Advantech Platforms for 10 GigE networking 
on Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series  
While  we  have  numerous  methods  of  measuring  performance  in  terms  of  absolute  values  it  is  also  a 
matter  of  perspective  and  relativity.  Driving  at  70mph  on  the  freeway  is  very  fast  relative  to  our  own 
walking or even running pace but pales in comparison to a 200mph race car, let alone a Mach2 fighter 
plane. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link and as such we are always striving to improve that 
“weak link.” So it is with any computer or network system platform. When we had to deal with a mere 
10  or  even  100Mbps  on  the  network  side,  processors  had  no  issue  keeping  up.  As  we  moved  to  GigE 
with first 1 and now 10 GigE the weak link or bottleneck would switch between processing capacity and 
network bandwidth. With the introduction of Intel's latest‐generation microarchitecture (Nehalem) and 
the Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series we are witnessing the next step in the evolution of parallel multi‐
core  processing,  providing  unprecedented  performance  and  dynamic  scalability.  Enabling  the  next 
generation of packaged application server platforms and ATCA blades, Nehalem processors will be there 
to  “suck  up”  that  10  GigE  traffic.  The  perfect  solution  for  performance  hungry,  high  bandwidth,  deep 
packet inspection, security and other content aware applications. 

Processor Evolution 
When  it  comes  to  examining  the  evolution  of  processor  performance  or  for  that  matter  most  of  the 
technology  that  now  surrounds  us  Moore’s  law  comes  to  mind.  Gordon  Moore,  a  co‐founder  of  Intel, 
observed back in 1965 that the number of transistors that could be crammed into an integrated circuit 
was  doubling  approximately  every  two  years.  We  have  made  great  leaps  in  our  processor  innovation 
and  no  longer  simply  add  more  and  more  resistors;  however,  Moore’s  law  has  been  expanded  and  is 
often used to describe the overall evolution of performance, size, capacity and price. For example a PC 
will halve in price for a technology that may be 2 years old and the price for latest models remains static 
while performance and capacities double. The Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series is the fastest yet. 

How Fast is Fast Enough 
Why faster and faster, won’t there be a point in time when we have all the speed we need? Over the 
years  numerous  industry  pundits  and  economists  have  claimed,  on  more  than  one  occasion,  that 
Moore’s law and the “need for speed” were due to become irrelevant. The claims that computing  and 
new distributed architectures had become as fast as necessary making further processor enhancements 
moot reminds us of the often quoted Charles H. Duell (Commissioner, U.S. patent office, 1899), who was 
reputed to have claimed, “Everything that can be invented has been invented.” Before we move on to 
look  at  Intel’s  Nehalem  (Intel®  Xeon®  Processor  5500  Series)  and  why  there  are  still  numerous 
applications  that  will  benefit  from  increased  speed  and  capacity  its  worth  considering  one  last  law  – 
Parkinson’s law. Originally coined in an essay published in The Economist in 1955, Cyril Parkinson stated 
that “Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.” Having taken on numerous guises 
there are variations clearly appropriate for the computing & communications industry. “Data expands to 
fill  the  space  available  for  storage,”  or  “Network  traffic  will  fill  available  bandwidth”  and  of  course 
“applications will grow to exceed the capabilities of processor performance.” 
                                                                                                              
                                                                                        www.advantech.com/NCG

We  can  all  think  of  examples,  both  personally  and  professionally,  where  computer  systems  we  have 
owned  that  previously  performed  just  fine,  ground  to  a  halt  when  new  and  “upgraded”  versions  of 
application  and  operating  system  software  were  installed.  That  just  shows  Parkinson’s  law  at  work, 
luckily  we  have  Moore’s  law  that  comes  to  the  rescue!  There  will  always  be  a  new  application  that 
requires extra horse power to work at its best and our need to enable greater functionality in smaller 
footprints  has  no  end  in  sight.  Hence  the  welcome  introduction  of  the  next  evolutionary  step  in 
processor  technology.  With  up  to  four  high  performance  cores,  greater  parallelism  for  increased 
instructions  per  cycle,  simultaneous  multi‐threading,  potentially  doubling  the  number  of  executing 
threads per processor, and built in application accelerators, Intel’s Tylersburg‐EP/Nehalem‐EP Platform 
provides an abundance of speed, power and bandwidth for the most demanding of applications. 

