The HPE Ethernet 10/25Gb 2-port SFP28 BCM57414 OCP3 Adapter (P10115-B21) is a specialized OCP 3.0 form-factor network adapter engineered for ProLiant Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers. Powered by the Broadcom NetXtreme-E BCM57414 controller, it occupies a dedicated OCP slot, preserving valuable standard PCIe slots for storage controllers or GPUs. It supports 25GbE and 10GbE speeds, RoCE v2 RDMA, and overlay network offloads (VXLAN, Geneve). Used buyers should inspect the OCP connector edge card and ensure the ejector latch mechanism is undamaged.

About the P10115-B21
P10115-B21 is HPE's dual-port 10/25GbE SFP28 OCP 3.0 mezzanine adapter based on the Broadcom BCM57414 NetXtreme-E silicon. Engineered specifically for ProLiant Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers, it installs directly into dedicated OCP 3.0 slots, saving PCIe risers while delivering full line-rate 25Gb/s bandwidth, RoCE v2 RDMA, and advanced network offloads.
Compatibility
Compatible with HPE ProLiant Gen10 Plus and Gen11 servers equipped with OCP 3.0 slots, including DL380 Gen10 Plus, DL380 Gen11, DL360 Gen10 Plus, and DL360 Gen11. Connects to HPE Aruba CX 8325 and CX 8360 switches, supporting iSCSI and NVMe/TCP storage traffic to HPE Alletra Storage MP and Alletra 6000 arrays.
How to identify a genuine unit
The adapter features an OCP 3.0 small form factor PCB with two SFP28 ports and an ejector handle. The HPE barcode label indicates option part number P10115-B21, spare part number P10761-001, and assembly number P10112-001. Identifies under HPE vendor ID 103C in system inventory.
Buying used
Inspect the gold OCP edge fingers for scratches, pitting, or chipped traces. Check that the metal ejector latch operates smoothly without jamming. Verify in HPE iLO that the card is recognized in the OCP slot, links up at full 25GbE speed, and passes onboard diagnostic self-tests.

Works together
How the HPE P10115-B21 connects to servers, storage and the network: 3 ways, with the hardware on each path.
iSCSI and NVMe/TCP over Ethernet
Keep the speed the same at all three points: a 25GbE server, a 25GbE switch port and a 25GbE array port. Mixed speeds work but the slowest link sets the pace.
