Supermicro AOC-STG-I2T Leaflet

The Supermicro AOC-STG-i2T is the lowest power and least cost 10GbE adapter solution in today’s data center marketplace.  
The auto-negotiation feature between 1GbE and 10GbE provided by the AOC-STG-i2T offers users the backwards compatibility 
they need for a smooth transition to 10GbE. It reliably addresses the demanding needs of bandwidth-intensive applications 
at a fraction of the cost of traditional 10GbE adapters by utilizing cost-effective RJ-45 connectors at a much longer cabling 
distance. The Supermicro AOC-STG-i2T 10GbE adapter is truly a best-in-class solution for advanced data centers.
