Chapter 1: Introduction
1.1 Product Introduction
This card is a Multi-Gigabit network adapter that’s runs on a high
speed PCIe x4 host bus interface.
This card hosts the Tehuti’s new 3
rd
generation TN4010 controller, and
optimized 10 Gigabit Ethernet MAC designed for low-power, low-cost,
single-port connectivity required by Application Servers and
Workstations. The TN4010 MAC is paired with Marvell® Alaska®
88X3310P transceiver, a low-power, high-performance 10 Gigabit
Ethernet PHY, to enable five-speed connectivity (10GBase-T,
5GBase-T 2.5GBase-T 1000Base-T, and 100Base-TX) over low-cost
standard CAT-6a Ethernet cabling, up to 100m (Cat-5e and CAT-6 are
supported compliant to Link Segment specifications). This
combination creates a new gateway to cost-conscious consumer
applications, as well as to intensive data environments.
