PCIe2 4-port 1 GbE adapter (FC 5260, FC 5899, FC EL4L, and FC EL4M; CCIN 576F)
Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) 5260, FC
5899, FC EL4L, and EL4M adapters.
Overview
FC 5260, FC EL4M, FC 5899, and FC EL4L are the same adapter with different feature codes. FC 5260 and
EL4M are low-profile adapters and the FC 5899 and EL4L are full-height adapters.
These adapters provide four 1-Gb Ethernet ports that can be configured to run at 1000 megabits per
second (Mbps) (or 1 gigabit per second (Gbps)), 100 Mbps, or 10 Mbps. The adapter connects to a
network that uses unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable for distances of up to 100 meters (328.08 feet).
The adapter supports AIX
conforms to the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T standard. The adapter supports jumbo frames when running
at the 1000 Mbps speed.
Each of the Ethernet ports can be connected by using:
• CAT5e (or later) UTP cables for 1000 Mbps network attachment
• CAT5 or CAT3 UTP cables for 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps network attachment
The cables are attached to the copper RJ45 connectors. Each port is independent of one another and
supports full-duplex or half-duplex. The half-duplex mode does not support a speed of 1000 Mbps.
The adapter provides the following features:
• Supports interrupt moderation to deliver increased performance while significantly reducing processor
utilization
• Supports dual port operation in almost any PCIe slot, except x1
• Supports auto-negotiation, full-duplex only
• Supports integrated media-access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY)
• Supports Fast EtherChannel (FEC) with the existing software
• Supports gigabit EtherChannel (GEC) with the existing software
• Supports IEEE 802.3ad (Link Aggregation control protocol)
• Supports IEEE 802.1Q VLANs
• Supports IEEE 802.3 z, ab, u, x flow control support
• Supports IEEE 802.1p
• Supports IEEE 802.3ab for TX
• Supports TCP checksum offload transmission control protocol (TCP), user datagram protocol (UDP),
Internet Protocol (IP) for IPv4 and IPv6
• Supports TCP segmentation or large send offload
• Supports EEPROM-SPI and single EEPROM
• Supports interrupt levels INTA and MSI
• Hardware certifications FCC B, UL, CE, VCCI, BSMI, CTICK, MIC
• Network Controller (MAC) Intel 82571EB
