HP ProLiant BL660c Gen9 Server Blade
Technical Specifications
c04543743 - DA - 15185 Worldwide - Version 5 - September 28, 2015
Page 35
NOTE:
Each port is autosensing 1Gb/10Gb, and can interoperate with 1Gb or
10Gb HP BladeSystem c-Class interconnect components. Both ports will
operate at the same speed.
NOTE:
Each port on the 554FLB adapter transmits from the server at 20Gbps
(theoretical) full duplex.
