PCIe2 LP 2-port 10 GbE BaseT RJ45 Adapter (FC EL3Z; CCIN 2CC4)
Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) EL3Z adapter.
Overview
The PCIe2 LP 2-port 10 GbE BaseT RJ45 Adapter is a PCI Express (PCIe) generation 2, x8, short
form-factor, low-profile adapter. The adapter provides two 10 Gb RJ45 ports. This adapter provides a
PCIe 2.0 host bus interface. The adapter supports the Ethernet network interface controller (NIC)
function. The adapter is a high-performance adapter that consolidates traffic for networking. The link
aggregation and failover features of the adapter make it suitable for critical network applications that
require redundancy and high availability. Figure 55 on page 63 shows the FC EL3Z adapter.
The ports default to auto negotiate the highest speed either at 10 Gb (10G BaseT), 1Gb (1000 BaseT), or
100 Mb (100 BaseT) full duplex. Each RJ45 port can be configured independent of the other port. Each
RJ45 port is connected with a 4-pair, CAT-6A cable, and is supported for distances of up to 100 meters.
The adapter provides the following features:
v The adapter is a PCIe2 NIC network convergence adapter.
v The 10 Gb RJ45 ports can function in the NIC mode.
v
The adapter can be used as the host local area network (LAN) adapter.
v The adapter supports interrupt moderation to deliver increased performance while significantly
reducing processor utilization
v The adapter supports dual port operation in any PCIe3 or PCIe2 slot.
