Ethernet network adapter enables data centres and enterprise solutions

Mouser Electronics, Inc. now stocks the E610-IT4 Ethernet network adapter for OCP 3.0 from Intel. The adapter, part of the Intel Ethernet 600 Series, provides broad interoperability, critical performance optimisations, and increased agility for communications, cloud, and enterprise IT network solutions.

The adapter supports auto-negotiation between multiple port speeds, providing maximum flexibility in a quad-port configuration. With support for 10GBASE-T, 5G, 2.5G and 1000BASE-T connectivity, it delivers efficient, high-performance connectivity for data centre control planes, workstations and edge applications.

Intel Ethernet Flow Director (Intel Ethernet FD) provides hardware-based application traffic steering, and Intel Virtualisation Technology (Intel VT) delivers exceptional I/O performance in virtualised server environments. The adapter further decreases I/O bottlenecks through intelligent offloads, allowing near-native performance and VM scalability. Advanced security features, anchored by hardware RoT and secure communications via PLDM manageability, improve Ethernet security.

The E610-IT4 adapter complies with the OCP NIC 3.0 small form factor specifications, providing compatibility and simplifying installation and upgrades. The SFF format enables up to 16 PCIe lanes on the card edge. The E610-IT4 Ethernet network adapter is available in individual (E610IT4OCPV3) or multi-piece (E610IT4OCP3M5) packaging for flexible purchase options.
