Intel’s family of Intel® Ethernet X520 Server Adapters with SFP+
connectivity are the most flexible and scalable Ethernet adapters
for today’s demanding data center environments. The escalating
deployments of servers with multi-core processors and demanding
applications such as High Performance Computing (HPC), database
clusters, and video-on-demand are the types of applications driv-
ing the need for 10 Gigabit connections. Customers require flexible
and scalable I/O solutions to meet the rigorous requirements of
running mission-critical applications in virtualized and unified
storage environments.
Powered by Intel’s third-generation 10 GbE network controller,
the Intel® Ethernet 82599 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller, the
X520 server adapter family addresses the demanding needs
of the next-generation data center by providing unmatched
features for virtualization, flexibility for LAN and SAN
networking, and proven, reliable performance.
To ensure maximum flexibility, Intel supports the ability to mix
any combination of the SFP+ optical modules, direct attach
copper cables, or 1000BASE-T SFP modules on the Intel Ethernet
X520 Adapters . For instance, customers can remove the optical
modules that come installed on the adapter and replace them
with an Intel® Ethernet SFP+ Optic, an SFP+ Direct Attach Copper
Cable, or a 1000BASE-T SFP module. Intel® Ethernet SFP+ Optics
are available in both short range (SR) 850 nm and long range (LR)
1310 nm options.
This enables customers to create the configuration that best
meets the needs of their data center environment.
