™
platform that delivers industry-
leading performance with a single-chip
architecture that fully supports network
convergence and Data Center Bridging (DCB)
standards for lossless Ethernet.
The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter
complements HP’s Converged Infrastructure
architecture. This open architecture uses industry
standards to converge storage, server, and network
resources and provide seamless interoperability
with existing data center core networks.

Optimized Network Connectivity
Lower cost
The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter
can save up to 30% on capital expenses by
reducing the number of adapter cards, switch
ports and cables needed to support network and
storage traffic.

Lower power and cooling
The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter
can reduce the number of adapter cards and
switches, resulting in significant savings for power
and cooling.
Consolidation with the latest Intel Xeon CPUs
The HP CN1000E Converged Network Adapter,
based on Emulex OneConnect Universal CNA
(UCNA) technology, was designed to leverage the
new features of Xeon processors beginning with
the 5500 series, including MSI-X, QPI, PCI-Express
2.0, HTT and VT-d which all enable more I/O per
CPU with protocol hardware offload technology.
