Product information

Features and benefits

Support for most NOSsEnables widespread deployment
Intel® SingleDriver™ technologyCommon driver suite for Gigabit Ethernet reduces installation complexity
Backward Compatibility with previous generations of Intel® PRO/1000 Network AdaptersReduces support costs and simplifies installation and maintenance
Supports 64- or 32-bit PCI-X 1.0 or PCI 2.2 busesThis flexible, auto-sensing adapter works in a variety of bus types
Remote Management Support (WfM, RIS, SNMP/DMI)Reduces support costs with remote management based on industry-wide standards
IEEE 802.3z CompatibilitySupports Gigabit Ethernet industry-wide networking standard
Intel® 82545 Gigabit ControllerProvides high performance, reliability, and low power use in a single integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller chip
Full-height and low-profile, screw-on brackets included with each adapterCompatible with full-height and low-profile PCI standard. Full-height bracket can be easily swapped out and replaced by the shorter, low-profile bracket, for installation in high-density 1U and 2U servers that feature low-profile PCI
Interrupt ModerationDelivers increased performance while significantly reducing CPU utilization
Large Send Off-load/TCP Segmentation Off-loadCompatible with Large Send Off-load feature of Microsoft Windows* Server 2003, 2000 and XP which enables wire speed performance with low CPU utilization
Expanded Advanced Server FeaturesIntel® ANS software increases uptime with redundant, teamed connections and scales bandwidth by balancing network traffic across multiple server connections. Now offers Switch Fault Tolerance and Test Switch Configuration to test compatibility and further increase uptime
LC ConnectorsThis new, smaller connector design is compatible with the latest fiber-optic cabling standards
1000BASE-LXEnsures compatibility with fiber-optic cable lengths up to 550 meters in multi-mode, and up to 10 kilometers in single-mode which will later support 10 Gigabit speeds
