Description
High-Performance for PCI E Adapter
The X520-SR1 is a high-performance network adapter that is designed to work with PCI Express 2.0 x8 expansion slots. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet, which allows it to transmit data at up to 10 billion bits per second. This is significantly faster than standard Gigabit Ethernet, which has a maximum data rate of 1 billion bits per second. The adapter uses fiber optic cables to transmit data, which can help to extend the maximum distance of the network connection and reduce the amount of electromagnetic interference.
The adapter is also designed for high-performance systems and servers. It can handle high network traffic and provide low latency and high throughput. Additionally, the adapter is built with advanced features like iSCSI offload, TCP/UDP/IP checksum offload, and Large Send and Receive Offload (LSO and LRO) to improve the performance of the network.
Resiliency and High Availability
The X520-SR1 Intel PCI Express 2.0 X8 Fiber Optic 10 GIGABIT Ethernet Network Adapter is a high-performance network adapter that is designed for resiliency and high availability. It supports multiple features that help to ensure that the network remains up and running even in the event of a failure.
One of the key features of the adapter is its support for redundant fiber connections. This means that if one fiber connection fails, the adapter can automatically switch over to the second connection, ensuring that network traffic continues to flow.
The adapter also supports link aggregation, which allows multiple network connections to be combined into a single, higher-bandwidth link. This can help to increase the overall throughput of the network and provide an additional level of redundancy.
Additionally, the adapter supports advanced error correction and data integrity checking, which helps to ensure that data is transmitted reliably and without errors.
Power and Innovation
The X520-SR1 Intel PCI Express 2.0 X8 Fiber Optic 10 GIGABIT Ethernet Network Adapter is designed to be both powerful and innovative.
In terms of power, the adapter supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) speeds, which is significantly faster than traditional Gigabit Ethernet (1 GbE) speeds. This allows for much higher data transfer rates, making it ideal for use in high-performance computing environments where large amounts of data need to be transferred quickly.
In terms of innovation, the adapter is built on Intel’s latest technologies. It supports PCI Express 2.0, which is a high-speed interface that provides more bandwidth than the previous generation, PCI Express 1.0. This allows the adapter to take full advantage of the increased speed of 10 GbE.
The adapter also supports advanced features such as Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI, which allow it to be used in storage area networks (SANs) and other specialized applications.
Additionally, the adapter supports Intel’s Virtualization Technology for Connectivity (VT-c) which enables the adapter to be used in virtualized environments, allowing multiple virtual machines to share a single physical adapter.
Overall, the X520-SR1 Intel PCI Express 2.0 X8 Fiber Optic 10 GIGABIT Ethernet Network Adapter is a powerful and innovative adapter that is well-suited for use in demanding network environments that require high-speed, low-latency data transfer.
