Description
Intel® Ethernet Network Adapter XXV710-DA2 – PCI Express 3.0 x8 – 2 Port(s) – Optical FiberFlexible and Scalable 10/25GbE Network Adapter with Hardware Optimizations and Intelligent Offloads for Cloud and Network Virtualization Deployment
The Intel® Ethernet Network Adapter XXV710 is a new addition to the Intel® Ethernet 700 Series network adapters.
The Intel® Ethernet 700 Series network adapters address the demanding needs of the next-generation agile data center by providing unmatched features for both server and network virtualization, flexibility for LAN and SAN networks and proven, reliable performance.
Leading 10/25GbE Performance
The Intel Ethernet Network Adapter XXV710 delivers excellent performance with a theoretical throughput of 50Gb/s (25Gb/s single-port bi-directional), in a PCI Express v3.0 x8 slot.
Optimized performance vectors and key uses include:
- Small Packet Performance: Achieves wire-rate throughput on smaller payload sizes (>69 bytes for 25GbE and 64 bytes for 10GbE in single port).
- Bulk Transfer Performance: Delivers line-rate performance with low CPU usage for large application buffers.
- Virtualized Performance: Alleviates hypervisor I/O bottlenecks by providing flow separation for Virtual Machines (VMs).
- Network Virtualization: Network virtualization overlay offloads including VXLAN, NVGRE, GENEVE, MPLS, VXLAN-GPE with NSH.
