What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against J1497A specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
Interface modules counted
The per-server modules are quoted with the switch, since they are the part that is always forgotten.
No substitutions without asking
If we cannot supply the exact code we tell you what we can supply and why, rather than shipping an equivalent and letting you find out.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is J1497A genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in HP packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will J1497A work in my server?
Send us the server model or service tag and we will confirm before you order. Part numbers alone do not always settle it: firmware revision and platform generation matter, and this is the check that prevents a return.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes. We quote against a purchase order and hold the price for the quote period, with tiered rates at quantity. Net terms are available once the account is approved.
