Neterion Xframe® 10 Gigabit Ethernet PCI-X 1.0 Server & Storage Adapter Xframe is the industry's fastest line of 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapters. It is designed to enable server and storage OEMs to meet the needs of end users in intensive computing environments. Xframe specifically addresses high-end networked servers, NAS (Network Attached Storage) connectivity and high performance cluster computing architectures. Capitalizing on Ethernet, the proven industry-standard for 30 years, Xframe 10 Gigabit Ethernet allows end-users to preserve their existing environment: operating systems, network administration tools, core cabling, personnel training, etc. Xframe dramatically increases network performance, eliminates bottlenecks resulting from the explosion of data volumes, frees-up server and user-level bandwidth, boosts applications response and slashes server back-up times. With fewer systems and network connections, IT management is significantly simplified, increasing both security and reliability and lowering the total cost of ownership. Xframe is fully compliant with the PCI-X 1.0a specification and the IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard. The Xframe host system interface is a 64-bit, 133 MHz-capable PCI-X bus. The Xframe network interface is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet link, using standardized PMD (Physical Media Dependent) devices to ensure ready interoperability. It is the only line of adapters that can work with every major OS including multiple versions of proprietary Unix, Linux and 32- and 64-bit Windows. All Neterion products are designed to be fully software forward-compatible with future releases. Final test results from leading OEM evaluation labs on the features and benefits of Xframe: • 6 to 8-fold increase in throughput performance • 6 to 7-fold increase in NAS throughput performance • Up to 7 times lower latency than 1 Gb Ethernet • TCP processing overhead reduced by 40% • 6 to 8-fold reduction in cabling expense Xframe Features and Benefits Xframe is based on a sophisticated state machine architecture with built in HA/RAS features that provide the highest performance and reliability available. • Extensive Protocol Offloads and Assists maximize host efficiencies   by reducing host processing loads, and optimizing bus utilization • "Deep-Split Bus Transaction Capacity" provides full utilization of   PCI-X bus while achieving the industry's lowest latency • Flexible Interrupt Features include INTA, PCI 2.2 Message Signaled   Interrupt (MSI), and next generation MSI-X • True QOS (Quality of Service) support for up to 8 levels, allowing   traffic to be classified, prioritized, and queued at line rate. • 64 MB of on-board memory drastically reduces performance-degrading   linklayer flow control • Turn-key driver support for all major Operating Systems and server   architectures. (Custom driver development is available) • ECC (SEC/DED) data and control structure protection throughout   the entire adapter as well as state machine protection • "Carrier Grade" environmentals for power, thermal, and noise characteristics • Modular design permits various connectivity options that can be deployed   over multi-mode or single mode fiber Advanced Features • TCP Checksum Offload (Tx and Rx; IPv4 and IPv6) • TCP Large Send Offload support for segments up to   64 KB (plus headers) • UDP Checksum Offload (Tx and Rx; IPv4 and IPv6) • UDP "Checksum Over Fragment" Offload (IPv4 and IPv6)   for transactions up to 64 KB • IPv4 Header Checksum Offload (Tx and Rx) • IP Differentiated Services support • 64 MB Rx Frame Buffer   (host-configurable into prioritized queues) • Support for up to 32 concurrent PCI-X split transactions • Adaptive Interrupt Coalescence • PCI Physical Pin (INTA) Interrupt support • PCI Message Signaled Interrupt (MSI) support for up to   32 unique interrupts • Extended-MSI (XMSI) support for up to 64 unique interrupts   (MSIX protocol supported) • Full SEC/DED ECC protection for all on-board control and data structures • Redundant-State-Variable State Machine Error Protection for all   on-board state machines Standards Support • PCI-X 1.0a and PCI 2.3 compliant 64 bit, 133 MHz host interface • DIX/802.3 FCS Offload for Tx and Rx frames • 802.3ad “Slow Protocol" frame support • 802.3ad Link Aggregation support • 802.1Q VLAN tag support (Tx append and Rx strip) • 802.1D (ex. 802.1p) QoS support (Rx frame steering   across up to 8 queues) • Jumbo Frame support (up to 9600 Bytes) • 802.3X Pause Frame support (in hardware) • Unicast/Multicast Rx frame filtering for up to 64 address/mask pairs Network Management MAC Statistics include: • MIB Statistics • MIB2 Statistics • MIB2 Extension • RMON Statistics • RMON 2 Statistics • Automated DMA transfer of all Statistics to host memory Physical Dimensions and Environmental • Bus Type: PCI-X • Bus Width: 64 bit • Bus Speed (MHz): 133 • Optical Cabling: 850nm (SR), 1310nm (LR) • Typical Power Consumption: 15 Watts • Operating Temperature: 0 to 65 deg C • Operating Humidity: 5 to 95% • Length: 6.6" long (Half-Length) • Height: 4.2" tall (Full Height) For additional information, options and pricing about our ThinkCP™ products, please contact our sales representatives - (800)726-2477 or email - SalesDesk AT ThinkCP.com Copyright © 1997 - 2008 H.
