The Broadcom NetXtreme II 57711 (Part Number: N2XX-ABPCI02=) is a high-performance network adapter designed for server environments. It features two ports, enabling connectivity for dual network links, which can provide greater flexibility and improved network redundancy. This adapter is built using the reliable and efficient Broadcom NetXtreme II chipset technology, ensuring optimal performance in data-intensive applications and critical network environments.
The card supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections, offering high-speed data transmission capable of handling large amounts of traffic in enterprise or data centre environments. It is compatible with PCI Express x8, providing fast and reliable data transfers between the adapter and the host system. Additionally, the dual ports support fibre connections, ensuring low-latency, high-bandwidth, and high-reliability network communications.
The adapter also includes hardware-based functionality such as TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) and iSCSI boot support, both of which reduce the load on the CPU and improve overall system efficiency. The TOE feature specifically offloads network packet processing, minimising the CPU overhead and freeing up resources for other tasks. The incorporated iSCSI offload functionality is particularly beneficial for storage networking, allowing efficient data management in storage area networks (SANs).
Another important feature is the built-in remote network management support, allowing IT administrators to remotely monitor and control network parameters for easier management. The advanced features of the Broadcom NetXtreme II 57711 make it an ideal solution for enterprise-level networks, data centres, and virtualised environments that demand high availability and strong performance.
