Datacenter networks are being pushed to their limits. The escalating deployments of servers with multi-core processors and demanding applications such as High Performance Computing (HPC), database clusters, and video-on-demand are driving the need for 10 Gigabit connections. Customers require flexible and scalable I\/O solutions to meet the rigorous requirements of running mission-critical applications in virtualized and unified storage environments. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e10 Gigabit for the Broad Market \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 is the latest innovation in Intel's leadership to drive 10 Gigabit Ethernet into the broader server market. This adapter hosts Intel's latest Ethernet silicon, the Intel Ethernet Controller X540, which is used by many OEMs as a single chip solution for LAN on Motherboard (LOM) to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet(10 GbE) on the latest server platforms\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e10G BASE-T Simplifies the Transition\nto 10 GbE \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 10GBase-T works with existing networks today. It works with legacy Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switches and Cat 6A cabling. Install the NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 10GBase-T adapter into a server and the auto-negotiation between 1 GbE and 10GbE provides the necessary backwards compatibility that most customers require for a smooth transition and easy migration to 10 GbE. When time and budget allows, 10GBASE-T switches can be added any time to experience the full benefits of 10GbE.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10GBASE-T uses the copper twisted pair cables that are very familiar to IT professionals today. It is everything you know and love about 1000BASE-T. The knowledge, training and investment in BASE-T are preserved. 10GBASE-T is the easiest and most versatile 10 GbE and you can deploy it anywhere in your data center. Its flexible reach from 1 meter to 100 meters supports the latest network architectures including Top of Rack (ToR), Middle of Row (MoR), and End of Row (EoR).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e10G Performance at Low Cost and Low\nPower \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 10GBase-T adapter is the lowest cost way to deploy 10 GbE in your data center today. The NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 uses low-cost, Cat 6 and Cat 6A cabling. Chances are this cabling already exists in the data center.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA way for Intel to reduce cost and power is to integrate components into a single-chip solution. Of course, integration is what Intel does best. With the new Intel X540 Controller, the MAC and the PHY are integrated into a single-chip solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, why is integration important?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, integration translates to lower power. A single-chip solution simply uses less power than two separate components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis means no more active heat sink and reduces the per-port power consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond, integration also means lower cost per port. Manufacturing a single part costs less than two. When cabling is accounted for, cost efficiencies realized from a single part mean 10GBASE-T is the lowest cost media to deploy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith lower cost and power, 10GBASE-T is ready for broad deployment. 10GBASE-T is an option for every rack and tower server in the data center. The wait for a low-cost 10 GbE copper solution to broadly deploy 10 GbE to all corners of the data center is over. The NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 10GBase-T adapter provides bandwidth-intensive applications with highly affordable 10 GbE network performance and cost-effective RJ-45 connectivity for distances up to 100 meters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003eExciting New data Center usage Models \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore than simply a 10x increase in performance, with 10GbE there are exciting new usage models that are now possible, including Unified Networking (iSCSI, FCoE and LAN), Virtualization (VMDq and SR- IOV), and now, Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003eFlexible I\/O Virtualization \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVirtualization changes the way server resources are deployed and managed by running multiple applications and operating systems independently on a single server.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 10GBase-T adapter includes Intel Virtualization Technology for connectivity (Intel VT-c) to deliver I\/O virtualization and Quality of Service (QoS) features designed directly into the Intel X540 controller on the adapter. Intel I\/O virtualization advances network connectivity models used in today's servers to more efficient models by providing FPP, multiple Rx\/Tx queues, and on-controller QoS functionality that can be used in both virtual and non-virtual server deployments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003eFlexible Port Partitioning (FPP) \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePCIe v2.0 (5GT\/s) support enables customers to take full advantage of 10 GbE by providing a maximum of 20Gbps bi-directional throughput per port on a single dual-port card. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-content-type=\"heading\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003eUnified Networking \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"text\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnified Networking solutions on the NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 10GBase-T adapter let you combine the traffic of multiple data center networks like LAN and SAN onto a single efficient network fabric. You now have the choice of NFS, iSCSI, or Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) to carry both network and storage traffic at speeds of up to 10 Gbps. The NICPCIE-10G-2RJ45 10GBase-T adapter combines support for all of these traffic types in one adapter at no additional cost and with no additional licensing fees for the adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntel's Unified Networking solutions are enabled through a combination of standard Intel Ethernet products along with trusted network protocols integrated into the operating systems.
