Intel Ethernet Network Adapter
Key Features

• Dual-Port QSFP28
• PCI Express (PCIe) 4.0 x16
• Ethernet Port Configuration Tool (EPCT)
• Application Device Queues (ADQ)
• Dynamic Device Personalization (DDP)
• Supports both RDMA iWARP and RoCEv2

Meet the demanding bandwidth needs of advanced Communications, Cloud, and Storage deployments and improve application efficiency and network performance with innovative and versatile capabilities that optimize high-performance server workloads.

The Intel® Ethernet Network Adapter E810-2CQDA2 delivers up to 200Gbps of total bandwidth in PCIe 4.0-compliant systems. Each QSFP28 port supports up to 100Gbps, providing the functionality and throughput of two 100Gbps adapters in a single bifurcated PCIe 4.0 x16 slot.

Performance for Cloud Applications
Delivers the bandwidth and increased application throughput required for demanding cloud workloads including edge services, web servers, database applications, caching servers, and storage targets.

• Application Device Queues (ADQ) improves application response time predictability using advanced trafficsteering technology
• Dynamic Device Personalization (DDP) enhances packet classification capabilities, to deliver up to 3x throughput improvement for some cloud workloads
• Supports both RDMA iWARP and RoCEv2 for high-speed, low-latency connectivity to storage targets, hybrid cloud, and HPC

Optimizations for Communications Workloads
Provides packet classification and sorting optimizations for high-bandwidth network and communications workloads, including mobile core, 5G RAN, and network appliances.

• Dynamic Device Personalization (DDP) supports existing and new communications-specific protocols improving packet-processing efficiency up to 3x for some Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) workloads
• IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) v2 enables precise clock synchronization across the 5G RAN deployments
• Enhanced Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) support increases packet-processing speeds

Intel® Ethernet 800 Series Network Adapters include these technologies | Application Device Queues (ADQ) for Predictability at Scale

As modern data centers scale, a key challenge is to provide scalable, predictable application-level performance. ADQ technology improves performance scalability and predictability by dedicating queues to key workloads, delivering predictable high performance through dramatically reduced jitter.
