Description
The IBM 49Y7990 is a high-performance network adapter designed to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to servers and workstations. Featuring two RJ-45 ports, this adapter enables high-speed data transfer rates of up to 10 Gigabits per second per port, making it suitable for demanding network environments such as data centers, high-performance computing clusters, and storage area networks. This adapter utilizes the PCI Express (PCIe) 2.0 interface with an x8 lane configuration. The PCIe 2.0 standard offers a significant bandwidth increase over previous generations, and the x8 lane width ensures that the adapter is not bottlenecked by the interface, allowing it to achieve its full 10Gb/s potential. The RJ-45 connectors are standard for Ethernet connectivity, utilizing Cat6a or higher cabling for optimal performance at 10Gb/s speeds. Designed by IBM, this network adapter is built for reliability and performance in enterprise settings. It is compatible with servers that have available PCIe 2.0 x8 slots or higher (e.g., PCIe 3.0 x8, PCIe 4.0 x8). The dual-port design provides flexibility for network configurations, such as link aggregation for increased throughput or redundancy, or for connecting to separate networks. This adapter is a crucial component for upgrading network infrastructure to meet the growing demands of modern applications and data volumes.
