Dual-10Gb SFP+ PCI-E Network Card NIC, Mellanox ConnectX-3 PCI-e 3.0 X8 PCI Express 10 Gigabit Ethernet Server NIC (ST7286-10GB)

Description PCIe x8 Mellanox Connectx-3 Dual-Port 10G SFP+ adapter with PCI Express 3.0 deliver high-bandwidth and industry-leading Ethernet connectivity for performance-driven server and storage applications in Enterprise Data Centers, High-Performance Computing, and Embedded environments. Clustered databases, web infrastructure, and high frequency trading are just a few applications that will achieve significant throughput and latency improvements resulting in faster access, real-time response and more users per server. ConnectX-3 EN improves network performance by increasing available bandwidth while decreasing the associated transport load on the CPU especially in virtualized server environments. Specification PCI-Express host interface specification v 3.0 x8 and higher Complete with PCIe 2.0 and 1.1 Two 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports Low-profile form factor adapter with 2u bracket SR-IOV support; 16 virtual functions supported by KVM and Hyper-V (OS dependant )

up to a maximum 127 virtual functions supports by the adapter Enables low latency RDMA over Ethernet (supported with both non-virtualized and SR-IOV enable virtualized servers)\u2014latency as low as 1us TCP/UDP/IP stateless offload in hardware Traffic steering across multiple cores Intelligent interrupt coalescence Industry-leading throughput and latency performance Software compatible with standard TCP/UDP/IP stacks Legacy and UEFI PXE network boot support Supports iSCSI as a software iSCSI initiator in NIC mode w
