Intel 10 Gigabit CX4 Dual Port Server Adapter Drivers

Date Added: Feb 2009 / Publisher: Intel

10 Gigabit performance at the lowest cost per port
Adding to a robust family of 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapters, Intel is now offering the Intel® 10 Gigabit CX4 Dual Port Server Adapter. Following the 802.ak specification, the Intel 10 Gigabit CX4 Dual Port Server Adapter offers the lowest cost per port of all the current 10GbE interconnects. The low-profile PCI Expressform factor combined with two CX4 ports and a low-power envelope for energy efficiency, makes the board ideal for slot-constrained environments. 10GBASE-CX4 adapters are well-suited for customers with shorter distance and low latency requirements.

Intel® 82598EB 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller
Industry-leading, energy-efficient design for next-generation 10 Gigabit performance and multi-core processors

Low profile
Enables higher bandwidth and throughput from standard and low-profile PCIe slots and servers

Load balancing on multiple CPUs
Increases performance on multi-processor systems by efficiently balancing network loads across CPU cores when used with Receive-Side Scaling from Microsoft or Scalable I/O on Linux

Intel® I/OAT2
Accelerates I/O with higher throughput and lower CPU utilization by offloading processing overhead

iSCSI remote boot support
Provides centralized storage area network (SAN) management at a lower cost than competing iSCSI solutions

MSI-X support
Minimizes the overhead of interrupts
Allows load balancing of interrupt handling between multiple cores/CPUs

Virtual Machine Device queues (VMDq)
Allows the efficient routing of packets to the correct target machine in a virtualized environment using multiple hardware queues
Ensures transmit fairness and prevents head-of-line blocking

Low latency
Ability to toggle between the interrupt aggregation and non-aggregation mode based on the type of data being transferred

Optimized queues: 32 Transmit (Tx) and 64 Receive (Rx) per port
Network packet handling without waiting or buffer overflow
Efficient packet prioritization

Compatible with x8, and x16 standard and low-profile PCI Expressslots
Allows each PCI Express slot port to operate without interfering with the other

Support for most Network Operating Systems (NOS)
Enables widespread deployment
Supports up to 100m with Intel® Connects Cable

CX4 connections over 8 pair, 100 Ohm, Twinaxial cabling
Ensures compatibility with cable lengths up to 15m
Supports up to 100m with Intel® Connects Cable

RoHS-compliant
Compliant with the European Union directive 2002/95/EC to reduce the use of hazardous materials

Intel® PROSet Utility for Microsoft Windows Device Manager
Provides point-and-click power over individual adapters, advanced adapter features, connection teaming, and virtual local area network (VLAN) configuration

Intel backing
Backed by an Intel® limited lifetime warranty, 90-day money-back guarantee (U.S. and Canada), and worldwide support
