Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x) Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x) allows one hardware platform to function as multiple “virtual” platforms. It offers improved manageability by limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions. Intel® Data Direct I/O Technology Intel® Data Direct I/O Technology is a platform technology that improves I/O data processing efficiency for data delivery and data consumption from I/O devices. With Intel DDIO, Intel® Server Adapters and controllers talk directly to the processor cache without a detour via system memory, reducing latency, increasing system I/O bandwidth, and reducing power consumption. PCI-SIG* SR-IOV Capable Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) involves natively (directly) sharing a single I/O resource between multiple virtual machines. SR-IOV provides a mechanism by which a Single Root Function (for example a single Ethernet Port) can appear to be multiple separate physical devices. Intel® Ethernet Power Management Intel® Ethernet Power Management Technology provides solutions to common power management approaches by reducing idle power, reducing capacity and power as a function of demand, operating at maximum energy efficiency whenever possible, and enabling functionality only when needed. Fiber Channel over Ethernet Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is an encapsulation of Fibre Channel frames over Ethernet networks. This allows Fibre Channel to use 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks (or higher speeds) while preserving the Fibre Channel protocol. IEEE 1588 IEEE 1588, also knows as the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol used to synchronize clocks throughout a computer network. On a local area network it achieves clock accuracy in the sub-microsecond range, making it suitable for measurement and control systems. Flexible Port Partitioning Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP) technology utilizes industry standard PCI SIG SR-IOV to efficiently divide your physical Ethernet device into multiple virtual devices, providing Quality of Service by ensuring each process is assigned to a Virtual Function and is provided a fair share of the bandwidth. Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) is a technology designed to offload some of the switching done in the VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor) to networking hardware specifically designed for this function. VMDq drastically reduces overhead associated with I/O switching in the VMM which greatly improves throughput and overall system performance Features: - Commodity Classification Automated Tracking System (CCATS): NA - Export Control Classification Number (ECCN): 5A991 - Fiber Channel over Ethernet: No - Intelligent Offloads: Yes - Jumbo frames support: Yes - Launch date: Q4'15 - Lithography: 28 - On-board graphics card: No - On-chip QoS and Traffic Management: Yes - Package size: 25 x 25 - PCI-SIG* SR-IOV Capable: Yes - Product codename: Fortville - Product series: 700 Series Controllers (up to 40GbE) - Status: Launched - Storage Over Ethernet: iSCSI, NFS - Thermal Design Power (TDP): 7 Network: - Ethernet LAN data rates: 1000/10000/40000 - Network controller sideband interface (NC-SI): Yes Operational conditions: - Maximum operating temperature: 55 - Minimum operating temperature: 0 - Operating temperature (T-T): 0 - 55 Ports & interfaces: - Ethernet LAN (RJ-45) ports: 1 - Host interface: PCI Express - PCI Express slots version: 3.0 Processor special features: - Intel Data Direct I/O Technology: Yes - Intel Ethernet Power Management: Yes - Intel Flexible Port Partitioning: Yes - Intel Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq): Yes Vendor information: - Brand Name: Intel - Warranty: 1
