Intel PRO/1000 PF Quad Port Bypass Server Adapter Internal Ethernet 1000Mbit/s networking card

Fiber Quad Port GbE Server Adapter for Inline Security The Intel® PRO/1000 PT and PF Quad Port Bypass Server Adapters provide in-line server appliances, such as Intrusion Protection Servers (IPSes), with high-performance, low-latency, in-line connectivity, and a bypass mode to ensure business continuity. These adapters also use the PCI Express* serial bus for greater throughput, and they support Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology (Intel® I/OAT) for further performance enhancement, including the reduced overhead so important to IPS applications.

The Intel® PRO/1000 PT and PF Quad Port Bypass Server Adapters are intended for use by equipment manufacturer hardware designers in application-specific in-line server appliances, where a bypass mode is desirable. Given that equipment manufacturers typically write specific software applications for their in-line platforms, Intel only provides open source reference drivers for these adapters. Interested hardware designers may contact their local Intel representative for additional product or purchase information.
