[SFN5152F]The SFN5152F is designed to address issues facing data center managers today. Equipped to handle the application loads of the latest multi-core processors, the SFN5152F also delivers unmatched power efficiency for the consolidation and deployment of high-density servers. The SFN5152F supports data networking with concurrent support of iSCSI and NAS traffic – while remaining true to the need for cost effective, power-efficient and high-performance network I/O.
Details
Application Performance Leadership
The SFN5152F delivers the industry’s lowest latency along with full 20 Gbps bidirectional line-rate performance. Featuring a rich set of stateless offloads, it provides efficient acceleration of the most demanding network protocol tasks.
Proven Powerful Technology
Based on standards-compliant, robust, power-efficient 10GbE technology currently shipping in OEM servers and switches, the SFN5152F enables high performance, cost-effective solutions for next-generation applications.
Scalable, Hardware-Assisted Virtualization
The SFN5152F is designed to optimize virtualized application performance and maximize the use of network resources. With 10x the number of vNICs and virtual PCIe functions than the competition, I/O performance scales as the number of CPU cores and virtual machines increase resulting in enhanced application performance supporting more applications per physical server.
The SFN5152F accelerates guest applications in leading hypervisors, supporting NetQueue and VMQ in VMware and Hyper-V, and SR-IOV in KVM and XenServer. SFN5152F relieves network I/O bottlenecks hidden in virtualized environments, allowing IT managers to allocate full network resources directly to virtualized applications. SFN5152F enables the highest performance and lowest CPU utilization in virtualized servers.
Lowest Power
At 4 Watts, the SFN5152F consumes less than half the power of the leading competitors’ products, and delivers 5-10x the efficiency of 1G Ethernet (Gbps/Watt). This not only makes a power efficient 10G network possible, it can save thousands of dollars of operating costs for a typical data center. The SFN5152F is also compatible with the Energy Star® guideline for power consumption.
