Delivers high-performance networking using an economical cabling infrastructure
The explosive growth in virtualization is driving the need for a faster net-work. Meanwhile, network-intensive applications, such as video and real-time media, are also demanding more bandwidth.
The Intel X540 Dual Port 10BaseT Adapter Family for IBM® System x® is an excellent choice for addressing the needs of today's data center networks. The Intel X540 network adapter family supports 10GBASE-T connec-tors that utilize RJ-45 ports over unshielded twisted pair cabling. Because these adapters are backward compatible with your existing 1000BASE-T switches, they greatly simplify your transition to 10 GbE technology.
