BCM57710 - Dual-Port 10G/2500/1000BASE-X TOE, RDMA, iSCSI PCI Express® Ethernet Controller

Dual-Port 10G/2500/1000BASE-X TOE, RDMA, iSCSI PCI Express® Ethernet Controller

The BCM57710 provides a fully integrated Layer 4 and Layer 5 solution - TCP/IP, RDMA, and iSCSI 1.0 along with dual 1000/2500/10GBASE-X Ethernet, IEEE 802.3 compliant Media Access Control (MAC) and Physical Layer Transceiver solution for high performance network applications.

By itself, the BCM57710 provides a complete single-chip dual channel 10GBASE-KX4/10GBASE-CX4 CNIC with a TCP/IP, RDMA NIC (RNIC), iSCSI 1.0 HBA, functionality for NIC or LOM solution.

  • Single-chip solution for LAN on Motherboard (LOM) and Converged Network Interface Card (CNIC) applications with integrated Dual 10-Gbps MAC and Dual XAUI™/10GBASE-CX4/10GBASE-KX4
  • Simultaneous operation of Ethernet, TCP, iSCSI and RDMA modes
  • Broadcom's first 1000/2500/10G SerDes-based TCP solution - power and space optimized for server blade, rack tower, and CNIC applications
  • Robust and highly manageable with UMP enabled high bandwidth out-of-band system management functionality over shared infrastructure and guaranteed delivery of management traffic
