Intel® PRO/1000 PT Server Adapter

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.

High-performance, self-configuring 10/100/1000 Mbps connection for PCI Express* slots

Multi-Gigabit scalability and increased uptime through advanced server features

Optional low-profile bracket included for high-density, rack-mounted servers

Product availability may be limited.
