Description
Based on the Intel Ethernet Controller I210, this adapter represents the next step in the Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) networking evolution for the enterprise and data center offering Audio-Video-Bridging (AVB) support, along with power management technologies such as Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and DMA Coalescing (DMAC).The Intel Ethernet Controller I210 (I210) is a single port, compact, low power component that supports GbE designs. The I210-AT and IT offer a fully-integrated GbE Media Access Control (MAC) and a Physical Layer (PHY) port. The I210-IS offers a fully-integrated MAC and an SGMII/SerDes port that can be connected to a backplane or an external PHY. The I210 also supports PCI Express [PCIe v2.1 (2.5 GT/s)].
