74Y4064 - IBM PCIE2 4-Port 1GBE Adapter

Description

The IBM 74Y4064 is a network adapter engineered to deliver robust and high-speed connectivity for IBM server environments. This adapter is equipped with four Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) ports, each utilizing standard RJ-45 connectors, allowing for easy integration with existing network infrastructure using common Ethernet cables. The aggregate bandwidth provided by these four ports is substantial, making it suitable for servers that handle significant network traffic, such as those used for web hosting, file sharing, or application serving. Operating on a PCI Express 2.0 x4 interface, the 74Y4064 ensures a high-bandwidth connection to the server's system board, facilitating efficient data transfer between the network and the server's processors and memory. The low-profile (LP) design is a key feature, enabling installation in space-constrained server chassis, including 1U and 2U rack-mount servers. This makes it a versatile choice for a wide array of IBM server models where physical space is a limiting factor. This quad-port adapter enhances server networking by providing multiple connection points, which can be leveraged for network segmentation, load balancing, or failover configurations to improve network resilience and performance. It is a reliable solution for businesses seeking to expand their server's network capacity and ensure seamless communication for critical applications and services. The 74Y4064 represents IBM's commitment to providing scalable and efficient networking solutions for its enterprise customers.
