Upgrade your server's networking capabilities with the NICPCIE-4SFP, a high-performance quad-port SFP Gigabit server adapter. Built upon the proven and reliable Intel I350AM4 controller, this adapter is engineered for the demanding environments of modern enterprises and data centres. It introduces new levels of performance through industry-leading enhancements for both virtualised and iSCSI Unified Networking environments, ensuring your infrastructure can handle high-throughput tasks with ease.

This adapter excels in virtualised settings, featuring Intel's Virtualisation Technology (VT-c) which provides Flexible Port Partitioning for up to 32 virtual functions and advanced Quality of Service (QoS). This allows for sophisticated traffic management and isolation, enabling you to assign dedicated network resources to different virtual machines or applications, reducing CPU overhead and eliminating I/O bottlenecks for a more efficient and responsive virtual environment.

Beyond its virtualisation prowess, the NICPCIE-4SFP is designed for exceptional power efficiency. It incorporates innovative power management technologies like Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), which reduces power consumption during periods of low network activity, and DMA Coalescing (DMAC), which intelligently batches packets to allow server components to remain in low-power states for longer. These features help to significantly lower your data centre's operational costs and environmental impact.

For storage networking, the adapter delivers scalable and cost-effective iSCSI SAN connectivity. With built-in hardware offloads for TCP segmentation and checksums, it accelerates iSCSI traffic to reduce processor usage and deliver exceptional data throughput. This makes it an ideal solution for organisations looking to deploy a dependable, enterprise-class storage area network without the complexity and cost of dedicated hardware.
