HPE StoreFabric CN1100R Converged Network Adapter

The CN1100R is a converged network adapter, meaning it consolidates Ethernet, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel traffic onto a single 10GbE interface. This allows you to run multiple types of network and storage traffic through the same physical connection.

Yes, the package includes both full-height and low-profile brackets. This ensures you can install the card in either standard rack-mount servers or smaller, space-constrained chassis.

While this unit is specifically tested and optimized for compatibility with HP ProLiant servers, it uses standard PCI Express x8 connectivity. However, for the most reliable performance and support, we recommend using it within the HPE ecosystem.

This adapter uses SFP+ expansion slots, which are designed for optical fiber connectivity. You will need to use compatible SFP+ transceivers and the appropriate fiber optic cables to match your switch infrastructure.

No, this specific model does not support Wake-on-LAN or Jumbo Frames. It is engineered primarily for high-performance, converged data center connectivity rather than desktop-style power management features.

By consolidating multiple network functions—Ethernet, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel—onto one card, you reduce the number of physical adapters and cables required. This consolidation lowers power consumption and cooling requirements, which directly impacts your overall energy costs.
