Product Info
Based on Broadcom's scalable 10/25/50/100/200G Ethernet controller architecture, the NetXtreme-E Series P2100G 2x100G PCIe NIC is designed to build highly scalable, feature-rich networking solutions in servers for enterprise and cloud-scale networking and storage applications, including high-performance computing, telco, machine learning, storage disaggregation and data analytics.
The P2100G 2x100G PCIe NIC builds upon the success of the widely deployed NetXtreme E-Series architecture by combining a high-bandwidth Ethernet controller with a unique set of highly optimized hardware acceleration engines to enhance network performance and improve server efficiency.
Driven by the growing need for higher server bandwidth and storage capacity to support emerging applications, enterprises, telcos and cloud providers are modernizing their data centers by adopting networking technologies, such as server virtualization and NVMe-oF. The resulting expansion in data volumes increases server-to-server traffic and CPU loads for networking tasks.
Description
Enhanced connectivity
Equipped with two 100 Gb Ethernet QSFP56 ports, the Broadcom NetXtreme E-Series P2100G network adapter ensures high-speed, reliable connections for demanding data center environments.
Advanced networking features
This network adapter supports a wide range of features such as Data Center Bridging (DCB), Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS), and Receive Side Scaling (RSS), enhancing the efficiency and scalability of network infrastructures.
Optimized for virtualization
With support for technologies like Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) and Network Virtualization using Generic Routing Encapsulation (NVGRE), the P2100G is designed to optimize and streamline virtual network traffic.
Efficient power and data management
The P2100G's low-profile form factor and operational power consumption of 19. 3 watts make it an energy-efficient choice for businesses, while features like Jumbo Frames support and TCP/IP checksum offload improve data handling efficiency.
Robust security and management features
Features such as iSCSI boot, PXE support, and UEFI support provide flexible management options and enhanced security measures for network administrators.
