| Widespread Compatibility |
| Support for most NOSs |
Enables high-density
networking in server appliances and embedded applications
|
| Intel® SingleDriver™
technology |
Common driver suite for
Gigabit Ethernet reduces installation complexity
|
| Backward compatibility with
previous generations |
Reduces support costs and
simplifies installation and maintenance of Intel® PRO/1000 Network
Adapters
|
| Supports 3.3 volt 64-bit PCI-X*
1.0 or PCI 2.2 buses |
This flexible,
auto-sensing adapter works in a variety of bus types
|
| Remote management support (WfM,
RIS, SNMP/DMI) |
Reduces support costs with
remote management based on industry-wide standards
|
| IEEE 802.3ab* compatibility |
Supports Gigabit Ethernet
industry-wide networking standard
|
| New Features in the Intel®
PRO/1000 GT Quad Port Server Adapter |
| Two Intel® NH82546GB
Gigabit Controllers |
Enables four Gigabit
connections in a single adapter, delivering increased bandwidth for
slot-constrained servers and providing high-performance, reliability,
and low-power use in a single, integrated, dual-port Gigabit Ethernet
controller chip
|
| Lead-free |
Lead has not been
intentionally added, but lead may still exist as an impurity below 1000
ppm or an approved RoHS exemption applies
|
| Interrupt moderation |
Delivers
increased performance while significantly reducing CPU utilization
|
| Advanced cable diagnostics |
Dynamically tests and
reports network problems (interrupts, error rate, cable length) and
automatically compensates for cable issues (cross-over cable, wrong
pin-out/polarity)
|
| Expanded advanced server
features |
Intel® Advanced
Networking Services (ANS) software increases uptime with redundant,
teamed connections and scales bandwidth by balancing network traffic
across multiple server connections. Now offers Switch Fault Tolerance
and Test Switch Configuration to test compatibility and further increase
uptime
|
| Gigabit-over-Copper
Advantages |
| Gigabit speeds on Category-5
cable networks |
Achieves Gigabit speeds on
commonly deployed CAT-5 cabling without costly cable replacement
|
| Compatible with Fast
Ethernet |
Reduces training costs and
quickly ramps rollout
|
| Auto-sensing,
self-configuring 10/100/1,000-Mbps performance |
Enables migration to
faster networks easily and inexpensively—adapter will automatically
sense when the network is able to support a faster speed, and
self-configure to save IT staff time, money, and server downtime