Tylersburg­EP/Nehalem­EP Platform 
The  Intel®  Core™  i7  processor,  the  first  example  of  Intel’s  new  microarchitecture  (Nehalem),  hit  the 
streets  last  year  with  screaming  performance.  Based  on  the  same  Intel®  45nm  hi‐k  metal  gate  silicon 
technology, there is now a range of extended life processors ‐ the Nehalem EP. With 4 primary versions 
including  two  with  low  power  envelopes,  the  Tylersburg‐EP/Nehalem‐EP  Platform  with  its  parallel 
processing  engine,  represents  the  perfect  marriage  of  superb  performance,  scalability  and  energy 
efficiency. The Intel® Microarchitecture (Nehalem) includes: 
 
     Dynamic  scalability,  managed  cores,  threads,  cache,  interfaces,  and  power  for  energy‐efficient 
       performance on demand.  
     
     Intel®  Turbo  Boost  Technology  delivers  additional 
       performance  automatically  when  needed  by  taking 
       advantage  of  the  processor's  power  and  thermal 
       headroom.  This  enables  increased  performance  of 
       both multi‐threaded and single‐threaded workloads.  
 
     Intel®  Hyper‐Threading  Technology  brings  high‐
       performance applications into mainstream computing 
       with  1‐16+  threads  optimized  for  a  new  generation 
       multi‐core processor architecture.  
 
                                                                          Figure 1. Intel®Turbo Boost Technology 

                                                         Design and performance scalability for complex, 
                                                            performance hungry application with support for 
                                                            dual and quad cores and up to 16+ threads with 
                                                            Intel®  Hyper‐Threading  Technology  (Intel®  HT 
                                                            Technology),  and  scalable  cache  sizes,  system 
                                                            interconnects,  and  integrated  memory

         and  high‐speed  point‐to‐point  interconnects  to  unleash  the  performance  of  future  versions  of 
         next‐generation Intel® multi‐core processors.  
 
       An  Integrated  Memory  Controller  supports  high‐speed,  three‐channel  DDR3  memory. 
        By  eliminating the front‐side bus (FSB) found in previous chips and by taking advantage of DDR3 
        memory  the  new  on‐die  memory  controller  enables  higher  capacity  (to  96GB),  higher 
        performance,  and  lower  power  than  DDR2‐based  systems.   The  new  architecture  significantly 
        reduces memory latency and memory bandwidth is boosted to up to 25.6 GB/s per CPU. 
 
       Multi‐level shared cache improves performance and efficiency by reducing latency to frequently 
           used data.  
                        
The  Tylersburg‐EP/Nehalem‐EP  Platform  comprises  the  Intel®  Xeon®  Processor  5500  series  processors 
along with the  Intel® 5520 chipset or 36D I/O hub with 36 PCIe 2.0 lanes. The 5500 series has 4 versions; 
the E5504 (dual core) and E5540 (quad core) both in 80W packages, and for power efficiency the L5518 
and L5508 rated at 60W and 38W respectively, both with quad cores.  
 
All of the Nehalem EP 5500 series processors have extended life support, however the L5518 and L5508 
both have High Tcase for constant performance during  temperature excursions making them perfect for 
NEBs Level 3 and ATCA certifications. The performance, flexibility, low power and packaging of the 5500 
series  makes  them  the  perfect  choice  for  demanding  Storage,  Medical,  Security,  and  Communications 
Infrastructure applications. 
 
Multi  core  designs  don’t  in  themselves  enable  greater  performance  unless  you  can  feed  and  manage 
them efficiently and optimize software execution to gain every  last ounce of benefit from those extra 
cores. The Intel® Xeon® 5500 series processors have a number of innovative enhancements that deliver 
on the promise of multi core execution. 
 
 Greater Parallelism increases the amount of instructions that can be run “out of order.” This enables 
       more  simultaneous  processing  and  overlap  latency.  To  be  able  to  identify  more  independent 
       operations  that  can  be  run  in  parallel,  Intel  increased  the  size  of  the  out‐of‐order  window  and 
       scheduler, giving them a wider window from which to look for these operations. Intel also increased 
       the size of the other buffers in the core to ensure they wouldn’t become a limiting factor. 
        
 Simultaneous  multi‐threading  (SMT)  for  enabling  a  more  energy  efficient  means  of  increasing 
       performance for multi‐threaded workloads. The next generation microarchitecture’s SMT capability 
       enables  running  two  simultaneous  threads  per  core—an  amazing  eight  simultaneous  threads  per 
       quad‐core processor and 16 simultaneous threads for dual‐processor quad‐core designs.  
        
