Intel Part Number: EXPI9404PT

Conserve valuable PCI Express (PCIe*) server slots while adding multi-port Gigabit Ethernet capability with the Intel® PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Server Adapter. The dedicated input/output (I/O) bandwidth of PCIe* ensures priority performance on each port, without bus sharing, for Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in Category-5 networks. The Intel® PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Server Adapter improves performance in multi-processor systems by balancing network loads across multiple central processing units (CPUs). Additionally, the Intel® PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Server Adapter enables Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology (Intel® I/OAT) for faster I/O processing on the new Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processor-based servers.

The Intel® PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Server Adapter is supported by Intel® PRO Intelligent Install and the new Intel® PROSet Utility for Windows* Device Manager. Intel® PROSet simplifies adapter installation and gives you point-and-click power to configure and manage your Intel® PRO Network Connections for connectivity you can count on.

Features and Benefits

• Two Intel® 82571GB Gigabit Controllers Enables four Gigabit Ethernet connections on a single adapter, delivering increased bandwidth for slot-constrained servers and providing high performance, reliability, and low power use in two single, integrated, dual port PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller chips
• Load balancing on multiple CPUsIncreases performance on multi-processor systems by efficiently balancing network loads across CPU cores when used with Receive-Side Scaling from Microsoft or Scalable I/O on Linux*
• Intel® I/OAT2 Accelerates I/O with higher throughput and lower CPU utilization by offloading processing overhead
  
• Virtualization Multi-port cards provide the platform with the port density required for virtualized environments
• Interrupt moderation Delivers increased performance while significantly reducing CPU utilization
• Compatible with x4, x8, and x16 full-height3 PCI Express* slot Allows quad-port operation in almost any PCI Express server slot, except x1 slots, and allows each port to operate without interfering with the other
  
• Support for most network operating systems (NOS) Enables widespread deployment
  
• Remote management support Reduces support costs with remote management based on industry-wide standards
  
• Category-5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP), 4-pair cabling Uses existing 4-pair cabling and saves re-wiring costs
  
• RoHS compliant4, lead-free1 technology Compliant with the new European Union directive (effective July 2006) to reduce the use of hazardous materials
  
• Intel® PROSet Utility for Windows* Provides point-and-click power over individual adapters, advanced adapter features, connection teaming, and Device Manager virtual local area network (VLAN) configuration
  
• Advanced cable diagnostics Dynamically tests and reports network problems (error rate, cable length) and automatically compensates for cable issues (cross-over cable, wrong pin-out/polarity)
