Supermicro AOC-STG-I2 network card Internal Ethernet

AOC-STG-i2 is a high-performance, dual-port 10Gb network controller optimized for multicore processor-based servers and virtualized environments. This adapter addresses the networking bottlenecks associated with server consolidation and is ideal for virtualization and demanding enterprise applications such as storage and high-performance computing. This excellent energy-efficient low-profile card is also an ideal choice to unify storage while maximize performance at the lowest TCO. - Dual-port Intel 82598EB with two CX4 connectors. - PCI-E x8 (PCI-e Gen 2 Compatible) to maximize performance. - Intel I/O Acceleration Technology (I/O AT) for improved CPU utilization. - Low-latency interrupts. - 16 Virtual Machine Device queues (VMDq) for virtualized environment. - Direct Cache Access (DCA) to eliminate cache misses and reduce CPU load. - Tx/Rx, IP, TCP, and UDP checksum offloading (IPv4, IPv6) capabilities to increase throughput and lower processor utilization. - Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) support. - Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) statistic counters. - iSCSI boot. - Energy-efficient design (maximum 6.5W). - Operating temperature: 0-55°C. - OS Support: Windows, Linux, VMWare. Compatibility: - Support all motherboards with a PCI-e x8 slot. - Support all servers with a low-profile or full-height expansion slot.