 Application  Targeted  Accelerators  extend  the  capabilities  of  Intel®  architecture  by  adding 
       performance‐optimized, low‐latency, lower power fixed‐function accelerators on the processor die 
       to  benefit  specific  applications.  There  are  seven  Application  Targeted  Accelerators  included  in  the 
       next generation microarchitecture providing new string and text processing instructions to improve 
       performance  of  string  and  text  processing  operations.  For  example,  they  enable  parsing  of  XML 
       strings and text at a much higher speed. These Application Targeted Accelerators will be useful for 
       lexing, tokenizing, regular expression evaluation, virus scanning, and intrusion. 

                                                                                                              
                                                                                        www.advantech.com/NCG

End­to­End Hardware Virtualization 
Intel has made significant enhancements in the area of next‐generation Intel® Virtualization Technology 
by adding new hardware‐assist capabilities across all elements in the processing platform: 
 
• In the Processor:  
         Improvements to Intel® VT‐x provides hardware‐assisted page‐table management, allowing the 
         guest OS more direct access to the hardware and reducing compute‐intensive software 
         translation from the VMM or Virtual Machine Monitor. Intel® VT‐x also includes capabilities for 
         flexible workload migration and performance optimization. 
          
• In the Chipset:  
         Intel® VT‐d helps speed data movement and eliminates much of the performance overhead by 
         giving designated virtual machines their own dedicated I/O devices, thus reducing the overhead 
         of the VMM in managing I/O traffic. 
          
• And last but not least Virtualization has been carried through to the Network Adapter where:  
         Intel® VT‐c further enhances I/O solutions by integrating extensive hardware assists into the I/O 
         devices used to connect servers to the core network, storage infrastructure and other external 
         devices. By performing routing functions to and from virtual machines in dedicated network 
         silicon, Intel® VT‐c speeds delivery and reduces the load on the Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) 
         and server processors, providing up to two times the throughput of non‐hardware‐assisted 
         devices. 
                    
All of this is great news for networking and telecom systems where packet processing takes place over 
multiple  network  interfaces  and  can  take  full  advantage  of  end‐to‐end  hardware  virtualization  to  
maximize I/O performance. 
 

Getting the most out of 10 GigE 
 
The design enhancements in Intel’s new 82599 10 Gigabit Ethernet controller play a main role in end‐to‐
end  network  performance  and  throughput.  Compared  to  the  previous  generation  Intel®  82598,  the 
Intel® 82599 is packed with new and improved features contributing to up to 2.5 times improvement in 
LAN throughput. Advantech’s latest platforms based on the Intel® Xeon®processor 5500 series provide 
the architectural elements, such as higher processing power, new local memory architecture, and faster 
PCI  Express  2.0  I/O  interface  bus,  to  enable  increased  levels  of  10GbE  scalability.    Corresponding 
hardware optimizations in the Intel® 82599 include a new PCI Express 2.0 interface (5 Gbps) to improve 
the entire data path as well as intelligent queue support (VMDq) optimized for multi‐core processors.  
 
The controller itself is a 6 watt single‐chip, dual‐port 10GbE implementation in a 25x25 mm package. It 
helps  to  reduce  BOM  cost  and  design  complexity  by  integrating  serial  10GbE  PHYs  including  SFP+ 
support.  Wide  internal  data  paths  eliminate  performance  bottlenecks  by  efficiently  handling  large 
address  and  data  words.  The  controller  also  includes  advanced  interrupt‐handling  features  and  uses 
efficient ring‐buffer descriptor data structures, with up to 64 packet descriptors. A large on‐chip packet 
buffer maintains superior performance.  

                                                                                                         
                                                                                   www.advantech.com/NCG

With  industry‐leading  power  consumption,  a  small  footprint,  and  integrated  PHYs,  the  controller  is 
ideally  suited  for  ATCA  blades  like  the  Advantech  MIC‐5320  and  for  mezzanine  card  implementations 
used on Advantech’s FWA‐6500. 
 
