LeWiz's MAGIC2028-10G™ is a 10 Gbps ultra high performance CX-4 Copper/Optical PCI-X NIC with a optional powerful on-board TCP/IP Offload Engine (LE2028™) chip. This dual option board is designed for high performance high usage networked systems such as servers, storage and networked appliances over copper or optical. By off-loading TCP/IP processing to hardware, the MAGIC2028-10G™ takes the host processor(s) out of the TCP/IP loop, no longer performing the major TCP/IP tasks in software. This balanced approach allows the host processor(s) to utilize most of its processing capability to run applications resulting in reduced system bottlenecks and enhanced system performance. Furthermore, the MAGIC2028-10G™ accelerates the TCP/IP processing effectively reducing network latency and overhead in network attached systems. The MAGIC2028-10G™plugs directly into the systems PCI-X slot. It has the capability of handling a load of up to 2M concurrent connections.
TCP/IP is the protocol used to communicate server to server, server to PC, server to storage, server to network appliance, and the list of applications continues to expand. Unfortunately, TCP/IP places a very heavy burden on host CPUs. With the advent of 10 Gbps ethernet, server CPUs choke while processing the TCP/IP overhead associated with transferring data. This board offloads the TCP/IP processing from the host CPUs, freeing up valuable CPU cycles for application processing while maintaining the programmability, configurability, and flexibility via the host interface. It supports fail-over protection/alternate pathing capability required in high-performance server and storage systems. The result is faster servers, an accelerated network, and superior application performance, saving cost and improving reliability for the enterprise network. The MAGIC2028-10G™ is ideal for network intensive environments such as file serving, network attached storage (NAS), high performance technical computing, high-end backup and restore, IP storage, and video serving.
Using LeWiz's advanced layer-processing architecture, the MAGIC2028-10G™ with the
LE2028™ chip offers the highest performance, lowest power and most cost effective way of addressing the performance bottlenecks found in many IP network-attached equipment.
