Overview

  • Intel’s 3rd generation SmartNIC card provides 2 x 100Gbps Ethernet connectivity in a FHHL PCIe form factor card.
  • Integrated support for IEEE 1588v2 PTP and SyncE for O-RAN, Broadcast and other markets that need timing synchronization support. The on-board OCXO provides timing accuracy and extended holdover.
  • On-board Intel E-810 Ethernet Controller provides easy system integration with no changes to application software
  • N6000-based SmartNICs come in two configurations:
    1. With on-board E810 Ethernet controller: PCIe 4.0 x8 lanes go to the FPGA and x8 lanes go to the Ethernet controller.
    2. Without Ethernet controller: PCIe 4.0 x16 lanes go to the FPGA.
