Sun PCI-Express Dual Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

High speed network throughput

This card offers dual gigabit/sec Ethernet UTP and MMF connectivity using a single 4xPCIe slot or a plug-in unit. That can give you a needed boost in performance for I/O-bound applications and redundancy for mission-critical data.

High performance features

Sun GigaSwift Ethernet Adapters give you 1 Gbps throughput, Jumbo Frames and Sun trunking support, as well as hardware TCP/UDP checksum generation. They provide full duplex copper- or fiber-based Ethernet connectivity, as well as voltage and temperature monitoring. The resulting high-bandwidth connection is ideal for today's high-performance network applications.

Easy installation and service, more uptime

They're hot-swappable, which accelerates installation, provisioning, serviceability, and time to repair because you don't have to shut down and restart the system. It saves time and keeps your availability high.

Easy on your CPUs

The adapter's Jumbo Frames support accommodates larger packets (up to 9Kbyte), which helps your CPUs handle more computations. At the same time, its hardware assist for TCP checksum generation and checking, packet parsing, and interrupt coalescing reduce CPU processing overhead.

Full duplex capable

Near line-rate data transfers in both directions increases your network throughput.

IEEE Compliant

Broad compliance gives you more flexibility and a long life. These adapters are fully compliant with IEEE 802.3ab/802.3z standards as well as IEEE 802.1Q VLAN and 802.1P/802.1D Priority Tagging.
