Features
| Intel® 82599 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller |
Industry-leading, energy-efficient design for next-generation 10 Gigabit performance and multi-core processors |
| Low-profile |
Enables higher bandwidth and throughput from standard and low-profile PCIe slots and servers |
| Load balancing on multiple CPUs |
Increases performance on multi-processor systems by efficiently balancing network loads across
CPU cores when used with Receive-Side Scaling (RSS) from Microsoft or Scalable I/O on Linux* |
| iSCSI remote boot support |
Provides centralized storage area network (SAN) management at a lower cost than other iSCSI solutions |
| Support for most network operating systems (NOS) |
Enables widespread deployment |
| RoHS-compliant2 |
Complies with the European Union directive 2002/95/EC to reduce the use of hazardous materials |
| Intel® PROSet utility for Microsoft Windows* Device Manager |
Provides point-and-click management of individual adapters, advanced adapter features, connection
teaming, and virtual local area network (VLAN) configuration |
| Time Sync (IEEE 1588, 802.1as) |
Lets networked Ethernet equipment synchronize internal clocks according to a network master clock;
endpoint can then acquire an accurate estimate of the master time by compensating for link latency |
