Built with the bridgeless Intel® Ethernet Controller I350, these adapters represent the next step in the Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) networking evolution for the enterprise and data center by introducing new levels of performance through industry-leading enhancements for both virtualized and iSCSI Unified Networking environments. This new family of adapters also includes new power management technologies such as Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and DMA Coalescing (DMAC).Flexible I/O Virtualization It includes Intel® Virtualization Technology for connectivity (Intel® VT-c) to deliver I/O virtualization and Quality of Service (QoS) features designed directly into the controller on the adapter. I/O virtualization advances network connectivity models used in today's servers to more efficient models by providing Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP), multiple Rx/Tx queues, and on- controller QoS functionality that can be used in both virtual and non-virtual server deployments.By taking advantage of the PCI-SIG SR-IOV specification, the adapter enables Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP). With FPP, virtual controllers can be used by the Linux* host directly and/or assigned to virtual machines. With this port partitioning, administrators can create up to eight dedicated connections on a single Ethernet port for use in bare metal and virtualized server deployments.In a bare-metal Linux server, host processes can be assigned to dedicated network resources to provide traffic isolation and balanced bandwidth allocation.In a virtualized environment, a VM can be assigned to a virtual controller to reduce the CPU overhead seen when using a software-based network bridge by offloading network traffic management to the controller.Scalable iSCSI Performance It with native iSCSI initiators built into Microsoft* Windows*, Linux* and VMware* ESX platforms provides a simple, dependable, cost-effective way to connect to iSCSI SANs. These native initiators are broadly tested using multiple generations of operating systems, storage systems, and OS tools to help ensure reliability and ease of use. Standardizing on Intel® Ethernet Adapters for iSCSI enables administrators to use a single initiator, TCP/IP stack, and a common set of management tools and IT policies. In addition, Intel® Ethernet Server Adapters include a number of hardware features designed to accelerate iSCSI traffic and enhance data processing. For example, TCP segmentation offload and checksum offload capabilities help reduce processor usage, increase throughput, and deliver exceptional iSCSI performance. Finally, using native OS initiators, it supports the CRC-32 digest instruction set included with Intel® Xeon® processor products, which improves transmission reliability and delivers an enterprise-class iSCSI solution.Power Management Technologies Today, companies everywhere are looking for ways to decrease energy consumption across the enterprise to reduce costs and environmental impact, while at the same time solving increasingly important power density challenges. That's why we has introduced new, advanced Power Management Technologies (PMTs) with the fiber nic that enable enterprises to configure power options on the adapter and more effectively manage their power consumption.Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) It supports the IEEE802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) standard so that, during periods of low network activity, EEE reduces the power consumption of an Ethernet connection by negotiating with a compliant EEE switch port to transition to a low power idle (LPI) state. This reduces the controller power to approximately 50% of its normal operating power, saving power on the network port and the switch port. As soon as increased network traffic is detected, the controller and the switch quickly come back to full power to handle the increased network traffic. EEE is supported for both 1000BASE-T and100BASE-TX.DMA Coalescing Another power management technology that can reduce power on the server platform is DMA Coalescing (DMAC). Typically, when a packet arrives at a server, DMA calls are made to transfer the packet within the server. These calls wake up the processor, memory and other system components from a lower power state in order to perform the tasks required to handle the incoming packet. Based on the configurable DMAC settings, incoming packets are buffered momentarily before any DMA calls are made. This enables the controller to intelligently identify opportunities to batch multiple packets together so that when components are wakened from lower power states they can efficiently handle the batched packets at the same time. This enables platform components to remain in lower power states longer, which can dramatically reduce platform energy consumption. DMAC synchronizes DMA calls across all controller ports to ensure maximum power savings.Software Tools and Management Advanced Network Services (ANS) include new teaming technologies and techniques such as Virtual Machine Load-Balancing (VMLB) for