46M6171 - IBM Broadcom Dual Port 10 Gigabit G2 Ethernet Expansion Card

Description

The IBM 46M6171 is a high-performance network expansion card specifically engineered for the IBM BladeCenter platform. It provides two ports that support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) speeds, delivering exceptional bandwidth for data-intensive applications and high-speed networking requirements. The CFFh (Common Form Factor hot-plug) design ensures it fits seamlessly into the blade server chassis, allowing for easy installation and hot-swapping capabilities. This adapter is crucial for environments that demand significant network throughput, such as large data centers, high-performance computing clusters, and storage area networks. By offering 10Gb/s connectivity, it significantly reduces network latency and bottlenecks, enabling faster data transfers and improved application responsiveness. Its dual-port design also allows for network redundancy and load balancing, enhancing the overall reliability and performance of the server's network connection. As a component of the IBM BladeCenter ecosystem, the 46M6171 is built to stringent quality and reliability standards. It integrates with the blade server's management infrastructure, providing centralized control and monitoring. This expansion card is an essential upgrade for organizations looking to future-proof their network infrastructure and maximize the performance of their blade servers.
