HPE Synergy 6820C 25/50Gb Converged Network Adapter (P02054-B21) is a mezzanine Ethernet adapter for HPE Synergy networking. Its two ports provide 25/50Gb connectivity for network intensive workloads.
The adapter uses a PCIe Gen3 x16 bus. Network acceleration can help reduce CPU load, while RDMA support includes iWARP, RoCE and RoCEv2. These capabilities support demanding data movement, including live migration and SMB Direct environments.
Hardware tunnel offloads cover VXLAN, GENEVE and NVGRE. HPE positions the adapter for increasing network bandwidth compared with 10/20Gb connectivity and for use with high density 50G Ethernet switching in Synergy environments.
