3.5 Network Interface Controller
The Intel
®
Server Board S2600IP and Workstation Board S2600CR have an Intel
®
Ethernet
Controller I350 GbE Controller. The controller supports PCI Express* 2.0 (5GT/s and 2.5GT/s).
The controller enables four-port or two-port 1000BASE-T implementations using integrated
PHY’s. The controller supports VMDq, SR-IOV, EEE, and DMA Coalescing.
