INTEL E835XXVDA2M PCI-E Expansion Card | Dual-Port 25GbE SFP28 Connectivity

Unleash superior performance and overcome network bottlenecks in your data center, cloud, and enterprise environments with the INTEL E835XXVDA2M PCI-E Expansion Card. As a leading solution in the Connectivity subcategory, this adapter is engineered to meet the intense demands of modern workloads. It provides a powerful upgrade for servers handling high-volume traffic, network-intensive applications, and sophisticated data storage solutions. By integrating advanced Intel Ethernet 800 Series technology, this card moves beyond simple packet delivery to offer application-specific traffic prioritization, ensuring your most critical services receive the bandwidth and low latency they require to operate at peak efficiency.

This adapter is one of the premier Expansion cards available, designed to accelerate performance across a broad spectrum of network traffic. Whether you are deploying robust virtualization platforms, building high-performance computing (HPC) clusters, or scaling out your storage infrastructure, the E835XXVDA2M delivers the speed and intelligence necessary to elevate your system´s capabilities. Its dual-port configuration provides both high throughput and redundancy, making it an ideal choice for mission-critical systems where uptime and consistent performance are paramount.

Key Benefits:

Accelerate Application Performance: Experience a transformative improvement in application response times and predictability. With Application Device Queues (ADQ) technology, this card intelligently assigns dedicated queues to specific applications, reducing latency and jitter for critical workloads like Redis, NGINX, and various database services.

Breakthrough Low-Latency Connectivity: Achieve exceptional throughput and ultra-low latency for demanding data storage and HPC workloads. Full support for RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) through both iWARP and RoCEv2 protocols allows the network adapter to bypass the kernel, enabling direct memory access between servers for faster data transfers and reduced CPU overhead.

Optimized for Virtualized Environments: Maximize I/O performance and density in virtualized servers. This PCIe card features robust support for Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV), which provides direct, high-speed connectivity to virtual machines (VMs), significantly improving throughput and reducing latency within your cloud infrastructure.

Dynamic and Adaptable Packet Processing: Tailor the network adapter to your specific needs with Dynamic Device Personalization (DDP). This feature allows for the customization of the packet processing pipeline, enabling the card to recognize and steer specific protocols and traffic types, ensuring optimal performance for proprietary and emerging workloads.
