IBM P/N:00E1599 Dual-Port 10GbE PCIe x8 RoCE SR SFP+ Network Adapter

IBM FC:EC30 P/N:00E1599

SKU: 00E1599 分类: 品牌: ,

Here is the detailed technical specification and overview for the IBM 00E1599 network adapter.

IBM 00E1599 Overview

The IBM 00E1599 (Feature Code EC30) is a high-performance, enterprise-grade PCIe Generation 2.0 x8 dual-port 10GbE (10 Gigabit Ethernet) RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet) SR (Short Range) SFP+ network adapter.

This hardware utilizes an optical/SFP+ transceiver architecture optimized for extreme throughput and low-latency environments. Built upon Mellanox ConnectX-2 technology (specifically the MNPH29D-XTR / MNPH29D-XSR ASIC design), this adapter is specifically manufactured to handle heavy storage clustering, high-frequency database workloads, and high-performance computing (HPC) inside IBM Power Systems environments.

Key Features & Protocol Support

  • RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet): Delivers Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) over standard Ethernet infrastructure. It allows data transmission directly between the memory spaces of compute nodes without involving the host operating system’s network stack, which drastically slashes CPU overhead and latency.

  • SR Optical Capabilities: Designed for Short Range (SR) fiber multi-mode environments. When loaded with 10GbE SR SFP+ transceivers, it transmits data flawlessly via OM3/OM4 fiber cables.

  • Stateless Offloads:

    • TCP/UDP/IP Checksum Offload

    • Large Send Offload (LSO) / Large Receive Offload (LRO)

    • Receive Side Scaling (RSS)

  • Data Center Bridging (DCB): Supports enhanced transmission selection, congestion notification, and priority-based flow control (PFC) to enable a completely lossless Ethernet canvas required for high-grade RoCE implementation.

System Compatibility
