How many ports are available on the HPE 843QSFP28 ConnectX-4 adapter?

This adapter is defined as a dual port 100GbE QSFP28 ConnectX-4 adapter. Dual port indicates that it provides two network ports on a single card. Both ports use the QSFP28 form factor and are specified for 100GbE operation, allowing either redundant connections or aggregate bandwidth from a single PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot.

Which host interface does the HPE P06842-001 network adapter use?

The HPE P06842-001 is categorized as a PCI Express 3.0 x16 network adapter. This means it is designed to be installed in a PCI Express 3.0 x16 expansion slot in a compatible server. Using PCI Express 3.0 x16 provides a standardized physical and electrical interface to host platforms.

What connector type is used for the 100GbE ports on this adapter?

: "The adapter’s ports are described as dual port 100GbE QSFP28. QSFP28 is the specified interface type for its two 100GbE-capable connectors. This allows the use of 100GbE cabling and optical modules that conform to the QSFP28 standard when connecting to switches or other network equipment.

Is the HPE 843QSFP28 adapter suitable for use in data center servers?

The adapter is identified as a PCI Express 3.0 x16 network adapter with dual 100GbE QSFP28 ports. These characteristics align with typical data center server requirements where PCIe 3.0 x16 slots are available and 100GbE QSFP28 connectivity is deployed. Suitability still depends on each server’s mechanical and compatibility guidelines.
