Intel® Ethernet Server Adapter I350
Dual- and Quad-port Gigabit Ethernet server adapters designed with performance  
enhancing features and new power management technologies
Overview
The new Intel® Ethernet Server Adapter 
I350 family builds on Intel’s history of 
excellence in Ethernet products.   Intel 
continues its market leadership with this 
new generation of PCIe* GbE network 
adapters. Built with the bridgeless Intel® 
Ethernet Controller I350, these adapters 
represent the next step in the Gigabit 
Ethernet (GbE) networking evolution 
for the enterprise and data center by 
introducing new levels of performance 
through industry-leading enhancements 
for both virtualized and iSCSI Unified 
Networking environments.  This new 
family of adapters also includes new 
power management technologies such as 
Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and DMA 
Coalescing (DMAC).
Flexible I/O Virtualization
The Intel® Ethernet Server Adapter 
I350 family includes Intel® Virtualization 
Technology for connectivity (Intel® VT-c) 
to deliver I/O virtualization and Quality 
of Service (QoS) features designed 
directly into the controller on the 
adapter.  I/O virtualization advances 
network connectivity models used in 
today’s servers to more efficient models 
by providing Flexible Port Partitioning 
(FPP), multiple Rx/Tx queues, and on-
controller QoS functionality that can be 
used in both virtual and non-virtual server 
deployments.
By taking advantage of the PCI-SIG 
SR-IOV specification, Intel® Ethernet 
products enable Flexible Port Partitioning 
(FPP).  With FPP, virtual controllers can 
be used by the Linux* host directly and/
or assigned to virtual machines. With 
this port partitioning, administrators can 
create up to eight dedicated connections 
on a single Ethernet port for use in bare-
metal and virtualized server deployments.
In a bare-metal Linux server, host 
processes can be assigned to dedicated 
network resources to provide traffic 
isolation and balanced bandwidth 
allocation.
In a virtualized environment, a VM can be 
assigned to a virtual controller to reduce 
the CPU overhead seen when using 
a software-based network bridge by 
offloading network traffic management to 
the controller.
