Intel X540 Chipset 10Gb Ethernet PCIe x8 Dual Port Network Card Brand Compatible X540-T2

LREC9802BT Intel X540 Chipset PCI-E Express x8 2 RJ-45 DUAL Port PCIE x8 Network Card Brand Compatible for X540-T2

Port Partitioning.

The LREC9812BT network card is the latest innovation in Intel’s leadership to drive 10 Gigabit Ethernet into the broader server  market. This card hosts Intel’s latest Ethernet silicon, the Intel® Ethernet Controller X540, which is used by many OEMs as a single chip solution for LAN on Motherboard (LOM) to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet(10 GbE) on the latest server platforms.

10GBASE-T Simplifies theTransition to 10 GbE

The LREC9812BT PCIE x8 Network Card Dual Port network card Brand  works with existing networks today. It works with legacy Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switches and Cat 6A cabling.

10G Performance at Low Cost and Low Power

The LREC9812BT PCIE x8 Network Card  is the lowest cost way to deploy 10 GbE in your data center today. The LREC9812BT Dual Port network card Brand uses low cost, Cat6 and Cat 6A cabling. Chances are this cabling already exists in the data center.

Exciting New data Center usage Models

More than simply a 10x increase in performance, with 10 GbE there are exciting new usage models that are now possible, including Unified Networking (iSCSI, FCoE and LAN), Virtualization (VMDq and SR- IOV), and now, Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP).

Flexible i/o Virtualization

The LREC9812BT PCIE x8 Network Card includes Intel® Virtualization Technology for connectivity (Intel VT-c) to deliver I/O virtualization and Quality of Service (QoS) features designed directly into the Intel X540 controller on the adapter. 

Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP)

By taking advantage of the PCI-SIG SR-IOV specification, Intel Ethernet products en- able FPP. With FPP, virtual controllers can be used by the Linux* host directly and/or assigned to virtual machines. .

Unified Networking

Unified Networking solutions on the LREC9812BT PCIE x8 Network Card Dual Port network card Brand  let you combine the traffic of multiple data center networks like LAN and SAN onto a single efficient network fabric. 

iSCSi Simplifies SAN Connectivity

iSCSI uses Ethernet to carry storage traffic, extending the familiarity and simplicity of Ethernet to storage networking, without the need for SAN-specific adapters or switches. LREC9812BT PCIE x8 Network Card Dual Port network card Brand  is the easiest, most reliable, and most cost-effective way of connecting servers to iSCSI SANs.

Open FCoE Consolidates LANs and Legacy SANs

Intel’s Open FCoE solution enables LREC9812BT PCIE x8 Network Card Dual Port network card Brand  (adapters and controllers) to support Fibre Channel payload encapsulated in Ethernet frames. There is no upgrade charge for Open FCoE on the adapter. Just as with iSCSI, now customers can easily connect to an FCoE network with Intel 10 GbE solutions.

Data Center Bridging (dCB) delivers Lossless Ethernet

Conventional Ethernet does not guar- antee successful data delivery, which is not acceptable for SAN traffic. Ethernet enhancements such as Data Center Bridging (DCB) overcome that limitation with technologies that guarantee lossless deliv- ery, congestion notification, priority-based flow control, and priority groups.
