    Dell 9305-16e and use on non-dell server

    Does anyone have any experience with the Dell version of the 9305-16e card in a non Dell system? Will it work or is it tied to use in a Dell server? Do I need to flash it to an LSI 9305-16e firmware? I haven't been able to find any info online about it. Thanks

    Hi, I'd like to connect my HP switch as well. To be clear you are saying that the FTLX1471D3BCV-IT doesn't work correct? What is the model number of the SMF 1G transceivers that work? What HP switch model do you have? thanks, Brendin
