Performance
Gigabit Ethernet Throughput
A 1000Mbps Ethernet transfer rate delivers outstanding network performance that improves response time and removes bottlenecks.
PCI-X Data Path
PCI-X architecture currently operates at speeds up to 133Mhz providing data transfer rates above one gigabit per second. PCI-X technology also ensures hardware investment protection by retaining backward compatibility with the standard PCI bus architecture at the device and driver level. Both the PCI-X v1.0a and PCI v2.3 standards are supported.
Jumbo Frames
Jumbo frames (also known as extended frames) permit a 9K byte maximum transmission unit (MTU), which is six times the size of standard 1500 byte Ethernet frame. The NC310F supports Jumbo frames as a way to achieve higher throughput and better CPU utilization. Jumbo frames are particularly useful for database transfers and tape backups.
