Overview
Simplify and make your data center change-ready. The HP Virtual Connect Flex-10/10D Module for the c-Class BladeSystem is the
simplest, most flexible connection to your networks. The Virtual Connect Flex-10/10D Module is a new class of blade interconnect that
simplifies server connections by cleanly separating the server enclosure from LAN, simplifies networks by reducing cables without
adding switches to manage, allows you to change servers in just minutes, not days, and tailors network connections and speeds based
on application needs. HP Flex-10 technology significantly reduces infrastructure costs by increasing the number of NICs per connection
without adding extra blade I/O modules, and reducing cabling uplinks to the data center network. The HP Virtual Connect Flex-10/10D
Module for c-Class BladeSystem is an innovative, new class of integrated interconnects from HP.
