Optimizes performance

Optimizes server performance and improves network communication efficiency

  • Shifts processing of the communications protocol stack (TCP/IP) from the server CPU to the network card, freeing CPU cycles for other work and increasing the scalability of applications
  • Radically improves the price/performance equation for mainstream server environments with increased memory and CPU capacity to optimize application performance

Flexibility and simplification

Increases flexibility and simplifies your IT infrastructure

  • Offers accelerated networking, storage networking and clustering in a single, all-in-one adapter; provides the opportunity to consolidate ports, converge functions and centralize IT management
  • Reduces the complexity of the infrastructure so you can lower costs, mitigate risk and enable more responsive systems
  • Leverages the existing knowledge, experience and proven tools of Ethernet. Works across a broad range of servers, storage and cluster systems

Delivers scalable connectivity

Quickly respond to changing business needs through dynamic resource scaling and virtual presence and control

  • Delivers flexible solutions to fit the performance, functions and manageability needs of your data center infrastructure. Multifunction Network Adapters provide both performance and availability when connecting over a single networking device
  • Provides the opportunity for a single fabric infrastructure delivering a dramatic reduction in cost, greater flexibility in deploying business solutions and the ability to manage the infrastructure as one unified fabric
  • Multifunction Network Adapters allow you to respond quickly and creatively to changing customer demands and new market opportunities
