The 74Y1987 IBM 10GB PCIE2 X8 4 Port Ethernet Card is a network interface card designed by IBM. It is a high-performance network adapter that is designed to provide high-speed connectivity to networked devices. The card supports four Ethernet ports, each capable of delivering 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps) of network throughput. This makes it ideal for use in high-bandwidth environments where large amounts of data need to be transferred quickly and efficiently.
A Network Interface Card (NIC)A Network Interface Card (NIC) is a hardware component that connects a computer or other networked device to a network. The NIC serves as the interface between the computer and the network, enabling communication between the two. The NIC is responsible for transmitting and receiving data packets between the computer and the network, allowing the computer to access resources on the network and share resources with other devices on the network.
EthernetEthernet is a type of network protocol that is used to connect devices to a network. Ethernet is a wired protocol that uses twisted-pair cables to transmit data between devices. Ethernet is one of the most widely used network protocols in the world and is used in a wide range of applications, including local area networks (LANs), wide area networks (WANs), and the internet.
PCIE2PCIE2 is a type of expansion slot that is used to connect peripheral devices to a computer. PCIE2 is short for Peripheral Component Interconnect Express 2.0 and is the second generation of the PCI Express standard. PCIE2 offers faster data transfer rates than the original PCI Express standard, with a maximum transfer rate of 5 gigabytes per second (Gbps) per lane.
X8X8 refers to the number of lanes that are available on the PCIE2 slot. The number of lanes determines the maximum bandwidth that can be achieved through the slot. X8 means that there are eight lanes available on the slot, which allows for a maximum bandwidth of 40 Gbps.
The features of the 74Y1987 IBM 10GB PCIE2 X8 4 Port Ethernet CardThe 74Y1987 IBM 10GB PCIE2 X8 4 Port Ethernet Card is a high-performance network adapter that is designed to provide high-speed connectivity to networked devices. The card supports four Ethernet ports, each capable of delivering 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps) of network throughput. The card also features advanced networking technologies that help to optimize network performance and reduce latency.
Key FeatureThe following are some of the key features of the 74Y1987 IBM 10GB PCIE2 X8 4 Port Ethernet Card:
- High-speed connectivity: The card supports four Ethernet ports, each capable of delivering 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps) of network throughput. This makes it ideal for use in high-bandwidth environments where large amounts of data need to be transferred quickly and efficiently.
- Advanced networking technologies: The card features advanced networking technologies that help to optimize network performance and reduce latency. These technologies include TCP/IP offloading, which offloads the processing of TCP/IP packets from the CPU to the network adapter, and Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq), which optimizes network performance in virtualized environments.
- Low power consumption: The card is designed to consume low amounts of power, making it ideal for use in energy-efficient data centers and other environments where power consumption is a concern.
- Compatibility: The card is designed to be compatible with a wide range of operating systems, including Microsoft Windows, Linux, and VMware.
