  • RoHS and WEEE certified for environmental compliance
  • Two optical-fiber ports for high-speed networking

530FLR 10GbE Dual-Port Adapter

The HPE 530FLR is a dual-port 10GbE network card built for rack servers that accept a FlexibleLOM module. It connects through a PCI Express 2.0 x8 host interface and presents two SFP+ cages for optical fibre transceivers. The module suits administrators adding 10GBase-X connectivity to compatible HPE server platforms without consuming a standard expansion slot.

FlexibleLOM Form Factor Integration

Because the card uses the proprietary FlexibleLOM form factor, it installs directly into the dedicated mezzanine bay on supported rack servers. This leaves regular PCIe slots free for other accelerators or storage controllers. The board requires two SFP+ transceiver modules and matching optical fibre cabling, which are not included, to complete the 10GBase-X links.

Low-Profile Thermal Envelope

The single-slot FlexibleLOM design relies on the server's internal airflow for cooling, adding minimal acoustic load to the chassis. Power draw is supplied through the mezzanine connector, so no auxiliary power cables are needed. RoHS and WEEE certifications confirm compliance with hazardous-substance and recycling directives for data-centre deployments.

Questions about this item

What sustained-throughput limit appears first on the 530FLR 10GbE module when it runs continuously?

The PCI Express 2.0 x8 host interface caps sustained throughput before the dual 10GBase-X ports can saturate.

How much noise and heat does the 530FLR add when it runs all day in a rack server?

The card has no onboard fan; it relies on the server chassis airflow, so added noise is negligible and heat stays within the FlexibleLOM thermal envelope.

Which SFP+ transceivers and cables must I already own for the 530FLR to work?

You need two 10GBase-X compatible SFP+ optics or direct-attach cables; the module ships without any transceivers installed.
