NX3-20GCU Intelligent NIC^®

Dual Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe 2.0 Adapter With Direct Attach Copper Interface

The NX3-20GCU Intelligent NIC^® is based on NetXen's NX3031. It is a high-performance Layer 2 NIC that can support offload of TCP/IP and RDMA protocols, significantly improving the throughput of servers, server appliances and storage platforms, while reducing host CPU utilization. This allows overall system performance to scale dramatically.

The NX3031 is the third generation of NetXen's Intelligent NIC devices. It is a highly integrated, fully programmable chip designed to offload and accelerate processing tasks. It is built around NetXen's revolutionary Protocol Processing Engine architecture.

The NX3-20GCU is a dual port 10GbE, low profile PCI Express card with support for copper twinax cabling.
