Product Description

The IBM 2-Ports 10GbE PCIe 2.0 x8 RoCE SR SFP+ Network Adapter provides dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports for high-speed network connections. It is designed to deliver low-latency data transfer capabilities using the RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) protocol, suitable for demanding enterprise and data center applications. This adapter fits into standard PCI Express 2.0 x8 slots, allowing integration into a range of server platforms that support this interface.

This network adapter is typically used in environments requiring fast data throughput and efficient network communication, such as virtualization setups, storage networking, and high-performance computing clusters. IT professionals managing servers and data centers will find value in its ability to enhance networking responsiveness and throughput.

Key Features
  • Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports using SFP+ connectors
  • PCI Express 2.0 x8 interface for server connectivity
  • Supports RoCE for efficient low-latency communication
  • Designed for SR (Short Range) optics compatibility
  • Optimized for enterprise networking and data center environments

This adapter plays a key role in enabling efficient server-to-server and server-to-storage communication where reduced latency and increased network bandwidth are critical. Its support for RoCE makes it suitable for workloads that benefit from direct memory access over Ethernet fabrics without CPU intervention.


Use Cases

This IBM network adapter is typically deployed in data centers and enterprise server environments where high-throughput and low-latency networking is required. It benefits use cases involving virtualization, storage networking, and applications needing efficient RDMA capabilities.

How It's Used:
  • Connecting servers within a data center using 10GbE SFP+ fiber links.
  • Enabling RDMA over Converged Ethernet for low-latency application workloads.
  • Supporting storage area networks (SANs) requiring fast data access.
  • Integrating into virtualization environments to improve network performance.
  • Facilitating high-performance computing clusters with fast inter-node communication.

In operation, the adapter enhances network throughput and reduces CPU overhead by offloading network processing tasks. Its compatibility with PCIe 2.0 x8 slots ensures broad server support while maintaining efficient data center networking standards.


FAQ's

  • What type of interface does the 00E1599 adapter use?

    The 00E1599 adapter uses a PCI Express 2.0 x8 interface for installation in compatible server systems, providing sufficient bandwidth for dual 10GbE ports.

  • Which network protocol does this IBM adapter support?

    This adapter supports RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE), enabling low-latency communication over the network with reduced CPU load.

  • What kind of connectors are on the 00E1599 network adapter?

    The adapter features two SFP+ ports designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, typically using fiber optic cables with SR (short range) optics.

  • Is the 00E1599 suitable for long-distance fiber connections?

    The 00E1599 is specified for short-range (SR) applications, which means it is designed for connections typically within data center environments rather than long-distance fiber runs.

  • What environments benefit most from using this adapter?

    This network adapter is well-suited for enterprise data centers and server environments requiring high bandwidth and low latency, such as storage networking, virtualization, and HPC clusters.

  • Can this adapter be installed in any PCIe slot?

    The adapter requires a PCI Express 2.0 x8 slot or higher; it is not compatible with smaller PCIe form factors.
