HPE P65741-B21 HPE ML30 GEN11 ILO/NIC/M.2/COM Port KIT

Overview

The HPE P65741-B21 is a port enablement kit designed to enhance the connectivity and management capabilities of HPE ProLiant ML30 Gen11 servers. This kit provides integrated iLO (Integrated Lights-Out) management, an additional network interface card (NIC), M.2 storage support, and a serial COM port, streamlining deployments that require advanced remote management, network segmentation, or direct-attached storage for boot devices. It's specifically for environments where the base server configuration lacks these integrated options, ensuring a cleaner build and dedicated resources for critical functions like OS booting or network traffic isolation.

Compatibility

This kit is engineered exclusively for the HPE ProLiant ML30 Gen11 server series. Ensure your server model is part of the ML30 Gen11 generation for guaranteed compatibility. It is not compatible with previous generations of HPE ProLiant servers or other server brands.

Installation Notes

Installation requires opening the server chassis and seating the kit's components onto the motherboard. Refer to the HPE ProLiant ML30 Gen11 server documentation for detailed installation procedures, including required tools and specific slot locations. Proper grounding and handling of components are critical to prevent electrostatic discharge damage.
