2.6/2.4
Raising 10Gbps NIC performance to another notch, LeWiz’s Talon3220 NIC offers 2, 10Gbps Ethernet ports on a single high-performance,
8 lane PCI-Express (PCI-E) bus slot. Taking advantage of LeWiz’s advanced TCP/IP offload engine (TOE) architecture, the Talon3220
NIC provides TCP/IP acceleration as an option on the card. IT professionals can use the card in the familiar NIC mode or in the high
performance TOE mode to achieve highest bit rate and lower system CPU utilization. LeWiz’s Talon3220 card is designed specifically for
servers, storage, and high-end client systems with PCI-E bus slots. The card is available for both the low-cost CX-4 copper or long
distance fiber-optic network medium. A range of network distance from 15 meter to 40 kilometer can be implemented with the Talon3220.
In the NIC mode, LeWiz’s 10GigE Talon3220 NIC can operate in a wide range of operating system environments from Windows to Linux.
It simply works everywhere from desktop clients to data-center servers and storage systems. In the full TOE offload mode, the same NIC
can operate in the Linux environment with low CPU utilization and higher speed capability, thus optimizes the efficiency of the system and
the network environment.
The dual port 10GigE PCI-E is ideal for storage systems that require mirroring or backup function. One port can be connected to the storage
-server connection and the other can be connected to the mirror or the backup system. Using only 1 card and 1 PCI-E slot saves system
cost, reduces heat and at the same time makes use of the high performance PCI-E bus. The dual port can also be bonded to form a 20Gbps
pipe offering a network throughput that would satisfy the bandwidth appetite of any system in the market.
The Talon3220 utilizes chips that have been in full production, making the products highly reliable, readily available and low risk for users.
The chips used on the board have many high-performance and advanced networking features making it useful in a wide range of networks
from the LAN to the WAN environments.
Software devices drivers are also available for various operating systems: WindowsXP, WindowServer2003, Redhat Enterprise Linux,
SUSE Enterprise Linux, and Fedora Core.
Linux with 32-bit or 64-bit option. All device drivers are loadable - a unique feature of LeWiz’s TOE architecture. No need for users to
recompile the system OS - easier to use.
