SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwire - September 21, 2009) -
Interface Masters Technologies,
an industry leader and innovator in networking solutions, has announced
additional members of its 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) Server Adapter Card
family that are designed to integrate with PCI-express (PCI-e) based Inline
Networking Servers, including WAN Acceleration, UTM, and IPS Systems, and
Security and Monitoring Appliances such as Firewalls, IDS systems, and
Analysis Probes. The Niagara 32711 and 32710 server adapters are low power
Dual Port 10 GbE NICs, with SFP pluggable modules for Multi-Mode and
Single-Mode Fiber media, based on Intel's latest ethernet controller, the
82599. Niagara 32710 supports failover and Network bypass.
The new
Niagara
32711 and
Niagara
32710 10 GE NICs are based on the latest 10GE Intel 82599 Gigabit
Ethernet Controller, which provides PCI-e 2.0 (5 GT/s) support,
100/1000/10Gbps auto-negotiation capabilities, low power 6.2W operation,
and 128 Transmit (Tx) and Receive (Rx) Queues. The 82599 also offers
specialized features including enhanced virtualization support, layer 2 & 3
security including IPSec & LinkSec, Intel® I/OAT Acceleration v3.0, VLAN
Tagging, Stripping and Packet Filtering, FCoE Transmit, Segmentation and
offload, and SNMP and RMON statistic counters. Intel's 82599 also
possesses a variety of time manageability interfaces including RMII, SMBus,
PXE, iSCSI Boot.
The Niagara 32710 low-profile, dual port 10G fiber server adapter card with
bypass is designed for high-availability server applications that demand
premium performance and maximum uptime. The bypass feature, upon power
failure or power loss, allows network traffic to continue by re-routing
traffic from the transmit port directly to the receive port. This creates
a closed loop that bypasses the down appliance, ensuring that network
uptime is maintained.
"These two new 10GE NICs have been intelligently designed to leverage the
latest 10 Gigabit technology to meet the highest performance standards of
the enterprise, security and datacenter markets," stated Ben Askarinam,
founder and CEO of Interface Masters Technologies. "These power-efficient,
low-profile NICs take advantage of PCI-e Gen2 standards to provide
unparalleled network I/O performance at a competitive price point."
