Bulk Transfer Performance: Delivers line-rate performance with low CPU usage for
large application buffers
Virtualized Performance: Alleviates hypervisor I/O bottlenecks by providing flow
separation for Virtual Machines (VMs)
Network Virtualization: Network virtualization overlay offloads including Geneve,
VXLAN, and NVGRE
Storage Performance: Enables competitive performance with native OS drivers and
intelligent offload for NAS (NFS, SMB), and SAN (iSCSI and FCoE)
A Complete, Unified Networking Solution
Converging data and storage onto one fabric eliminates the need for multiple adapters,
cables, and switches. Furthermore both 10 and 40 gigabit Ethernet provides the bandwidth to
converge these multiple fabrics onto a single wire. A key capability that makes all this
possible is traffic class separation provided by Data Center Bridging (DCB)1—providing a
one-wire solution with virtual pipes for the different classes of traffic:
Data: Best effort delivery of standard L AN traffic
Storage: Losslessnetwork for FCoE and iSCSI
Management: Guaranteed connectivity of data center
IP management
One Adapter, One Price
With the Intel adapters, iSCSI and FCoE support are included in the price of an adapter.
There is no need to purchase multiple adapters or additional licensing for an XL710 adapter.
It’s simple and easy. Everything you need to unify your networking is included in a single SKU.
One adapter, one price.
Power Savings
Power efficiency is critical to IT specialists as energy consumption is a real OpEx concern.
Lowest Power Consumption: The new generation of XL710 adapters are power misers.
They deliver double the throughput with only half the power of the previous X520
