The bundle of Solarflare SFN5122F Server Adapter & SFM10G-SR Transceiverfrom Solarflare SFN5122F Server Adapter & SFM10G-SR Transceiverincludes one SFN5122F server adapter and two SFM10G-SR 10GBASE-SR transceivers. The SFN5122F server adapter is an IEEE 802.3ae/802.3ad/802.1Q/802.1p/802.3x compliant adapter. It delivers high message rates and low latency jitter with 40 Gb/s bi-directional line-rate performance. The adapter supports optical and copper SFP/SFP+ modules, direct-attach, Fiber (10G or 1G), 1G/10G combo, and 1000BASE-T SFP modules. It distributes IPv4/IPv6 loads across CPU cores and MSI-X minimizes interrupt overhead with Receive Side Scaling (RSS). Intel QuickData technology uses host DMA engines to accelerate input/output. This server adapter supports data networking with concurrent support of iSCSI and NAS traffic.

The SFM10G-SR 10GBASE-SR transceiver is a hot-pluggable SFP+ device for use in 10 Gb Ethernet links over multi-mode fiber. It is compliant with the SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-SR specifications. The transceiver is RoHS compliant and lead-free per Directive 2002/95/EC6. The SFP+ transceiver supports the 2-wire serial communication protocol as defined in the SFF-8472. This low-power module supports OM1, OM2, and OM3 Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF) media with standard LC connectors.

The server adapter delivers low latency along with full 40 Gb/s bi-directional line-rate performance. Featuring a set of stateless offloads, it provides efficient acceleration of network protocol tasks

The adapter supports Solarflare's OpenOnload application accelerator, a full-featured user-level network stack for Linux. OpenOnload provides unprecedented performance with application compatibility and protocol compliance, bypassing kernel, and networking overheads, while featuring binary compatibility with standard APIs and applications

With additional vNICs and virtual PCIe functions, input/output performance scales as the number of CPU cores and virtual machines increase, resulting in enhanced application performance. The server adapter accelerates guest applications in hypervisors, supporting NetQueue and VMQ in VMware and Hyper-V, and SR-IOV in KVM and XenServer. It eliminates network input/output barriers hidden in virtualized environments, allowing IT managers to allocate full network resources directly to virtualized applications. The adapter enables high performance and low CPU utilization in virtualized servers

It consumes 4.9W power and delivers 5 to 10 times the efficiency of 1G Ethernet (Gb/s/W). This results in a power efficient 10G network, saving operating costs for a typical data center. In addition, the adapter is compatible with the ENERGY STAR guideline for power consumption

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I want to be able to conduct a traditional two person interview, but have the audio recorded on separate tracks/ channels. With that being said. would this work well with the Saramonic Blink 500 B2 2-Person Digital Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System?

A: Since the Blink 500 B2 sums the 2 mics into a dual mono mix, adding a SR-AX100 will not split it for you. You could purchase 2x Blink 500 B1 systems and the SR-AX100 and get each person on seperate tracks. You could even do that with a simple wire adapter instead of the SR-AX100, but the SR-AX100 will give you individual level control. If you already own the Blink 500 B2, you can add a Blink 500 RX to the system and get the same result. I hope that helps and isn't too confusing.

Q: 2. Will this work with Deity D3 Mic?

A: I'm trying to connect the Deity D3 Mic to the SR-AX100 to the Canon 80D. But doesn't work. What am I doing wrong.

Q: 3. Does this work with the Rode VideoMic GO Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone?

A: This will not work with mics that require plug-in power such as the VideoMic Go. A mic with a battery power option would be recommended, such as the Rode VideoMic B&H # ROVMR.

Q: 4. What is the origin? Is it made in USA?

A: The country of origin is Thailand.

Q: 5. Is this rated for 10 GbE speeds?

A: Data Transfer Rate: 10/100/1000 Mb/s

Q: 6. Can I use it to connect a mixer board to my dslr?

A: No. You would require something with line inputs instead of mic inputs like the Kopul CMX-2-V2. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1332706-REG/kopul_cmx_2_v2_two_channel_passive_camcorder.html

Q: 7. Can this be used with Hollyland Lark Max transmitter?

A: Yes, the Saramonic SR-MH1 Handheld Transmitter Adapter can be used with a Hollyland Lark Max transmitter.

Q: 8. What's the difference between this and the older, non v2 version?

A: The difference may seem minor but noteworthy. From an Intel forum, "the new version (I350-T4V2) which have the AUX Power component changes that will result in a decrease of in-rush current during power supply start-up. Product functionality does not change."

Q: 9. Will this support NBASE-T (the ability to auto-negotiate with a switch running at something faster than 1Gb & slower than 10Gb?

A: No, the QNAP Mellanox MFM1T02A-SR 10GbE Transceiver only supports SPF+, it may have problems negotiating with other connection speeds.

Q: 10. How would this work with the Comica Audio BoomX-D D2 being that it seperates the audio to left and right anyway?

A: If you wanted separate level control over the left and right out of the Boom XD, you would set the receiver to stereo out and plug it into the stereo input of this mixer. Then you could use the separate volume controls to adjust each level individually.
