Intel Gigabit NIC 10GbE interfaces and supporting cables

The Intel Gigabit NIC PRO/10GB based Intel 82599ES chip design. The theoretical transfer rate is up to 10000Mbps. Supporting within 10km of network communication. For PCI Express 2.0, each channel is 5.0GT / s and totally 8-channel (ie, PCI-E X8), supporting for Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) and the slots adopt the XPAK optical technology. Its cost is 40% lower compared with the previous network cards, thus conducive to large-scale popularization and application. Mainstream of the 10 Gigabit network models represent: Intel Ethernet Server NIC X520-SR2: E10G42BFSR. Dual-port 10 Gigabit multi-mode fiber optic network cards with SFP+ interfaces.
Intel PRO/10GbELR NIC meets the IEEE802.3ae, 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard. The interface type of cable is LC, supporting 3/4/5 UTP access, and supporting remote wake-up function. There are PCI-E interfaces in the servers. With the Category 5 network environment, the PCI-E has a dedicated input / output (I / O) bandwidth to ensure that each port 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity priorities to performance and will not take up the bus. It also supports the message notification of msi function of interruption.
