Technical Specifications
The Intel WGI210AT integrates a MAC and PHY for Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. It supports iWARP/RDMA (Internet Wide Area RDMA Protocol/Remote Direct Memory Access) which offloads TCP/IP processing from the CPU, enabling faster data transfer and lower latency. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet), reducing power consumption during periods of low network activity. The controller also supports advanced features such as VLAN tagging, QoS (Quality of Service), and TCP segmentation offload (TSO). It is typically connected via a PCIe Gen2 x1 interface. The operating temperature range is typically between 0°C and 85°C, depending on the specific implementation and cooling solutions employed. It generally requires a 3.3V power supply.
