Designed for use with HP ProLiant servers, the 1Gb 4-Port 366T Ethernet Adapter from HP features four Gigabit Ethernet ports designed to provide enhanced network connectivity capabilities along with reduced power consumption. This network card supports a wide range of networking features including 802.1Q VLAN with 802.p QoS tagging giving network administrators complete control over network traffic. This network adapter also supports Intel Virtualization Technology as well as auto-negotiation support, and comes tested to work with a long list HP ProLiant Servers.Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet Throughput The HP 366T adapter provides 8 Gbps aggregate full duplex, delivering enhanced network performance that improves response time and removes bottlenecks. Four ports on a single adapter are ideal for high density, I/O slot constrained servers, virtualization, security, applications, server consolidation, and increased network segmentation. The 8 Gbps full-duplex aggregate throughput meets the needs for customers desiring high bandwidth but are not yet ready to move to 10 Gigabit Ethernet.Jumbo Frames The HP 366T adapter supports jumbo frames, permits up to a 9.5K byte (KB) transmission unit (MTU) when running Ethernet, which is over five times the size of standard 1500-byte Ethernet frame. Jumbo frames can help achieve higher throughput and better CPU utilization and are particularly useful for database transfer and tape backup operations.802.1Q VLANs with 802.1p QoS Tagging IEEE 802.1Q virtual local area network (VLAN) protocol allows each physical port of the HP 366T to be separated into multiple virtual NICs for added network segmentation and enhanced security and performance. VLANs increase security by isolating traffic between users. Limiting the broadcast traffic to within the same VLAN domain also improves performance.TCP/IP Stateless Offloading For overall improved system response, the HP 366T supports TCP, IPv4, UDP checksum offload, Large Send Offload (LSO), and Segmentation Offload (TSO). These features optimize host efficiency, leaving the CPU available for other duties.Optimized for Virtualization Intel Virtualization Technology for Connectivity provides I/O Virtualization support for VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ help meet the performance demands of consolidated virtual workloads.Message Signal Interrupt Extension Up to 25 Message Signaled Interrupt (Extended) vectors per port provides performance benefits for multicore servers by load balancing interrupts between CPUs/cores.Time Synchronization Hardware assist for IEEE 1588 and IEEE 802.1AS time synchronization implementations for time sensitive applications.Energy Efficient Ethernet Compliant with IEEE 802.3az, featuring advanced power savings by throttling power usage with network load activity (with compatible link partner).HP Sea of Sensors 3D Support for HP Sea of Sensors 3D which is a collection of 32 sensors that automatically track thermal activity - heat - across the server. When temperatures get too high, sensors can kick on fans and make other adjustments to reduce energy usage. What makes it better is the upgrade from all six fans kicking on at one time to a new system where only one kicks on - the one in proximity of the area that started heating up - thus reducing the amount of energy used for cooling.HP Active Health System Supports HP Active Health System monitors and records changes in the server hardware and configuration enabling customers to have accurate information that will assist in diagnosing problems and delivering rapid resolution when server failures occur.10/100/1000 Twisted Pair Networks In addition to Gigabit Ethernet, the 366T adapter supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps providing compatibility with Ethernet and Fast Ethernet twisted pair networks.Full and Half Height Brackets The 366T is a low-profile card supporting both full height and half height PCI Express slots. A full height bracket is pre-installed on the card with the half hei
