Benefits |
|
| Support
for open source NOSs |
|
Enables
high-density networking in server appliances and embedded applications |
|
| Intel®
SingleDriver™ technology |
|
Common
driver suite for Gigabit Ethernet reduces installation complexity |
|
| Backward
Compatibility with previous generations of Intel® PRO/1000 Network Adapters |
|
Reduces
support costs and simplifies installation and maintenance |
|
| Supports
64- or 32-bit PCI-X 1.0 or PCI 2.2 buses |
|
This
flexible, auto-sensing adapter works in a variety
of bus types |
|
| Remote
Management Support (WfM, RIS, SNMP/DMI) |
|
Reduces
support costs with remote management based on industry-wide standards |
|
| IEEE
802.3ab Compatibility |
|
Supports
Gigabit Ethernet industry-wide networking standard |
|
| Intel®
82545 Gigabit Controller |
|
Provides
high performance, reliability, and low power use in a single integrated
Gigabit Ethernet controller chip |
|
| Full-height
and low-profile, screw-on brackets included with each adapter |
|
Compatible
with full-height and low-profile PCI standard. Full-height bracket can be
easily swapped out and replaced by the shorter, low-profile bracket, for
installation in high-density 1U and 2U servers that feature low-profile
PCI |
|
| Interrupt
Moderation |
|
Delivers
increased performance while significantly reducing CPU utilization |
|
| Advanced
Cable Diagnostics |
|
Dynamically
tests and reports network problems (error rate, cable length) and automatically
compensates for cable issues (cross over cable, wrong pin-out/polarity) |
|
| Large
Send Off-load/TCP Segmentation Off-load |
|
Compatible
with Large Send Off-load feature of Microsoft Windows* Server 2003, 2000
and XP which enables wire speed performance with low CPU utilization |
|
| Expanded
Advanced Server Features |
|
Intel®
ANS software increases uptime with redundant, teamed connections and scales
bandwidth by balancing network traffic across multiple server connections.
Now offers Switch Fault Tolerance and Test Switch Configuration to test
compatibility and further increase uptime |
|
| Gigabit
speeds on Category-5 cable networks |
|
Able
to achieve Gigabit speeds on commonly deployed CAT-5 cabling without costly
cable replacement |
|
| Compatible
with Fast Ethernet |
|
Reduces
training costs and ramp rollout quickly |
|
| Auto-sensing,
self-configuring 10/100/1000 Mbps performance |
|
Enables
migration to faster networks easily and inexpensively—adapter will automatically
sense when the network is able to support a faster speed, and self-configure
to save IT staff time, money and server downtime |
