Broadcom® 5780 0S 10 GBAS E- T Rac k C onverged Network Daughter Card Third-party information brought to you courtesy of Dell®. DUAL-PORT 1GbE (1000BASE-T) AND DUAL-PORT 10GbE (10GBASE-T) NETWORK DAUGHTER CARD FOR DELL® PowerEdge® 12G RACK SERVERS Highlights • Delivers full line-rate 10GbE performance across both 10Gb/s ports. • Provides 1GbE and 10GbE connectivity option for greater deployment flexibility. • Consolidates network traffic and storage traffic over a converged 10GbE connections. • Enables provisioning of 10GbE ports for greater deployment flexibility through Switch Independent Partitioning. • Boosts host CPU efficiency with hardware offload for network (TCP/IP) and storage (FCoE/ iSCSI) data traffic. • Streamlines administrative tasks: Broadcom Advanced Control Suite (BACS) management application and integration into Dell's embedded management framework (iDRAC7 and Lifecycle Controller). • Improves reliability and interoperability—leverages Broadcom's market-proven Ethernet architecture and software. • Interoperable with 100 Mbps, 1000 Mbps and 10 Gbps. 57800S Service Provider Data Centers Supported Enterprise Best Choice Overview Broadcom® now offers a quad-port Network Daughter Card (NDC), with two 1 Gigabit (GbE) and two 10 Gigabit (10GbE) Ethernet connectivity ports for Dell® PowerEdge® 12G rack servers. It leverages Broadcom's long-standing industry leadership in Ethernet, providing the highest level of performance, efficiency, and scalability for the enterprise data center. For more effective utilization of the 10GbE bandwidth, the Broadcom 57800-based rack NDC offers Switch Independent Partitioning which enables the segmentation of each 10GbE port into two virtual ports, with flexible allocation of bandwidth to each port. This allows IT organizations to improve resource utilization while lowering infrastructure and operational costs. Virtualization, cloud computing, HighPerformance Computing (HPC), convergence, and clustering initiatives are increasing workload demands. The Broadcom 57800S-based rack NDC is the solution of choice for workload-intensive computing environments, providing a reliable, highperformance 10GbE connectivity solution.