The  Intel®  Tylersburg‐EP/Nehalem‐EP  Platform  enables  the  next  step  up  for  architects,  engineers  and 
product  marketers  alike.  Through  the  utilization  of  processors  bridging  multiple  generations, 
performance  levels  and  price  points,  building  a  compatible  and  scalable  full  range  solution  becomes 
even  easier.  Advantech  can  supply  pre‐packaged  compact  servers  and  ATCA  blades  covering  the  full 
spectrum, leveraging the full advantage of software compatibility and greater scalability.

backed up  by a 4 channel SAS RAID  controller that makes the  blade equally  suitable for control plane 
applications that require disk IO with RAID and failover support. 
 
The mid size AMC bay supports more than just mass storage AMCs. With support for PCIe x4 gen 2 as 
well  as  base  fabric  channels  and  telco  clocks  interfaces,  it  opens  up  possibilities  for  high  speed  IO 
interface  integration,  telco  backhaul  interface  modules  and  co‐processing  engines.  In  addition  to 
utilizing  the  chipset’s  RASUM  features,  redundant  firmware  hubs  and  onboard  USB  disks,  BIOS  and 
firmware enhancements to support CMOS backup, override and HPM.1 upgradeability make this blade a 
true carrier grade solution.

Advantech Platforms For 10 Gig E Networking On Xeon 5500 V1

  • 1. Xx        Advantech Platforms for 10 GigE networking  on Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series   While  we  have  numerous  methods  of  measuring  performance  in  terms  of  absolute  values  it  is  also  a  matter  of  perspective  and  relativity.  Driving  at  70mph  on  the  freeway  is  very  fast  relative  to  our  own  walking or even running pace but pales in comparison to a 200mph race car, let alone a Mach2 fighter  plane. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link and as such we are always striving to improve that  “weak link.” So it is with any computer or network system platform. When we had to deal with a mere  10  or  even  100Mbps  on  the  network  side,  processors  had  no  issue  keeping  up.  As  we  moved  to  GigE  with first 1 and now 10 GigE the weak link or bottleneck would switch between processing capacity and  network bandwidth. With the introduction of Intel's latest‐generation microarchitecture (Nehalem) and  the Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series we are witnessing the next step in the evolution of parallel multi‐ core  processing,  providing  unprecedented  performance  and  dynamic  scalability.  Enabling  the  next  generation of packaged application server platforms and ATCA blades, Nehalem processors will be there  to  “suck  up”  that  10  GigE  traffic.  The  perfect  solution  for  performance  hungry,  high  bandwidth,  deep  packet inspection, security and other content aware applications.  Processor Evolution  When  it  comes  to  examining  the  evolution  of  processor  performance  or  for  that  matter  most  of  the  technology  that  now  surrounds  us  Moore’s  law  comes  to  mind.  Gordon  Moore,  a  co‐founder  of  Intel,  observed back in 1965 that the number of transistors that could be crammed into an integrated circuit  was  doubling  approximately  every  two  years.  We  have  made  great  leaps  in  our  processor  innovation  and  no  longer  simply  add  more  and  more  resistors;  however,  Moore’s  law  has  been  expanded  and  is  often used to describe the overall evolution of performance, size, capacity and price. For example a PC  will halve in price for a technology that may be 2 years old and the price for latest models remains static  while performance and capacities double. The Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series is the fastest yet.  How Fast is Fast Enough  Why faster and faster, won’t there be a point in time when we have all the speed we need? Over the  years  numerous  industry  pundits  and  economists  have  claimed,  on  more  than  one  occasion,  that  Moore’s law and the “need for speed” were due to become irrelevant. The claims that computing  and  new distributed architectures had become as fast as necessary making further processor enhancements  moot reminds us of the often quoted Charles H. Duell (Commissioner, U.S. patent office, 1899), who was  reputed to have claimed, “Everything that can be invented has been invented.” Before we move on to  look  at  Intel’s  Nehalem  (Intel®  Xeon®  Processor  5500  Series)  and  why  there  are  still  numerous  applications  that  will  benefit  from  increased  speed  and  capacity  its  worth  considering  one  last  law  –  Parkinson’s law. Originally coined in an essay published in The Economist in 1955, Cyril Parkinson stated  that “Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.” Having taken on numerous guises  there are variations clearly appropriate for the computing & communications industry. “Data expands to  fill  the  space  available  for  storage,”  or  “Network  traffic  will  fill  available  bandwidth”  and  of  course  “applications will grow to exceed the capabilities of processor performance.”    www.advantech.com/NCG   
