The HPE Synergy 10Gb Interconnect Link Module is also known as the 10G satellite module. The interconnect module has a 120Gb CXP Interconnect Link port connector on the front (shown). On the rear of the interconnect module, there are twelve 10Gb Downlink ports (not shown).

Downlink ports

  • Twelve 10Gb Ethernet internal downlinks to compute module CNAs.

  • Support for HPE Synergy 10Gb and 20Gb CNA mezzanines.

  • If the satellite module is connected to HPE Virtual Connect SE 40GB F8 Module:

    • Each downlink supports up to 3 FlexNICs and 1 FlexHBA or 4 FlexNICs.

    • Each FlexNIC and FlexHBA is recognized by the compute module as a PCIe “Physical Function” device with adjustable speeds from 100 Mb to 10 Gb in 100 Mb increments.

    • Each FlexHBA can be configured to transport either Fiber Channel over Ethernet/CEE or Accelerated iSCSI protocol.

  • If the satellite module is connected to an HPE Synergy 40Gb F8 Switch Module:

    • Each downlink supports one Ethernet port to the adapter.

    • CNA can be configured to transport Fiber Channel over Ethernet/CEE.
