ThinkSystem
Product Guide
The Intel Ethernet Connection X722 is a network controller embedded into the Intel C624 "Lewisburg" PCH
chipset of Lenovo ThinkSystem servers. The controller connects to available 10 GbE and 1 Gigabit
Ethernet LAN-on-motherboard (LOM) adapter cards and onboard connectors to provide a comprehensive
1 GbE / 10 GbE networking solution for ThinkSystem customers.
ThinkSystem servers support either 10 Gb Ethernet copper or optical connections, or Gigabit Ethernet
connections depending on the server model.
The following figure shows the ThinkSystem 10Gb 4-port SFP+ LOM adapter which provides four SFP+
cages for optical or direct-attach copper (DAC) connectivity.

embedded in Intel Xeon Processor Scalable Family chipset and offer the flexibility advantages of a PCIe
adapter while supporting integrated networking features, such as Wake-on-LAN and direct connectivity to
the XClarity Controller management processor for NC-SI-compliant systems management.
