BROADCOM Bcm5719-4p neliporttinen Ethernet-palvelinsovitin - PCI-e

The Broadcom BCM5719-4P is a 1 Gigabit PCIe Ethernet network card designed for enterprise and data center servers and workstations. It provides four 10/100/1000BASE-T ports (and support for 10/100/1000BASE-X) with full line-rate throughput, a PCI Express host interface and hardware features for high-precision time stamping and synchronization.

Advantages

The BCM5719-4P delivers multicore-optimized performance with separate PCI Express functions per LAN interface and hardware I/O virtualization including multiple receive and transmit queues and MSI-X vectors. It supports virtualization technologies such as VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ, and includes IEEE 1588 / IEEE 802.1AS-capable time synchronization features—high-precision clock, packet timestamp registers and programmable trigger inputs.

Suitable for

• Enterprise and data center servers requiring reliable 1 GbE connectivity
• Virtualized environments using VMware NetQueue or Microsoft VMQ
• Workstations and network appliances needing PCIe Ethernet connectivity
• Systems requiring hardware-based time synchronization (IEEE 1588 / 802.1AS)

How to use

Install the BCM5719-4P into an available PCI Express slot on a compatible server or workstation, secure the card and connect the network cables to the RJ-45 ports. Install appropriate Broadcom drivers for your operating system and configure network settings through the host OS or hypervisor. For virtualized deployments enable NetQueue or VMQ support in the driver to leverage multiple queues and MSI-X vectors.

Recommendations

Use the latest Broadcom drivers and firmware to ensure compatibility and full access to I/O virtualization and time synchronization features; enable IEEE 1588/802.1AS functionality only when the network and management infrastructure support hardware timestamping.
