PE2G6SFPI35 Server Adapter

Six Port SFP Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Server Adapter Intel® i350AM4 Based

Silicom’s Six Port SFP Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Server adapter is PCI-Express X8 network interface card that contains six Gigabit SFP ports on a PCI-Express adapter.

Silicom’s Six Port SFP Gigabit Ethernet PCI-Express Server adapter is the ideal solution for implementing multiple network segments, mission-critical high-powered networking applications and environments within high performance servers.

Silicom’s Six Port SFP Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Server adapter is based on Intel i350AM4 Quad port Gigabit Ethernet MAC+PHY and Intel i350AM2 Dual port Gigabit Ethernet MAC+PHY of Intel Controller.

The Silicom i350 support PCI-SIG Single-Root I/O virtualization and sharing specification (SR-IOV).