Hyper-V environments. Today, ANS includes a variety of teaming configurations for up to eight adapters, support for mixed vendors server adapters teaming and includes support for 802.1q VLANs, making ANS one of the most capable and comprehensive tools for supporting server adapter teaming. Additionally, Intel® PROSet for Windows* Device Manager and PROset CL extends driver functionality to provide additional reliability and Quality of Service features and configuration.General Features Intel® Ethernet Controller I350 With PCI Express* V2.1 (5 GT/s) Support Low-Profile and Standard height fullEthernet Features IEEE* 802.3 auto-negotiation 1Gb/s Ethernet IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab PHY specifications Compliant Integrated PHY for 10/100/1000 Mb/s for multispeed, full, and half-duplex IEEE 802.3x and 802.3z compliant flow control support with software-controllable Rx thresholds and Tx pause frames Automatic cross-over detection function (MDI/MDI-X) IEEE 1588 protocol and 802.1AS implementationPower Management and Efficiency <1W S0-Max (state) 1000BASE-T Active 90oC (mode) <400mW S0-Typ (state) 100BASE-T Active (mode) IEEE802.3az - Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) DMA Coalescing Smart Power Down (SPD) at S0 no link / Sx no link Active State Power Management (ASPM) Support LAN disable function Full wake up support Advanced Power Management (APM) Support (formerly Wake on LAN) Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) specification v2.0c Magic Packet* wake-up enable with unique MAC address ACPI register set and power down functionality supporting D0 and D3 states MAC Power Management controls Low Power Link Up - Link Speed Control Power Management Protocol Offload (Proxying) Latency Tolerance Reporting (LTR)I/O Virtualization Features Eight transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) queue pairs per port Flexible Port Partitioning: 32 Virtual Functions on Quad-port or 16 Virtual Functions on Dual-port Support for PCI-SIG SR-IOV specification Rx/Tx Round-Robin Scheduling Traffic Isolation Traffic Steering VM to VM Packet forwarding (Packet Loopback) MAC and VLAN anti-spoofing Malicious driver detection Storm control Per-pool statistics, offloads, and jumbo frames support Independent Function Level Reset (FLR) for Physical and Virtual Functions IEEE 802.1q Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) support with VLAN tag insertion, stripping and packet filtering for up to 4096 VLAN tags IEEE 802.1q advanced packet filtering Mirroring rules Support for Simple VEPA VF Promiscuous modesStateless Offloads/Performance Features TCP/UDP, IPv4 checksum offloads (Rx/ Tx/Large-send) Extended Tx descriptors for more offload capabilities IPv6 support for IP/TCP and IP/UDP receive checksum offload Tx TCP segmentation offload (IPv4, IPv6) Transmit Segmentation Offloading (TSO) Interrupt throttling control Legacy and Message Signal Interrupt (MSI) Modes Message Signal Interrupt Extension (MSI-X) Intelligent interrupt generation Receive Side Scaling (RSS) for Windows environment Scalable I/O for Linux environments (IPv4, IPv6, TCP/UDP Support for packets up to 9.5K Bytes (Jumbo Frames) Low Latency Interrupts Header/packet data split in receive PCIe v2.1 TLP Processing Hint Requester Descriptor ring management hardware for Transmit and ReceiveRemote Boot Options Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) flash interface support Intel® Ethernet iSCSI Remote Boot for Windows, Linux, and VMware Intel Boot Agent software: Linux boot via PXE or BOOTP, Windows* Deployment Services, or UEFIManageability Features Management Component Transport Protocol (MCTP) Firmware Based Thermal Management IEEE 802.3 MII Management Interface MAC/PHY Control and Status Watchdog timer Extended error reporting Controller Memory Protection Vital Product Data (VPD) SupportAdapter Product Features Plug and play specification support Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology (Intel® I/OAT) Ships with full-height bracket installed; low-profile bracket included in packageTechnical Features Data rate supported per port: 1000 Mbps Bus type: PCI Express* 2.1 (5 GT/s)) Bus width:4-lane PCI Express; operable in x4, x8 and x16 slots Interrupt levels: INTA, INTB, INTC, INTD, MSI, MSI-X Controller-processor: Intel Ethernet Controller I350AM4 Power consumption (typical): 6.0 W Storage temperature: -40°C to 70°C (-40°F to 158°F) Operating temperature: 0°C to 55°C (32°F to 131°F) Storage humidity: 90% non-condensing relative humidity at 35°C Network Operating Systems (NOS) Software Support DOS, Novell ODI Windows XP 32-bit (64-bit) Windows Server 2003 32-bit (64-bit) Windows Vista 32-bit (64-bit) Windows 7 32-bit (64-bit) Windows 8 32-bit (64-bit) Windows 8.1 32-bit (64-bit) Windows Server 2008 32-bit (64-bit) Windows Server 2008 R2 32-bit (64-bit) Windows Server 2012 Windows Server 2012 R2 Linux 2.4 series kernel、2.6.x、3.x FreeBSD 7.x or most of the FreeBSD UnixWare / Open Unix 8 Sun Solaris x86 Xen4 VMwarePS: Above details are only for reference, if there are any changes, no inform will have. url: http://www.dwdmsfp.net
