Silicom PEG4i

Key features

Copper Gigabit Ethernet (1000Base-T) Adapters:

• Independently copper Gigabit Ethernet channels support six, four, two and one Gigabit Ethernet (1000Base-T), Fast Ethernet (100Base-Tx) and Ethernet (10Base-T)
• Triple speed 1000Mbps (1000Base-T), 100 Mbps (100Base-Tx) and 10 Mbps (100Base-T) operation
• Nway auto negotiation automatic sensing and switching between 1Gbps full duplex and 100 / 10 Mbps operations Simplex or Full Duplex
• RJ-45 female connectors

Common Key features:

• Host Interface
• Host Interface standard support
• PCI-Express Base Specification Revision 1.0a.
• High performance, reliability, and low power use in advanced Intel integrated MAC + PHY / SERDES chip Controllers
• Ultra deep, packet buffer per channel lowers CPU utilization, avoids PCI-Express congestion
• Hardware acceleration that can offload tasks from the host processor. The Controllers can offload TCP/UDP/IP checksum calculations and TCP segmentation
• Server class reliability, availability and performance features:
• Link Aggregation and Load Balancing 
• Switch dependent: 802.3ad (LACP), Generic Trunking ( GEC / FEC)
• Switch and NIC Independent
• Failover

• Priority queuing – 802.1p layer 2 priority encoding
• Virtual LANs –802.1q VLAN tagging
• Jumbo Frame (16KB)
• 802.x flow control
• Statistics for SNMP MIB II, Ethernet like MIB, and Ethernet MIB (802.3z, Clause 30)
• LEDs indicators for link/Activity/Speed status
