Description Technical Specs   The Small Tree PXTG1 server card allows you to connect your legacy Power Mac G5 with PCI-X or G5 Xserve systems to 10 Gigabit Ethernet capable switches and storage devices with CX4 connectors. The PXTG1 card will provide an immediate performance increase on large transfers, especially when using jumbo frames. The distance limitation on CX4 cables is 15m.   Product Features Connectivity You Can Count On The Intel® PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter— part of the second-generation 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) adapters from Intel—represents the first 10GbE-over-copper connection from Intel. It provides enterprises with a highly affordable, low-latency 10GbE network connection for CX4 cable distances up to 15 meters, depending on wire gauge. This makes the Intel PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter an ideal solution for high-bandwidth network connections in high performance computing clusters and for short distances within wiring closets. Built around the highly integrated Intel® 82597EX 10-Gigabit Ethernet Controller for 64-bit PCI-X connections running up to 133 MHz, the Intel PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter is ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications. High-speed server connectivity—once reserved for costly, proprietary technologies such as high-performance computing clusters and grid-based computing—can now be achieved with the standardized connectivity of the Intel PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter. Wide testing for interoperability with switches from major original equipment manufacturers further helps to ensure that the Intel PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter will provide connectivity you can count on. The Intel PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter helps improve network productivity and eliminate costly proprietary networking topologies while enabling deployment of standards-compliant Ethernet connectivity based on the IEEE 802.3ak 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard for CX4 copper cable. 10GBASE-CX4 Applications and Advantages The Intel PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter is an immediate, lower-cost solution for a wide range of data-center applications, including: • High-performance computing clusters • Consolidated LAN and iSCSI traffic • Database link to backup storage and NAS • Digital editing, scientific and commercial simulation, and collaboration • Scaled-up consolidated servers • Real-time video streaming on web servers By using the Intel PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter on critical server and storage applications, you can: • Increase performance and bandwidth • Consolidate multiple GbE connections • Improve video streaming • Scale up by consolidating servers • Converge your networks by combining LAN and storage traffic • Enable low-cost HPC clusters with low-cost, high-bandwidth interconnects Compatibility Apple Power Mac G5 with PCI bus and Xserve G4 and G5 Mac OS 10.2.7 or later Features and Benefits Intel® 82597EX 10GbE PCI-X 133-MHz, 64-bit media access control (MAC) controller    High performance on widely adopted second-generation PCI host-bus interface CX4 copper cable support through CX4 XPAK module    Allows 10GbE connectivity over CX4 copper cable lengths up to 15 m, depending on American Wire Gauge (AWG) IEEE 802.3ak* 10GBASE CX4 compliant    Supports industry-wide 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard Jumbo frames supported up to 16 KB    Increases performance through reduced overhead Transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP) segmentation and TCP checksum offload in receive (Rx) and transmit (Tx)    Provides efficiency for host processing 256 KB Rx and 32 KB Tx data first-in, first-out (FIFO) buffer    Enhanced Tx and Rx logic with minimum buffer requirements Parity protection for Rx FIFO buffer    Data integrity Mechanisms for delaying/reducing Tx and Rx frame interrupts    Reduces processor utilization PCI-X 1.0a and PCI 2.3    Wide compatibility Flow control 802.3x*    Supports industry-wide networking standard PCI 2.2 message signaled interrupts    Improves system interrupt handling Intel® PROSet Utility for Microsoft* Device Manager    Provides point-and-click power over individual adapters, advanced adapter features, connection teaming, and virtual local area network (VLAN) configuration Built on Intel® lead-free1 technology for RoHS2 compliance    Compliant with the new European Union directive (effective July 2006) to reduce the use of hazardous materials
