Product Brief Intel PRO/10GbE SR Server Adapter ® Industry-leading 10 Gigabit Multi-mode Fiber Server Connection Cost-effective 10 Gigabit performance for distances up to 300 m Highly integrated PCI-X secondgeneration silicon for high performance Smaller form factor with XPAK Optical Transceiver fits in a standard server PCI or PCI-X slot The Intelligent Way to Connect The Intel® PRO/10GbE SR Server Adapter— the industry’s second-generation 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter—enables the fastest Ethernet connectivity available. The Intel PRO/10GbE SR Server Adapter delivers industry-leading performance to bandwidth-intensive applications using a highly integrated PCI-X Intel® 82597EX 133 MHz/64-bit 10GbE controller. High-speed server connectivity— once reserved for costly proprietary technologies such as high-performance computing clusters and grid-based computing—can now be achieved with the industry-standard Intel PRO/10GbE SR Server Adapter. Using the Intel PRO/10GbE SR Server Adapter, enterprises can cost-effectively deploy 10GbE to a broad range of servers using lower-cost multi-mode fiber optic cabling and switching infrastructure. The 10GbE SR standard enables 10GbE transmissions at distances up to 300 meters using standard multi-mode cabling. Features Benefits Intel 82597EX 10GbE PCI-X 133 MHz/64-bit MAC controller High performance on widely adopted 2nd-generation PCI hostbus interface Multi-mode fiber support through 850 nm optical module Cable lengths up to 300 meters; noise resistant for signal integrity IEEE 802.3ae* 10GBase-SR compliant Supports industry-wide 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard Jumbo Frames supported up to 16 KB Increase performance through reduced overhead TCP/IP segmentation and TCP checksum offload in RX and TX Provides efficiency for host processing 256 KB RX and 32 KB TX data FIFO Enhanced TX and RX logic with minimum buffer requirements Parity protection for RX FIFO buffer Data integrity ® The Intel PRO/10GbE SR Server Adapter helps improve network productivity and eliminate costly proprietary networking technologies, while enabling deployment of standards-compliant Ethernet connectivity based on IEEE 802.3ae* 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard.
