Benefits include the following:
High performance: Provides the 
highest performance levels for
mission-critical enterprise and
mega data centers.
Full-duplex line rate across both 
ports
Over 1.0 million IOPS for iSCSI
Over 1.7 million IOPS for FCoE
No-compromise converged NIC
Broadcom leverages field-proven
support for L2 networking, TOE, iSCSI 
HBA, and FCoE HBA. 
Low CPU utilization: Broadcom 
offload architecture minimizes
the CPU overhead, eliminating
competition with the host application 
for host resources and freeing
valuable CPU cycles for processing 
user applications:
iSCSI and FCoE operation is 
offloaded and accelerated for block 
storage, with high I/O per second 
and high bandwidth.
RSS is used to avoid bottlenecks by 
distributing network processing 
across multiple CPUs.
Adaptive interrupt coalescing 
streamlines interrupt processing.
MSI/MSI-X allows interrupt
distribution in multi-CPU systems.
Field-proven software: The Broadcom 
NetXtreme II BCM57712 Adapter
leverages field-proven networking and 
storage software stacks for networking 
and storage. 
Broadcom's software suite supports 
the advanced Ethernet features in 
virtualization, load balancing, failover, 
and performance.
Unified network and storage man-
agement
: The BACS management 
application provides a single, 
centralized management platform 
for both network and storage I/O 
management.
