Silicom’s Six Port SFP Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Server adapter is PCI-Express X8 network interface card that contains six Gigabit SFP ports on a PCI-Express adapter.

Silicom’s Six Port SFP Gigabit Ethernet PCI-Express Server adapter is the ideal solution for implementing multiple network segments, mission-critical high-powered networking applications and environments within high performance servers.

Silicom’s Six Port SFP Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Server adapter is based on Intel i350AM4 Quad port Gigabit Ethernet MAC+PHY and Intel i350AM2 Dual port Gigabit Ethernet MAC+PHY of Intel Controller. The Silicom i350 support PCI-SIG Single-Root I/O virtualization and sharing specification (SR-IOV).

Performance Features:
8 Transmit and 8 Receive queues per port.
Up to 8 queues of Receive Side Scaling (RSS) minimize CPU utilization across multiple processor systems
Support PCI-SIG Single-Root I/O virtualization Rev 1.1
 Support for up to 8 virtual function (VFs)
 Partial replication of PCI Configuration space
Support for 8 pools (single queue) of virtual machine Device Queues (VMDq) per port
Support Direct Cache Access (DCA)
Support Intel I/O Acceleration Technology v3.0
TSO interleaving for reduced latency
Minimized device I/O interrupts using MSI and MSI-X
UDP, TCP and IP checksum offload
UDP and TCP transmit segmentation offload (TSO). machine
SCTP receive and transmit checksum offload
Packet interrupt coalescing timers (packet timers) and absolute-delay interrupt timers for both transmit and receive operation
 EEE (IEEE 802.3az) for reduced power consumption during low link utilization periods
