Introduction
The
Intel PRO/1000 PT Server Adapter provides
the dedicated input/output (I/O) bandwidth
of PCIe, without bus sharing, for Gigabit
Ethernet connectivity in Category-5 networks.
The Intel PRO/1000 PT Server Adapter is designed
to provide high performance in multi-processor
systems by efficiently balancing network loads
across multiple Central Processing Units (CPUs)
when used with Receive-Side Scaling from Microsoft
or Scalable I/O on Linux*. It also features
10/100/1000 Mbps self-configuration for compatibility
with mixed-speed network devices.
For
easy installation and management, all Intel®
PRO Network Connections are supported by Intel®
PRO Intelligent Install and the new Intel®
PROSet Utility for Microsoft* Device Manager.
Intel PROSet simplifies adapter installation
and gives you point-and-click power to configure
and manage all your Intel PRO Network Connections
for connectivity you can count on.
