Each of the 1 Gb RJ45 port provides Ethernet connectivity at a data rate of 1 Gbps. Each of the 1 Gb ports
is connected with a 4-pair, CAT-5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable or with a cable of higher
specification, and is supported for distances of up to 100 meters. In addition to 1 Gb (1000 Mb) networks,
100 Mb networks are also supported.
The adapter provides the following features:
• The adapter is a PCIe2 NIC network convergence adapter.
• The 10 Gb SR ports can function in the NIC mode.
• The adapter can be used as the host local area network (LAN) adapter.
• The adapter supports interrupt moderation to deliver increased performance while significantly
reducing processor utilization
• The adapter supports dual port operation in any PCIe4 or PCIe3 slot
• The adapter supports auto-negotiation, full-duplex only.
• The adapter supports multiple media-access control (MAC) per interface.
• The adapter supports integrated media-access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY).
• The adapter supports the following standards for the different ports and functions:
– IEEE 802.3ae in the 10 GbE ports
– 802.3ab in the 1 GbE ports
– Ether II and IEEE 802.3 for encapsulated frames
– 802.1p for setting up priority levels in tagged VLAN frames
– 802.1Q for VLAN tagging
– 802.3x for flow control
– 802.3ad for load-balancing and failover
– IEEE 802.3ad and 802.3 for link aggregation
• The adapter provides message signal interrupts (MSI), MSI-X, and support of legacy pin interrupts.
• The adapter supports jumbo frames up to 9.6 KB.
• The adapter supports gigabit EtherChannel (GEC) with the existing software.
• The adapter supports TCP checksum offload transmission control protocol (TCP), user datagram
protocol (UDP), TCP segmentation Offload (TSO) for IPv4 and IPv6.
• Supports TCP segmentation or large send offload
• Supports EEPROM-SPI and single EEPROM
