StarTech.com 4-Port RJ45 Gigabit OCP 3.0 Server Network Card w/Intel® I350, SFF 4C+/PCIe 3.0/PXE/VLAN/9K Jumbo, Multi-Speed Ethernet NIC

Description

This 4-port RJ45 1Gbps OCP 3.0 Network Interface Card (NIC) features an Intel® i350-AM4 Ethernet Controller, enhancing performance and data integrity. The Ethernet card adheres to OCP 3.0 standards and ensures broad compatibility, making it an ideal solution for reliable network connectivity and robust data transfer capabilities.

Optimized Network Efficiency

Leverage existing Cat5e/Cat6 cabling (or better) up to 100m to maximize existing networks and equipment. The NIC supports variable speed options (10/100/1000 Mbps) with auto-negotiation and 9K jumbo frames to reduce packet overhead, reducing network slowdowns.

Enhanced Hardware

This network adapter leverages the OCP 3.0 standard, a server-specific innovation, that optimizes size and port density while enabling simplified installation, maintenance, and upgrades of Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) through hot swapping. It's designed for the SFF form factor, aligning with W1 4C+ standards. The network adapter is compatible with both TSFF and SFF systems expanding compatibility with different server types.

Advanced Features

The Ethernet card supports Intel® vPro™ for remote management and troubleshooting, PXE boot for expedited deployment or updates, and VLAN support for improved traffic management and reduced network congestion. The NIC is compatible with Windows Server, VMware, and Linux and supports Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) to enhance virtual machines' performance with minimal overhead. LAN transformers are included to maintain signal quality and reduce EMI, ensuring reliable communication up to 100m even when using Cat5e.
