Description

The HPE NVIDIA 10/25GbE 2-Port SFP28 NVMe-oF Crypto Network Adapter delivers dual-port 10 or 25 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity via a PCIe Gen 4 x8 interface, purpose-built for secure, high-performance data centre environments. With built-in hardware encryption, Hardware Root of Trust, and NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) TCP acceleration, it enables seamless storage modernisation and protects mission-critical workloads — including virtualisation, SDN/NFV, Big Data, and machine learning — at wire speed.

Programmable congestion control optimises network performance under demanding conditions, while full backward compatibility with PCIe Gen 3 simplifies integration into existing server infrastructure. This adapter is specifically validated and designed for HPE server platforms, ensuring a supported and streamlined deployment.

FAQs

Q: What servers is the HPE S2A69A network adapter compatible with?
A: The S2A69A is designed and validated for HPE server platforms. It uses a PCIe Gen 4 x8 interface and is backward compatible with PCIe Gen 3 slots, making it suitable for a broad range of current and previous-generation HPE rack and tower servers. Check the HPE SPP (Service Pack for ProLiant) compatibility matrix for your specific server model.

Q: What is NVMe-oF TCP and why does it matter for storage performance?
A: NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF) TCP allows NVMe storage commands to be transmitted over standard TCP/IP Ethernet networks without requiring specialised RDMA infrastructure. This adapter offloads NVMe-oF TCP processing in hardware, reducing CPU overhead and delivering low-latency, high-throughput access to NVMe and persistent memory storage — ideal for data centres transitioning from legacy SAN or iSCSI environments.

Q: What security capabilities does the built-in hardware encryption provide?
A: The adapter includes on-chip cryptographic acceleration and a Hardware Root of Trust, ensuring data is encrypted in-flight across the network without taxing the host CPU. This is critical for workloads involving sensitive data in virtualised, SDN/NFV, Big Data, or machine learning environments where both performance and regulatory compliance are required.

Q: Can this adapter run at 10GbE as well as 25GbE?
A: Yes. Each SFP28 port is dual-rate capable, supporting both 10GbE and 25GbE connectivity. This provides flexibility when connecting to existing 10G switch infrastructure while offering a clear upgrade path to 25G as network capacity demands grow.

Q: Is the HPE S2A69A available in Australia and can I order it from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) stocks the HPE S2A69A and ships Australia-wide. It is available for immediate dispatch — contact the team for volume pricing, lead times, or compatibility queries specific to your HPE server environment.

Q: Does this adapter require additional software or drivers to enable NVMe-oF and encryption features?
A: The NVMe-oF TCP and hardware encryption capabilities are built into the adapter's ASIC and are supported via standard NVIDIA (formerly Mellanox) drivers. HPE's Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP) includes validated driver packages for HPE-specific deployments. No separate licence is required to enable these features.
