Overview
Intel continues its legacy of Ethernet leadership by introducing a 10/40
gigabit family of adapters powered by the Intel® Ethernet X710 Controller
code-named Fortville.

The X710 adapter family addresses the demanding needs of the next-gener-
ation agile data center by providing unmatched features for both server and
network virtualization, flexibility for LAN and SAN networks and proven, reli-
able performance.

Leading 10/40 GbE Performance
The X710 adapter family delivers superior performance with a theoretical
throughput of 80 Gb/s (40Gb/s Tx; 40Gb/s Rx) bidirectional throughput (quad-
port adapter required), in a PCI Express v3.0 x8 slot. Optimized performance
vectors and key uses include:
throughput of 80 Gb/s (40Gb/s Tx; 40Gb/s Rx) bidirectional throughput (quad-
port adapter required), in a PCI Express v3.0 x8 slot. Optimized performance
vectors and key uses include:
• Small Packet Performance: Achieves wire-rate throughput on smaller pay-
load sizes (>128 Bytes for 40 GbE and >64 Bytes for 10 GbE
• Bulk Transfer Performance: Delivers line-rate performance with low CPU
usage for large application buffers
• Virtualized Performance: Alleviates hypervisor I/O bottlenecks by providing
flow separation for Virtual Machines (VMs)
• Network Virtualization: Network virtualization overlay offloads including
VXLAN, NVGRE, Geneve, Network Service Headers (NSH)
