HP P26873-001 – HP BCM57412 10Gb 2-Port SFP+ OCP3 Adapter

Detailed Description:

The HP BCM57412 10Gb 2-Port SFP+ OCP3 Adapter, part number P26873-001, is a high-performance network interface card designed for use in HP ProLiant servers. This adapter uses Broadcom’s advanced 57412 chipset to deliver fast, reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections over fiber optic cables, using SFP+ transceivers. Designed to fit the Open Compute Project (OCP) form factor (version 3), this adapter offers a compact solution for server connectivity that aligns with the OCP’s objectives for efficiency, scalability, and openness in data center infrastructure. The two ports enable redundant connections for increased reliability or aggregated bandwidth for higher performance, supporting advanced networking features like VLAN tagging, offloads (checksum and TCP segmentation), and jumbo frames. The adapter is ideal for high-performance computing, virtualization, storage, and networking applications where high bandwidth and low latency are critical. It enables businesses to handle demanding workloads, increase data center efficiency, and reduce total cost of ownership by leveraging the latest in network technology and the OCP’s innovative design principles.
