Q&A
The Intel Gigabit CT Desktop NIC provides a complete end-to-end Gigabit solution from the server to the switch infrastructure and down to the desktop and workstation. Overall network reliability is improved by using Gigabit Ethernet. Just as networks migrated from 10-Mbit to 100-Mbit and gained a 10-fold improvement, the same will be true when moving from 100-Mbit to Gigabit. By alleviating congestion and removing bottlenecks, the network simply performs better. Gigabit Ethernet's dramatic increase in popularity is based on its scalable performance, flexibility, ease of implementation and lowered costs approaching 10/100 Ethernet. As the trend for bandwidth-intensive applications continues, the need for high-performance connectivity solutions will fuel the Gigabit transition.
By bringing Gigabit to the Desktop, many benefits are achieved for network administrators and for end users. Deploying Gigabit to the desktop is no longer an unattainable feat; it is a reality that is being achieved due to three items - affordability, ease of deployment, and performance benefits.
Key Benefits of the Intel Gigabit CT Desktop NIC
End-to-end Gigabit solution
Better network performance by alleviate congestion and removing bottlenecks
High-performance connectivity solution for your LAN
Interrupt moderation - significantly reduces CPU utilization and increases throughput
ACPI, WOL, PXE - allows lower power consumption, remote wake and remote booting
Advanced Cable diagnostics - dynamically tests and reports network problems (interrupts, error rate, cable length) and automatically compensates for cable issues
PCI-E v1.0a compliant
Optimized transmit and receive queues
Support for ACPI WOL (wake on LAN), Magic Packet, and OOB WOL.
A large 48Kbyte per port On-Chip memory
Jumbo Frames up to 16KB supports faster performance when the rest of the network/subnet also supports Jumbo Frames
Statistic counters for SNMP and RMON (802.3z, clause 30)
Multiple transmit and receive descriptor queues
Half and Full Duplex operation (10/100)
TCP, UDP and IP checksum offloads
TCP segmentation capability compatible with NT5.x offloading features
Remote cable management with diagnostics and fault isolation
Supports Advanced Network Services (ANS) Teaming. This feature lets you take advantage of multiple Intel network adapters in a system by grouping them together. ANS teaming can use features like fault tolerance and load balancing to increase throughput and reliability.
