Fiber Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-SX: Independent giber Gigabit ethernet channels support Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-SX •Small Form Factor (SFF) LC connectors Host Interface standard support PCI-Express base specification Revision 1.1. •High performance great reliability and low power use in Intel 82576 Dual integrated MAC + PHY and SERDES chip Controllers •Ultra deep packet buffer per channel lowers CPU utilization avoids PCI-Express congestion •Hardware acceleration that can offload tasks from the host processor. The Controllers can offload TCP/UDP/IP checksum calculations and TCP segmentation •Server class reliability availability and performance features: •Link Aggregation and Load Balancing: • Switch dependent: 802.3ad (LACP) Generic Trunking ( GEC / FEC) • Switch and NIC Independent • Priority queuing – 802.1p layer 2 priority encoding •Virtual LANs –802.1q VLAN tagging •umbo Frame (9.5KB) •802.x flow control •LEDs indicators for link/Activity/Speed status •PCI Express Card Type: X1 Lane •Controller: Intel 82576EB
