Broadcom Corp NetXtreme II 57711E/NC532i 10 Gb Ethernet

[eric lai]

All my HP blades BL490c/G6 came with built-in Broadcom NetXtreme II 57711E/NC532i 10 Gb Ethernet device. I have checked all C7000 chassis compatible blade switches (ex. GbE2C , Cisco 3120x ...) and found none of them supports 10G downlink to BL460c. All blade switches only support 1Gb downlink speed to sixteen internal ports. If there is no infrastructure to support that 10Gb NC532i, what is the purpose of using it in BL460.
Please advise.
Thanks!!!

You can use the Inter connect modules that used 10 GB downlink ports such as Virtual Connect Flex10 or Flex Fabric, HP 6120 XG switch.

You can check their individual quick specs and purchase them as per your requirement.
