Introduction

The HP 332T is a dual-port, low-cost, low profile 1Gb adapter featuring the BCM5720 Broadcom single-chip solution in a PCIe 2.0 compliant form factor designed for select HP ProLiant Gen8 and Gen7 ML/DL/SL servers. It delivers full line-rate performance across all ports with low power consumption, providing Ethernet connectivity ideal for virtualization, security, server consolidation, and network segmentation. Supported advanced features include Large Send and Receive offload capability, TCP checksum and segmentation, VLAN tagging, MSI-X, jumbo frames, IEEE 1588 (Precision Time Protocol - PTP), and virtualization features such as VMware NetQueue and Microsoft Virtual Machine Queue (VMQ). Support for HP Sea of Sensors 3D Technology enhances server performance while reducing energy use and expense.

Single-chip, dual-port, 1Gb Ethernet adapter designed for performance and energy savings.
An aggregate, full duplex transfer rate of 4 Gbps per adapter improves response times and alleviates bottlenecks. Comprehensive stateless offloads optimize host efficiency and virtual machine density by offloading network processes from the host CPU. Virtualization support for VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ helps meet the performance demands of consolidated virtual workloads. Support for MSI/MSI-X provides performance benefits for multi-core servers by load balancing interrupts between CPUs/cores. Support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) reduces operating expenses.
