SGI® 10 Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter

Superior Performance

SGI 10 Gigabit Ethernet is the ideal solution to increase bandwidth and allow greater data throughput. Up to 10 times faster than Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet leverages existing protocols and jumbo frames to provide performance unattainable with a single Gigabit Ethernet adapter.

Standards Based

SGI 10 Gigabit Ethernet is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard and is also compliant with PCI-X 1.0a specification, compatible with 64-bit, 133MHz and 100MHz busses. Using standard Multi-Mode fiber operating distances can reach up to 300m.

Broad Product Support

With support for both Linux® and SGI® IRIX® operating systems, SGI 10 Gigabit Ethernet is available for the platform and application that you choose, High Performance Computing, Visualization or Storage.

  • 64MB of on-board memory dramatically reduces performance degrading link-layer flow control
  • Standard 64-bit Linux® and SGI® IRIX® Operating System Support
  • ECC (SEC/DED) data and control structure protection throughout the entire adapter as well as state machine protection
  • 16 DMA engines, Interrupt Coalescing and Adaptive Interrupt Coalescing
  • True Quality of Service (QoS) support for up to 8 levels, allowing traffic to be classified, prioritized and queued at line rate (Linux OS)
