ProLiant Gen8 1000SX NIC option?

$

Hi,

 

I have a customer who requires a 1000Base-SX connection for his ProLiant DL380p Gen8 server to connect to a legacy infrastructure.

 

With prior ProLiant generations the NC373F adapter was available for 1Gb/s Ethernet connections using fibre optics, but that adapter doesn't seem to be supported on Gen8 servers (according to QuickSpecs and supported options matrix).

 

I couldn't find any other options to provide the server with the required connection. Did I miss something or is there no way to get 1000-SX on a ProLiant Gen8 Rackserver?

 

 

It's very important that the server in its entire configuration is fully supported by HP, so a third party adapter is not a viable solution and a media converter will have to be the last resort.

 

 

Any thoughts or experience (i.e. with NC373F on gen8 servers) would be much appreciated.
