HPE:

“High-Performance Ethernet”. A layer two interface for writing Ethernet-based fieldbus applications. The design of the interface is to make the transmission of packets very precise in terms of the time at which the packets are actually transmitted.

See reference documentation http://support.tenasys.com/INtimeHelp/#ovw_hpe.html and sample application “High-Performance Ethernet sample” which shows the general interface characteristics. The Intel i210 adds a whole lot of additional features which are illustrated in the HPE3 Extra Features sample.
