5-Speed 10G/NBASE-T PCIe Network Card

As of August 1, 2019, the 5-Speed 10G/NBASE-T PCIe Network Card based on the Tehuti TN4010 network controller has been discontinued and this model is no longer being manufactured, sold or maintained.

The 5-Speed 10G/NBASE-T PCIe Network Card was based on Tehuti’s 3rd generation TN4010 10 Gigabit Ethernet controller designed for low-power, low-cost, single-port connectivity required by Application Servers and Workstations.

The replacement for this card can be found under the same name 5-Speed 10G/NBASE-T PCIe Network Card, which is based on the Aquantia AQtion AQC107s chip.

 


 

5-Speed 10GBase-T/NBASE-T™ PCIe Network Card

This PCIe host card ist based on the Aquantia AQtion AQC107s controller, a 5-speed, 10G PCI Express to Ethernet controller that can easily handle 10 Gbps line-rate performance while delivering maximum flexibility. It delivers up to 10 Gbps network connectivity speed through 100m of Cat 6a cabling or up to 5Gbps on legacy Cat 5e or Cat 6 cabling.

This card supports auto-negotiation allowing the NBASE-T solution to optimally select the best speed: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE), 5 Gigabit Ethernet (5GbE), 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (2.5GbE), 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) or 100 Megabit Ethernet (100MbE) over Cat5e/Cat6 or better cabling.

Features

  • Supports auto-negotiation for 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, 100M
  • Runs up to 10G at 100m with Cat-6A cable or 5G with Cat-6 cable
  • Backward compatible with 1000Base-T, 100Base-T Networks
  • PCI Express Gen-3 x4 host bus interface
  • 16K Jumbo Frames
  • IP, TCP, UDP checksum offloading
  • Compliant with IEEE 802.3bz
  • Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
