Performance and Recommended Use of AD385A 10 Gigabit Ethernet SR Cards

Scalability Tests
9
The aggregate bi-directional throughput was about 43 Gigabits/second with four adapters
when operating at 9000 MTU. The bi-directional throughput with one, two, three, and four
AD385A adapters is shown Figure 6.
