Product description The bundle of SFN6122F Server Adapter and SFM10G-SR 10GBASE-SR Transceiver from Solarflare includes one SFN6122F server adapter and two SFM10G-SR 10GBASE-SR transceivers. The SFN6122F server adapter is a dual port PCIe generation 3.0 compatible 10G Ethernet SFP+ enterprise server adapter that delivers high message rates with low latency over standard Ethernet. It also enables low CPU utilization and power consumption, providing performance and scalability for financial services and other data center environments. The server adapter is equipped to handle increasing application loads of multi-core processors. It delivers enhanced throughput and low latency with minimal CPU load, for the consolidation and deployment of high-density servers. The server adapter supports data networking with concurrent support of iSCSI and NAS traffic. The SFM10G-SR 10GBASE-SR transceiver is a hot-pluggable SFP+ device for use in 10 Gb Ethernet links over multi-mode fiber. It is compliant with the SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-SR specifications. The transceiver is RoHS compliant and lead-free per the Directive 2002/95/EC6. In addition, the SFP+ transceiver supports a 2-wire serial communication protocol as defined in the SFF-8472. This low-power module supports OM1, OM2, and OM3 multi-mode fiber (MMF) media with standard LC connectors. SFN6122F Dual Port 10GbE PCIe Gen 3 SFP+ Enterprise Server Adapter - Low Latency at High Message Rates
- The SFN6122F server adapter delivers low latency at high message rates, making it suitable for financial services and enterprise data center deployments. It also delivers 40 Gb/s bi-directional line-rate performance. Featuring a set of stateless offloads, it provides efficient acceleration of network protocol tasks It supports a wide range of drivers that are compatible with all Solarflare products, including the SFN5122F enterprise server adapter. The server adapter also supports Solarflare OpenOnload application accelerator, a user-level network stack for Linux. OpenOnload provides low latency performance with application compatibility and protocol compliance, bypassing kernel, and networking overheads, while featuring binary compatibility with standard APIs and applications
- Hardware-Assisted Virtualization
- With additional vNICs and virtual PCIe functions, the SFN6122F server adapter's performance scales as the number of CPU cores and virtual machines increase, resulting in enhanced application performance. The server adapter supports NetQueue, VMQ, and SR-IOV used to accelerate guest applications in hypervisors, such as VMware, Hyper-V, Linux KVM, and XenServer. This eliminates network input/output barriers in virtualized environments, dedicating full network bandwidth directly to virtualized applications while maintaining hypervisor management services
- Energy Efficient
- The server adapter consumes less than 6W of power and delivers 5 to 10 times the efficiency of 1G Ethernet (Gb/s/W). This results in a power efficient 10G network that can save operating cost for a data center. It is also compatible with the ENERGY STAR guideline for power consumption
SFM10G-SR 10GBASE-SR 850nm Multi-Mode 10 Gb/s SFP+ Transceiver - Compatibility
- The SFM10G-SR SFP+ transceiver module is compatible with single-port and dual-port SFP+ 10GbE server adapters. It supports up to 984.2' (300.0m) reach using standard LC connectors with OM3 MMF
- Performance
- The SFM10G-SR SFP+ transceiver enhances 10GbE SFP+ server adapter products by ensuring that they deliver performance, low-latency, low-power, and scalable input/output virtualization. Combined with the SFM10G-SR transceiver, server adapters offer value for data centers, enterprise networks, virtualization and cloud applications, and high-performance computing (HPC) clusters
- Regulatory Compliance
- The SFM10G-SR transceiver is a Class 1 Laser Product that complies with the US FDA regulations. It is certified by the TUV and CSA to meet the Class 1 eye safety requirements of EN (IEC) 60825, and the electrical safety requirements of EN (IEC) 60950
