## Summary description

The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port BASE-T X550-AT2 is a high-performance internal network adapter designed for wired connectivity. It features a PCI Express host interface and supports a maximum data transfer rate of 20000 Mbit/s, making it ideal for data-intensive applications. With two ports, it allows for efficient network management and redundancy, ensuring reliable performance in enterprise environments.

## Long description

The HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 562 Adapter provides a cost- and power-efficient path to 10G data center networking. It delivers high throughput and low latency for server Ethernet traffic while minimizing CPU overhead by offloading I/O packet processing to the adapter. The card is suitable for environments with large volumes of small-packet traffic such as telco/NFV, high-performance computing (HPC), and e‑commerce, where bypassing host OS kernel processing improves packet handling.
Advantages
The adapter reduces CPU utilization through hardware offloads including VXLAN and NVGRE tunnel offloads and supports DPDK to accelerate packet processing for increased I/O throughput. It supports SR-IOV to improve virtual network performance and lower CPU load, and offers backward compatibility to simplify upgrades from 1GBASE-T to 10GBASE-T.
Key specifications
 Ports: 2 x 10Gb Ethernet
 Offloads: VXLAN and NVGRE tunnel offloads
 Acceleration: DPDK support for data plane packet processing
 Virtualization: SR-IOV support
 Compatibility: Backward compatible with 1GBASE-T to enable seamless upgrade to 10GBASE-T
How to use
Install the adapter into a compatible server PCIe slot following the server and HPE installation guides. Configure network settings and enable supported offloads (VXLAN/NVGRE) and SR-IOV in the host operating system or hypervisor as required. For best small‑packet performance, enable DPDK-based packet processing in applications or middleware that support it and validate network and driver settings after installation.
Recommendations
Use this adapter in data center and virtualized environments that require higher throughput and lower CPU overhead. Ensure firmware and drivers are updated to the latest HPE releases and verify compatibility with your server platform and operating system before deployment.
