Chelsio S304E

Chelsio S304E ... available and dramatically lowers host-system CPU communications overhead.

With on-board hardware that offloads TCP/IP, iSCSI, and iWARP RDMA processing from its host system, the adapters free up host CPU cycles for useful applications. The system achieves increased bandwidth, lower latency, and lower power.

With these adapters, Chelsio is delivering on the promise of the 'unified wire,’ enabling the convergence of server networking, storage networking, and cluster computing interconnects onto a single platform and a single fabric.

1Gb Ethernet-only networking reduces the data center's cost in network adapters, cables, switches, rack space, power, equipment spares, management tools, planning, networking skills, and installation.
