Description
This is a product description for the Intel I350-T2V2 Internal Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapter 2 Ports Pci-e. This adapter is designed to provide high-speed networking for servers. It features Intel Ethernet Power Management Technology, which reduces idle power, reduces capacity and power as a function of demand, and enables functionality only when needed. It also features Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP) technology, which utilizes industry standard PCI SIG SR-IOV to efficiently divide your physical Ethernet device into multiple virtual devices. Finally, it features Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) technology, which offloads some of the switching done in the Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) to networking hardware specifically designed for this function.
Intel Ethernet Power Management Technology provides solutions to
common power management approaches by reducing idle power, reducing
capacity and power as a function of demand, operating at maximum
energy efficiency whenever possible, and enabling functionality
only when needed.
Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP) technology utilizes industry
standard PCI SIG SR-IOV to efficiently divide your physical
Ethernet device into multiple virtual devices, providing Quality of
Service by ensuring each process is assigned to a Virtual Function
and is provided a fair share of the bandwidth.
Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) is a technology designed to
offload some of the switching done in the VMM (Virtual Machine
Monitor) to networking hardware specifically designed for this
function. VMDq drastically reduces overhead associated with I/O
switching in the VMM which greatly improves throughput and overall
system performance
Single-Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) involves natively
(directly) sharing a single I/O resource between multiple virtual
machines. SR-IOV provides a mechanism by which a Single Root
Function (for example a single Ethernet Port) can appear to be
multiple separate physical devices.
