Overview

The Broadcom NetXtreme II 10GBase-T adapter family provide:

  • A turnkey dual-port 10 GbE adapter solution operating at 100 m over CAT6a or CAT7 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable
  • Interoperable with IEEE standard devices operating at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1 Gbps over existing CAT5 UTP
  • A dependable, performance-focused solution that can be optimized for high throughput and high I/O per second, with low CPU utilization

Broadcom offload architecture minimizes the CPU overhead, eliminating competition with the host application for host resources and freeing valuable CPU cycles for processing user applications:

  • TCP offload engine (TOE) accelerates network data transfers, with high I/O-per-second and high bandwidth.
  • Receive side scaling (RSS) is used to avoid bottlenecks by distributing network processing across multiple CPUs.
  • Adaptive interrupt coalescing streamlines interrupt processing.
  • Message Signal Interrupt (MSI/MSI-X) allows interrupt distribution in multi-CPU systems.

Broadcom’s 10GBASE-T PHY is based on highly advanced digital signal processing to allow robust operation over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wiring. It is a highly integrated solution that combines enhanced analog front ends with digital adaptive equalizers, ADCs, phase-locked loops, line drivers, LDPC encoders and decoders, echo cancellers, crosstalk cancellers, and all required support circuitry.

The Broadcom NetXtreme II ML2 Dual Port 10GbaseT is a special mezzanine LAN-on-motherboard (mezzanine LOM) form factor adapter that also supports the Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI) for communication with the server's onboard IMM2 management processor. This support enables the sharing the network interface with the IMM2 and the operating system, thereby eliminating the need for a separate management network

The adapters have the following features:

  • Offer an end-to-end solution up to 10 Gb on Category 6A or 7 UTP cabling up to 100 m, and up to 1 Gb on Category 5E UTP cabling up to 55 m
  • Two integrated RJ-45 Ethernet ports operating at 10/100/1000 Mbps or 10 Gbps speeds
  • pNIC mode support
  • Supports failover and NIC teaming
    • Smart Load Balancing
    • IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation
  • Supports PXE 2.1
  • Jumbo frame support (up to 9 KB)
  • IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging support
  • IEEE 802.1x flow control support
  • IEEE 802.1p quality of service (QoS) support
  • Supports IPv4 and IPv6
  • Supports Broadcom Advanced Control Suite (BACS)
  • Suppors Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI) (ML2 adapter only)

Performance features:

  • TCP offload engine (TOE)
  • TCP, IP, UDP checksum offload
  • Receive side scaling (RSS)
  • TCP segmentation offload (TCO)
  • Giant send offload (GSO)
  • Message Signal Interrupt (MSI/MSI-X)
  • Supports Switch-independent NIC partitioning (NPAR) with up to four partition assignments per 10GbE link (44T1370 and 00D2026)
  • Supports Unfied Fabric Port (UFP)
