00Y3290 - IBM 2-Ports PCI Express 2 X8, Emulex Virtual Fabric Adapter (CFFh) for BladeCenter

Description

The IBM 00Y3290 is a high-performance dual-port network adapter card designed to provide 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Equipped with two SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) ports, it allows for flexible connection using various fiber optic transceivers, enabling high-speed data transmission over longer distances. This card is crucial for environments that demand significant network bandwidth, such as data centers, high-performance computing clusters, and enterprise networks. It interfaces with the host system via a PCI Express (PCIe) 2.0 x8 slot, providing ample bandwidth to support the full throughput of both 10Gb/s ports simultaneously. The PCIe 2.0 x8 interface ensures that the network card is not a bottleneck for network traffic, allowing for efficient data transfer between the network and the server's memory. This makes it ideal for demanding applications like large file transfers, video streaming, storage area networks (SANs), and virtualization. This adapter card is engineered for reliability and performance, meeting the rigorous demands of enterprise server environments. It supports the 10GBASE-X standard, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of 10 Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure. The IBM 00Y3290 is a key component for upgrading network infrastructure to support next-generation data speeds and demanding workloads.
