Ideal for...
Customers requiring high performance Ethernet networking
- Customers in a broad range of advanced computing environments are working with ever more complex data sets requiring 10Gb bandwidth including high performance computing (HPC), database clusters, iSCSI, and storage backups, grid systems and virtualization, server, I/O, & fabric consolidation, and VoIP and VOD.
Resource-constrained customers wanting greater server efficiencies
- With Linux Socket Acceleration (LSA), the NC512m reduces the CPU cycles required to process network traffic in Linux environments.
- 10,0000 Mbps bandwidth facilitates consolidation of workloads and applications into fewer and fewer servers.
- Unified fabrics simplify networking infrastructures and can greatly reduce costs associated with purchasing and managing IT resources.
