Description

The HPE NVIDIA 100Gb 2-Port NVMe-oF Offload Network Adapter delivers dual 100GbE connectivity with hardware-accelerated NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) TCP offload, purpose-built for mission-critical HPE Gen10 Plus server deployments. Inline IPsec and TLS data-in-motion encryption engines, XTS-AES data-at-rest cryptographic offload, and T10 DIF signature handover at wire speed ensure your storage, virtualisation, and SDN/NFV workloads run securely without compromising throughput.

Installing into a PCIe Gen4 x16 slot (backward-compatible with PCIe Gen3), this adapter also supports NFS RDMA, SMB Direct, and programmable congestion control — providing a seamless upgrade path from legacy storage infrastructure. Hardware root of trust and secure firmware update protection further harden the adapter against supply-chain and runtime attacks. In stock and ready to ship from iptrading.com.au — order now for fast dispatch.

Features

- Hardware-accelerated NVMe-oF TCP offload enables seamless transition from legacy Ethernet storage to NVMe-based architectures
- Inline IPsec and TLS engines offload data-in-motion encryption without impacting CPU performance
- XTS-AES data-at-rest encryption/decryption offload protects stored data at wire speed
- Built-in stateful packet filtering adds an additional layer of network security
- T10 DIF signature handover at wire speed reduces congestion for both ingress and egress traffic
- Programmable congestion control optimises throughput for mixed storage and virtualisation workloads
- Hardware root of trust ensures secure boot integrity from power-on
- Secure firmware update mechanism protects against malicious firmware hijacking
- Supports NFS RDMA and SMB Direct for broad storage protocol coverage
- Designed and validated for HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus server platforms

Warranty

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) offers a standard limited hardware warranty on its products, with coverage periods varying by product line. For instance, HPE ProLiant servers typically come with a 1 to 3-year limited warranty, while other products may have different durations.

FAQs

Q: What storage protocols does the HPE R8M41A adapter support?
A: The adapter supports NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) TCP offload, NFS RDMA, and SMB Direct, making it suitable for a wide range of enterprise storage environments including all-flash NVMe arrays and traditional NAS.

Q: Does this adapter handle encryption in hardware, or does it rely on the host CPU?
A: Encryption is handled entirely in hardware. The adapter offloads both data-in-motion encryption (IPsec and TLS) and data-at-rest encryption (XTS-AES) from the host CPU, preserving server compute resources for application workloads.

Q: Which HPE servers is the R8M41A compatible with?
A: The adapter is validated for HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus servers. It installs into a PCIe Gen4 x16 slot and is backward-compatible with PCIe Gen3 slots, providing flexibility across compatible HPE platforms.

Q: Is the R8M41A suitable for virtualisation and SDN/NFV environments?
A: Yes. The adapter's programmable congestion control, inline packet filtering, and hardware offload engines make it well-suited for high-density virtualisation, software-defined networking (SDN), and network function virtualisation (NFV) deployments.

Q: Can I purchase the HPE R8M41A in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. The HPE R8M41A is in stock at iptrading.com.au and ready for fast dispatch to customers across Australia. IP Trading is a B2B IT hardware specialist offering competitive pricing and local support.

Q: What security features protect the adapter's firmware integrity?
A: The adapter includes a hardware root of trust that validates the boot process from power-on, and a secure firmware update mechanism that prevents malicious firmware from being loaded — providing robust supply-chain and runtime attack protection.
