Meet the HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 537SFP+ OCP3 Adapter—a high-performance, CPU-friendly networking solution designed for demanding data centers and enterprise servers. Engineered to offload many I/O tasks from the host processor, this dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter delivers superb throughput with remarkably low latency, helping applications, virtual machines, and storage workloads run more smoothly. Its OCP3 form factor enables fast, space-saving deployment in supported HPE servers, offering a scalable, future-proof foundation for growing networks without compromising server resources.

  • Efficient CPU utilization—Built with an advanced offload engine that handles I/O processing inside the adapter, reducing interrupt load and freeing CPU cycles for applications, databases, and virtualization workloads.
  • Dual 10Gb SFP+ ports—Two high-performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports provide flexible, scalable bandwidth for virtualization, clustered databases, and high-traffic workloads. Ideal for NIC teaming, link aggregation, and separation of traffic streams.
  • OCP3 form factor—Compact, modular design that plugs into compatible OCP3 slots in HPE servers. This enables dense server configurations, simplified cabling, and streamlined maintenance within the data center.
  • Low latency, high throughput—Optimized for latency-sensitive applications with robust queue management and efficient interrupt handling, delivering consistent network performance under heavy load.
  • Broad compatibility and ease of management—Designed to work seamlessly with common operating systems and hypervisors used in enterprise environments, with straightforward driver installation and integration into standard server management workflows.

  • Network capabilities: 10 Gigabit Ethernet per port; supports standard Ethernet traffic with low-latency handling
  • Offload engine: Onboard I/O processing offloads common networking tasks from the host CPU to improve performance and efficiency
  • Compatibility: Broad OS and hypervisor support with drivers and firmware compatible with common enterprise environments
  • Optics and cabling: Requires compatible SFP+ optics or direct-attach cables; adapters support a variety of transceivers and DAC configurations
  • Management and integration: Integrates with standard server management tools and supports typical driver installation workflows for HPE servers
  • Power and efficiency: Designed for energy-conscious data center deployments with efficient operation in supported server configurations

How to install HPE Ethernet 10Gb 2-port 537SFP+ OCP3 Adapter

  • Prepare the server—Power down the server, unplug power cables, and ground yourself to prevent static discharge. Remove the server cover following the manufacturer’s safety guidelines.
  • Locate the OCP3 slot—Identify an available OCP3 mezzanine slot in the server that is compatible with the 537SFP+ adapter. Refer to the server’s hardware guide to verify slot compatibility.
  • Remove blanks—If a blank filler is present in the OCP3 slot, remove it to expose the connector for the new adapter.
  • Install the adapter—Carefully align the 537SFP+ OCP3 card with the slot and firmly seat it into place. Secure the card with the appropriate retention mechanism or screws as specified by the server chassis design.
  • Provide connectivity—Insert SFP+ optics or attach direct-attach copper cables to the two ports as required for your network topology. Ensure cabling is properly seated and secured.
  • Power on and install drivers—Power up the server. In the operating system, install the recommended drivers and firmware for the 537SFP+ adapter from the official HPE support repository. Update firmware if prompted to ensure optimal performance and compatibility.
  • Verify operation—Check the OS network configuration to confirm the NIC is detected. Validate link status on both ports and run basic network tests to verify throughput, latency, and offload functionality.
  • Configure as needed—Set up NIC teaming, VLANs, or SR-IOV/VMDq features if your workload requires them. Align driver settings with your virtualization platform and data-center policies.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What is the HPE 537SFP+ OCP3 Adapter used for? A: It delivers high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with an onboard offload engine to reduce CPU usage, making it ideal for virtualization, databases, and dense server deployments in HPE environments.

Comfortable, Easy to Clean, and Held Up at Coachella
Size: 12, Color: White, Size: 12, Color: White
I’m really happy with this purchase. The shoes are very comfortable, and the product description is accurate. I followed the sizing recommendation based on my foot type and went one size up—they fit perfectly. I bought these for Coachella, and they definitely held up. I was on my feet all day, and they stayed comfortable the entire time. What impressed me most is how easy they were to keep clean. At the end of each day, I was able to wipe them down and maintain their whiteness without much effort. Once I got home, I gave them a deeper clean, and they honestly looked as good as new. Even the laces cleaned up easily. Now I’ve transitioned them into my regular work shoes, and they still look great. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase and would definitely recommend them.

Great shoes that are well made, lite weight, and comfortable.
Size: 12, Color: Brown
Just received my 2nd pair of shoes from Bruno Marc in a size 12. These are really lite and comfortable. It can be dressed down to be a casual shoe or dressed up with a nice suit. These run true to size so I ordered my usual size 12 and the fit was perfect. Being my 2nd pair of Bruno Marc's, I like the quality of their shoes and each shoe is described appropriately on fit and comfort. Insole of these shoes were awesome and provided soft comfort on the feet along with a slight arch support too. Will definitely consider ordering more Bruno Marc shoes in the future.

Cushioned, comfortable, stylish and a rubber sole!
Size: 10, Color: Brown
These shoes check multiple boxes for me, comfortable, cushioned, rubber sole and stylish. As my feet grow old and worn out, I'm on a constant search for comfortable, cushioned shoes that are suitable for work and dressier occasions. I have tried many expensive shoes that look great but either lack cushioning, arch support and or comfort. One of the nice things is these shoes have a rubber sole, where most cushioned shoes have the foam soles which are great, but they tend to lack grip particularly when its damp/wet. They have average arch support, but the insole is removable and I put my own cushioned arch support. Love these!

OG Style
I am a big fan of Bruno Marc shoes. Over the years they have provided comfortable and affordable boots and shoes. These blue, tan and white soled dress sneakers are no exception. They have a nice finished look that makes them both causal and dressy. The lightweight style is still warm enough for colder mid-west winters. The box of the toes is wide and comfortable. The insole is well padded and a pleasure to wear. This is another fine pair of shoes to add to my collection and yours.

Must buy: Comfort + Casual + Well Made / Ventilated
Size: 8, Color: Brown
Just buy it! I have put in roughly 15,000 steps in this shoes in 10 days and I can't believe how comfortable they are after this much rough use in short amount of time. I highly recommend this shoes to anyone looking for comfort in casual style.
