Does BL460c G7's Integrated NC553i support Ethernet Pass-Through Module for HP BladeSystem

[chuckk281]

Shawn was looking for confirmation:

****************

Understand that under Product Bulletin listed under support interconnect for NC553m, it does not list 406740-B21, 1GbE Pass-Thru as a supported interconnect as it does not list it under below:

·         HP 6120XG Blade Switch

·         HP 6120G/XG Blade Switch

·         HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch

·         HP 1:10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch

·         Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP c-Class BladeSystem

·         Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3120X/G for HP c-Class BladeSystem

·         HP 10GbE Pass-Thru Module

·         HP Virtual Connect Flex-10 10Gb Ethernet Module

·         HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric 10Gb/24-port Module

·         HP Virtual Connect 1/10Gb Ethernet Module

·         HP Virtual Connect 1/10Gb-F Ethernet Module

Therefore seek to double confirm if it makes any difference if it’s a NC553i (integrated) instead.