  • 2. Xx          We  can  all  think  of  examples,  both  personally  and  professionally,  where  computer  systems  we  have  owned  that  previously  performed  just  fine,  ground  to  a  halt  when  new  and  “upgraded”  versions  of  application  and  operating  system  software  were  installed.  That  just  shows  Parkinson’s  law  at  work,  luckily  we  have  Moore’s  law  that  comes  to  the  rescue!  There  will  always  be  a  new  application  that  requires extra horse power to work at its best and our need to enable greater functionality in smaller  footprints  has  no  end  in  sight.  Hence  the  welcome  introduction  of  the  next  evolutionary  step  in  processor  technology.  With  up  to  four  high  performance  cores,  greater  parallelism  for  increased  instructions  per  cycle,  simultaneous  multi‐threading,  potentially  doubling  the  number  of  executing  threads per processor, and built in application accelerators, Intel’s Tylersburg‐EP/Nehalem‐EP Platform  provides an abundance of speed, power and bandwidth for the most demanding of applications.  Tylersburg­EP/Nehalem­EP Platform  The  Intel®  Core™  i7  processor,  the  first  example  of  Intel’s  new  microarchitecture  (Nehalem),  hit  the  streets  last  year  with  screaming  performance.  Based  on  the  same  Intel®  45nm  hi‐k  metal  gate  silicon  technology, there is now a range of extended life processors ‐ the Nehalem EP. With 4 primary versions  including  two  with  low  power  envelopes,  the  Tylersburg‐EP/Nehalem‐EP  Platform  with  its  parallel  processing  engine,  represents  the  perfect  marriage  of  superb  performance,  scalability  and  energy  efficiency. The Intel® Microarchitecture (Nehalem) includes:     Dynamic  scalability,  managed  cores,  threads,  cache,  interfaces,  and  power  for  energy‐efficient  performance on demand.      Intel®  Turbo  Boost  Technology  delivers  additional  performance  automatically  when  needed  by  taking  advantage  of  the  processor's  power  and  thermal  headroom.  This  enables  increased  performance  of  both multi‐threaded and single‐threaded workloads.      Intel®  Hyper‐Threading  Technology  brings  high‐ performance applications into mainstream computing  with  1‐16+  threads  optimized  for  a  new  generation  multi‐core processor architecture.     Figure 1. Intel®Turbo Boost Technology   Design and performance scalability for complex,  performance hungry application with support for  dual and quad cores and up to 16+ threads with  Intel®  Hyper‐Threading  Technology  (Intel®  HT  Technology),  and  scalable  cache  sizes,  system  interconnects,  and  integrated  memory  controllers.      Scalable  shared  memory  of  Intel®  QuickPath  technology features memory distributed to each  processor  with  integrated  memory  controllers  Figure 2. Intel® Hyper‐Threading Technology    www.advantech.com/NCG   
  • 3. Xx        and  high‐speed  point‐to‐point  interconnects  to  unleash  the  performance  of  future  versions  of  next‐generation Intel® multi‐core processors.      An  Integrated  Memory  Controller  supports  high‐speed,  three‐channel  DDR3  memory.  By  eliminating the front‐side bus (FSB) found in previous chips and by taking advantage of DDR3  memory  the  new  on‐die  memory  controller  enables  higher  capacity  (to  96GB),  higher  performance,  and  lower  power  than  DDR2‐based  systems.   The  new  architecture  significantly  reduces memory latency and memory bandwidth is boosted to up to 25.6 GB/s per CPU.     Multi‐level shared cache improves performance and efficiency by reducing latency to frequently  used data.                            The  Tylersburg‐EP/Nehalem‐EP  Platform  comprises  the  Intel®  Xeon®  Processor  5500  series  processors  along with the  Intel® 5520 chipset or 36D I/O hub with 36 PCIe 2.0 lanes. The 5500 series has 4 versions;  the E5504 (dual core) and E5540 (quad core) both in 80W packages, and for power efficiency the L5518  and L5508 rated at 60W and 38W respectively, both with quad cores.     All of the Nehalem EP 5500 series processors have extended life support, however the L5518 and L5508  both have High Tcase for constant performance during  temperature excursions making them perfect for  NEBs Level 3 and ATCA certifications. The performance, flexibility, low power and packaging of the 5500  series  makes  them  the  perfect  choice  for  demanding  Storage,  Medical,  Security,  and  Communications  Infrastructure applications.    Multi  core  designs  don’t  in  themselves  enable  greater  performance  unless  you  can  feed  and  manage  them efficiently and optimize software execution to gain every  last ounce of benefit from those extra  cores. The Intel® Xeon® 5500 series processors have a number of innovative enhancements that deliver  on the promise of multi core execution.     