Page 2: Introduction
N-TGE-SFP-02 User Guide 1. Introduction The N-TGE-SFP-02 is a 2-port PCIe bus fiber NIC that supports a 1Gbps/10Gbps link. The open SFP slots can be used with 1000Base-X SFPs or 10GBase-SR/LR SFP+ modules. The NIC fully complies with IEEE 802.3ae and IEEE 802.3z standards. - Page 3 Transition Networks N-TGE-SFP-02 User Guide Feature Descriptions MR-IOV (Multi-Root IOV) allows I/O PCI Express to share resources among different VMs on different physical machines. MSI (Message Signaled Interrupts) can allocate 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 interrupts. MSI-X allows up to 2048 interrupts.
