Product Description
IBM EN0L PCIe3 LP 4-port (10 Gb FCoE & 1 GbE) SFP+Copper & RJ45 Adapter (CCIN 2CC1, P/N 00E8140)
The IBM EN0L is the low-profile variant of the converged network adapter, providing two 10 Gb SFP+ ports for Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Ethernet NIC traffic alongside two 1 Gb RJ45 ports for standard Ethernet. Built for IBM Power Systems servers with a PCIe Gen3 x8 interface, this adapter supports active copper twinax cables on the SFP+ ports (up to 5 m) and CAT-5/6 cabling on the RJ45 ports (up to 100 m). It features 256 MB onboard memory, interrupt moderation for reduced CPU load, and full convergence of LAN and storage networking in AIX, IBM i, Linux, and VIOS environments.
Features
- Two 10 Gb SFP+ ports supporting FCoE and Ethernet NIC via active copper twinax cables (up to 5 m)
- Two 1 Gb RJ45 ports for 1 GbE / 100 MbE Ethernet over standard CAT-5/6 UTP cabling (up to 100 m)
- PCIe 3.0 x8 low-profile interface for high bandwidth and low latency in space-constrained servers
- Converged networking unifies storage (FCoE) and data traffic on the same adapter
- 256 MB onboard buffer memory for improved data throughput and handling
- Intelligent interrupt moderation / coalescing to lower host CPU utilization
- Compliant with IEEE 802.3ae (10 Gigabit Ethernet), 802.3ab (1 Gigabit Ethernet), and FCoE standards
- Low-profile form factor (includes low-profile bracket) compatible with PCIe3 slots requiring reduced height
