Chelsio S310E-CR-C Leaflet
Fully Featured Server Adapter
The S310E offers best-of-class performance and features, including
IP/UDP/TCP checksum and large send offload, rate control and QoS,
virtualization, and rule-based traffic steering and filtering.

virtualization, and rule-based traffic steering and filtering.
Third-Generation Protocol Offload Engine
The S310E employs Chelsio’s unique third-generation Terminator 3 ASIC, a
high-performance, programmable protocol processor. Terminator 3 pro-
cesses all connections in a single datapath to deliver line-rate 10Gbps perfor-
mance with one connection, up to thousands of connections. In contrast, com-
petitive multi-RISC offload engines, which rely on having enough connec-
tions to distribute their processing among parallel processors to achieve full
performance, are ultimately limited by the performance of each processor.

Complete and Flexible TCP Offload
The Terminator 3 ASIC has hundreds of programmable registers for protocol
configuration, RFCs, and offload control. The S310E can offload TCP pro-
cessing per-connection, per-server, per-interface, and globally and simulta-
neously tunnel traffic from non-offloaded connections to the host processor
for the native TCP/IP stack to process. The S310E provides a flexible zero
copy capability for regular TCP connections, requiring no changes to the
sender, to deliver line rate performance at minimal CPU utilization.

Upper Layer Protocols
The S310E offloads the expensive byte touching iSCSI operations and pay-
load placement to greatly accelerate iSCSI performance for IP SAN applica-
tions while maintaining flexibility. The iSCSI protocol itself can be imple-
mented by vendors to provide product differentiation. The S310E also imple-
ments a high-capacity, low-latency, high-bandwidth iWARP RDMA/RDDP,
which adheres to the IETF standards.

Robust, Proven Solution
Subjected to thousands of hours of compatibility testing, over two years of
stress testing by several OEM test suites and production deployments in serv-
ers, storage systems and cluster computing, Chelsio’s robust, stable protocol
offload technology delivers proven performance in a wide range of environ-
ments. The S310E is generations ahead of competing products.

Software Drivers
The S310E is available with a full suite of protocol software and drivers for
Windows (Chimney). The software supports both protocol-offload and non-
offload modes.