Greater Parallelism increases the amount of instructions that can be run “out of order.” This enables  more  simultaneous  processing  and  overlap  latency.  To  be  able  to  identify  more  independent  operations  that  can  be  run  in  parallel,  Intel  increased  the  size  of  the  out‐of‐order  window  and  scheduler, giving them a wider window from which to look for these operations. Intel also increased  the size of the other buffers in the core to ensure they wouldn’t become a limiting factor.     Simultaneous  multi‐threading  (SMT)  for  enabling  a  more  energy  efficient  means  of  increasing  performance for multi‐threaded workloads. The next generation microarchitecture’s SMT capability  enables  running  two  simultaneous  threads  per  core—an  amazing  eight  simultaneous  threads  per  quad‐core processor and 16 simultaneous threads for dual‐processor quad‐core designs.      Application  Targeted  Accelerators  extend  the  capabilities  of  Intel®  architecture  by  adding  performance‐optimized, low‐latency, lower power fixed‐function accelerators on the processor die  to  benefit  specific  applications.  There  are  seven  Application  Targeted  Accelerators  included  in  the  next generation microarchitecture providing new string and text processing instructions to improve  performance  of  string  and  text  processing  operations.  For  example,  they  enable  parsing  of  XML  strings and text at a much higher speed. These Application Targeted Accelerators will be useful for  lexing, tokenizing, regular expression evaluation, virus scanning, and intrusion.    www.advantech.com/NCG   
  • 4. Xx        End­to­End Hardware Virtualization  Intel has made significant enhancements in the area of next‐generation Intel® Virtualization Technology  by adding new hardware‐assist capabilities across all elements in the processing platform:    • In the Processor:   Improvements to Intel® VT‐x provides hardware‐assisted page‐table management, allowing the  guest OS more direct access to the hardware and reducing compute‐intensive software  translation from the VMM or Virtual Machine Monitor. Intel® VT‐x also includes capabilities for  flexible workload migration and performance optimization.    • In the Chipset:   Intel® VT‐d helps speed data movement and eliminates much of the performance overhead by  giving designated virtual machines their own dedicated I/O devices, thus reducing the overhead  of the VMM in managing I/O traffic.    • And last but not least Virtualization has been carried through to the Network Adapter where:   Intel® VT‐c further enhances I/O solutions by integrating extensive hardware assists into the I/O  devices used to connect servers to the core network, storage infrastructure and other external  devices. By performing routing functions to and from virtual machines in dedicated network  silicon, Intel® VT‐c speeds delivery and reduces the load on the Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM)  and server processors, providing up to two times the throughput of non‐hardware‐assisted  devices.    All of this is great news for networking and telecom systems where packet processing takes place over  multiple  network  interfaces  and  can  take  full  advantage  of  end‐to‐end  hardware  virtualization  to   maximize I/O performance.    Getting the most out of 10 GigE    The design enhancements in Intel’s new 82599 10 Gigabit Ethernet controller play a main role in end‐to‐ end  network  performance  and  throughput.  Compared  to  the  previous  generation  Intel®  82598,  the  Intel® 82599 is packed with new and improved features contributing to up to 2.5 times improvement in  LAN throughput. Advantech’s latest platforms based on the Intel® Xeon®processor 5500 series provide  the architectural elements, such as higher processing power, new local memory architecture, and faster  PCI  Express  2.0  I/O  interface  bus,  to  enable  increased  levels  of  10GbE  scalability.    Corresponding  hardware optimizations in the Intel® 82599 include a new PCI Express 2.0 interface (5 Gbps) to improve  the entire data path as well as intelligent queue support (VMDq) optimized for multi‐core processors.     The controller itself is a 6 watt single‐chip, dual‐port 10GbE implementation in a 25x25 mm package. It  helps  to  reduce  BOM  cost  and  design  complexity  by  integrating  serial  10GbE  PHYs  including  SFP+  support.  Wide  internal  data  paths  eliminate  performance  bottlenecks  by  efficiently  handling  large  address  and  data  words.  The  controller  also  includes  advanced  interrupt‐handling  features  and  uses  efficient ring‐buffer descriptor data structures, with up to 64 packet descriptors. A large on‐chip packet  buffer maintains superior performance.     www.advantech.com/NCG
