Description

High Performance, Dual Port 40GbE Unified Wire AdapterEnables TCP, UDP, ISCSI, iWARP and FCoE Offload over Single Unified Wire with SR-IOV, EVB/VNTag, DCBOverviewChelsio’s T580-LP-CR is a dual port 40 Gigabit Ethernet Unified Wire adapter with PCI Express 3 host bus interface, optimized for cloud computing, HPC, virtualization, storage, and other data center applications.The fifth-generation (T5) technology from Chelsio provides the highest 40GbE performance in the industry and dramatically lowers host-system CPU communications overhead with on-board hardware that offloads TCP/IP, iSCSI, FCoE and iWARP RDMA processing from the host system and frees up host CPU cycles for other applications. As a result, the system benefits from higher bandwidth, lower latency, and reduced power consumption.The Unified Wire SolutionThe T580-LP-CR enables a unified wire for LAN, SAN, and cluster traffic, made possible by the high bandwidth and low latency characteristics, combined with storage and cluster protocols operating over Ethernet (iSCSI, FCoE, and iWARP). T5 based adapters such as the T580-LP-CR support both file and block based storage protocols and are ideal for building high performance SAN and NAS solutions. With both iSCSI and FCoE offload, FC applications can run natively over Ethernet, while taking advantage of its performance benefits and economies of scale. T5 also offers an ultra-low latency RDMA over Ethernet (iWARP) interface, making the T580-LP-CR a competitive drop-in replacement for InfiniBand in high performance computing applications. It is supported in the same standard soVware distributions and allows running IB applications unmodified.T580-LP-CR integrates a full-fledged hardware Traffic -anager for robust flow control, traffic management, and predictable QoS. The adapter’s two ports and IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation, and port-to-port and adapter-to-adapter failover features are ideal for critical network applications that require redundancy and high-availability capabilities.T580-LP-CR Ethernet-only unified networking reduces the data center’s cost in adapters, cables, switches, rack space, power, equipment spares, management tools, planning, installation and operation.HighlightsPCI Express Gen3 x8 Ultra Low LatencySupports Up to 1M ConnectionsFull TCP and UDP offloadFull iSCSI, FCoE offloadFull iWARP RDMA offloadFull NAT offloadEVB, Flex10, VNTagPCI-SIG SR-IOVIntegrated media streaming offloadHW based firewall in the cloudTraffic filtering & managementSoftware Compatible with T4ApplicationsData-Center NetworkingScale up servers and NAS systems Link servers in multiple facilities to synchronize data centersConsolidate LAN, SAN, and cluster networksCloud ComputingVirtualization features to maximize cloud scaling and utilizationRuns InfiniBand, Fibre Channel apps unmodified on Ethernet Cloud ready functional and management features QoS and Traffic managementNetworked StorageEnable high performance NAS systems and Ethernet-based IP SANsDevelop shared-storage systems providing both file- and block-level servicesHigh Performance ComputingVery-low latency EthernetIncrease cluster fabric bandwidthDeploy Ethernet-only networking for cluster fabric, LAN, and SANSpecificationsHost InterfacePCI Express Gen 3 x8MSI-X, MSI and support for legacy pin interruptsHigh Performance RDMALow latency and line rate bandwidthEnhanced RDMA primitivesiWARP support on Linux OFEDSupport for Atomics and Immediate DataMicrosoft Network Direct supportSupported Transport for SMB-Direct in Microsoft Windows Server 2012UDP/IP & Multicast OffloadUDP Sockets API offloadLow user-to-user latencyMulticast replication on ingress or egressVirtualizationPCI-SIG SR-IOV128 Virtual and 8 Physical functions144 port virtual switchEVB, VEPA, Flex10, VNTag512 virtual MAC addressesOffload 802.1 Qbg/hFCoEFull HBA FCoE (Initiator or Target)Open-FCoE Offload (Initiator)CRC32 offload generation & verificationIngress & Egress ACL (Access Control List)T10 DIF/DIX supportiSCSIFull iSCSI initiator and target mode stackCRC32 offload generation & verificationiSCSI proxy switching based on SCSI CDBFull HBA offloadT10 DIF/DIX supportTCP/IP Full OffloadFull TCP implementation including IPv4 & IPv6Microsoft Chimney supportExtensive RFC compliance, fully featured stackFull TCP Proxy between any set of connections VLAN support up to 4096 VLAN IDsLoad balancing and Fail-over capabilitiesStateless OffloadsTCP/UDP checksum offload for IPv4 & IPv6TSO, LSO, and GSO for IPv4 & IPv6VLAN filtering, insertion & extractionLine rate packet filtering and attack protectionFine granularity time stamping (down to 2ns)Ethernet Routing (packet header rewrite)Packet Tracing and Packet SniffingEthernetIEEE 802.3ae (10 GbE) IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet)IEEE 802.3z (1 GbE)IEEE 802.1P priorityIEEE 802.1Q VLAN taggingIEEE 802.1Qbg EVB/VEPAIEEE 802.Qhn VNTagIEEE 9-2/1Qg/h Congestion NotificationIEEE 802.3x flow controlIEEE 802.3ad load-balancing and failoverEther II and 802.e encapsulated framesMultiple MAC addresses per interfaceJumbo Frames up to 9.6KbytesPhysical and EnvironmentalDimensions without bracket: 6.6 in. x 2.7 in. or 16.76 cm x 6.88 cmOperating Temp: 0 to 55ºC or 32 to 131ºFOperating Humidity: 5 to 95%Airflow: 200 lf/mTypical power consumption: 19WWarranty1-year limited hardware warranty – free repair or replacement for faulty hardware due to Chelsio defect or failure.Extended warranty to 3 years can be purchased within first year.30 days free technical support, software maintenance & upgrades with the purchase of any Chelsio adapter or software product.Ordering InfoModel: T580-LP-CRPhysical Interface: 40GBASE-SR4*Connector: QSFP+AccessoriesSM40G-SR: 40G short-reach QSFP+ optic moduleOCTTAPCABLE3M: QSFP+-to-4xSFP+ Twinax Passive CableQSRCABLE10M: 10m QSFP+-to-QSFP+ SR Optical CableQTAPCABLE1M: 1m QSFP+-to-QSFP+ Twinax Passive CableQTAPCABLE3M: 3m QSFP+-to-QSFP+ Twinax Passive CableQTAPCABLE5M: 5m QSFP+-to-QSFP+ Twinax Passive Cable* QSFP+ optics sold separately.
