Introduction

Intel® Ethernet Converged Network Adapters X710
Intel continues its history of Ethernet leadership by introducing the latest 10 gigabit family of adapters, powered by the Intel® Ethernet Controller X710.

The Intel® Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X710 family addresses the demanding needs of the next-generation agile data center by providing unmatched features for virtualization, flexibility for LAN and SAN networking, and proven reliable performance.

The family of adapters delivers superior performance up to 80 Gb/s (40 Gb/s Tx, 40 Gb/s Rx) bidirectional throughput (quad-port adapter required) in a PCI Express v3.0 x8 slot.
