Product Description
The IBM 47C9952, based on Solarflare's SFN5162F technology, is a powerful dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet network adapter designed for high-throughput, low-latency networking environments. Each port utilizes an SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) interface, allowing for flexible use of various transceivers to connect to different network media, such as fiber optic cables. This adapter is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern data centers, high-performance computing, and enterprise applications. With its PCI-Express 2.0 x8 interface, the SFN5162F provides ample bandwidth to the host system, ensuring that the full 10Gb/s speed of each port can be utilized without bottlenecks. The low-profile form factor makes it suitable for installation in compact server chassis, such as 1U or 2U rackmount servers, where space is often at a premium. This makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of server hardware. The adapter's performance is further enhanced by Solarflare's advanced networking features, which can include offloading capabilities and optimized drivers for efficient packet processing. This reduces CPU utilization and improves overall system performance, making it ideal for virtualization, storage networking (iSCSI, FCoE), and high-frequency trading platforms. The dual ports offer redundancy and the potential for link aggregation, providing both reliability and increased bandwidth.
