Intel releases 100gbe pcie ethernet 800 cards

While all consumers are still in the 1 GigE LAN era (with a look at 2.5, 5, and 10 GigE nearby), Intel is already moving tokens towards 100 GBit / s cards by announcing a new series of adapters. professional network, with the Ethernet 800 series.

PCIe Ethernet 800 cards allow 100GbE speeds

Intel has managed to improve connection speeds over the 700 series, going from 40GbE to 100GbE with the Intel Ethernet 800 series.

PCIe cards have been developed under the codename Columbiaville and, in addition to increased performance, add features like Application Device Queues that ensure each application can request its own queue and that all data is no longer mixed.

The Intel 800 Series Ethernet Adapter offers port speeds of up to 100Gbps and is intended to move massive amounts of data across the cloud, communications, storage and business market segments. At the moment, this card is not intended for the common user.

ADQ technology increases the predictability of application response time while reducing latency and improving performance.

The presentation of the Intel Ethernet 800 tells us that the cards will be available in volume from the third quarter of this year 2019. This marks once again the improvement in connection speeds that we are enjoying in recent years, with the use extended fiber optic connections across the board.
