Product Description
The Broadcom N210P is a dual-port 10GbE OCP 3.0 Small Form Factor Ethernet adapter built on the BCM57412 NetXtreme-E controller, designed for mainstream virtualized servers and hyperscale or enterprise racks that standardize on the OCP 3.0 form factor. Each of its two SFP+ ports operates at 10GbE over optical or direct-attach copper, connecting to the host over a PCIe 3rd Generation x8 interface. The adapter offloads RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCEv2) for low-latency storage and clustering traffic, and its TruFlow flow-processing engine accelerates virtual-switch (Open vSwitch) forwarding entirely in hardware, freeing host CPU cycles. A hardware Root-of-Trust anchors secure boot and firmware attestation, while SR-IOV and NIC Partitioning (NPAR) let the adapter be securely shared across many virtual machines or tenants. TruManage simplifies fleet-wide provisioning and monitoring across the data center.
