Intelligent NIC (2^nd Gen)

NXB-10GCX4 Intelligent NIC^®

10 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe Adapter with CX4 Copper Interface

The NXB-10GCX4 Intelligent NIC^® is based on NetXen's NX2031. It is a high-performance layer 2 NIC that can support offload of TCP/IP, iSCSI and RDMA protocols, significantly improving throughput of servers, server appliances and storage platforms, while reducing host CPU utilization. This allows overall system performance to scale dramatically.

The NX203x is a family of highly integrated, fully programmable Intelligent NIC devices designed to offload and accelerate processing tasks. It is built around NetXen's revolutionary Protocol Processing Engine architecture. Read More >
