Abstract
An open compute project (OCP) adapter card and a computer device are disclosed. The adapter card includes an OCP connector, a controller, a selector, and a motherboard connector. The OCP connector is configured to connect to an OCP network interface card (NIC). The controller is configured for bandwidth allocation, in-situ control and power-on/off control of the OCP NIC. The selector gates a single-homed host or a dual-homed host based on working mode configuration information stored in the controller. The motherboard connector is configured to connect to a motherboard device.
