over high-speed 10Gb/20Gb connections to servers with HPE FlexFabric Adapters. Each redundant pair of Virtual Connect FlexFabric modules provide eight adjustable downlink connections ( six Ethernet and two Fibre Channel, or six Ethernet and two iSCSI or eight Ethernet) to dual-port 10Gb/20Gb FlexFabric Adapters on each server. Up to twelve uplinks with eight Flexport and four QSFP+ interfaces, without splitter cables, are available for connection to upstream Ethernet and Fibre Channel switches. Including splitter cables up to 24 uplinks are available for connection to upstream Ethernet and Fibre Channel. VC FlexFabric-20/40 F8 modules avoid the confusion of traditional and other converged network solutions by eliminating the need for multiple Ethernet and Fibre Channel switches, extension modules, cables and software licenses. Also, Virtual Connect wire-once connection management is built-in enabling server adds, moves and replacement in minutes instead of days or weeks.
