IBM 5772 – 10 Gigabit Ethernet-LR PCI Express Adapt

Detailed Description:

The IBM 5772 is a high-end network adapter designed to provide 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over long-range (LR) links using a PCI Express interface. It is engineered for situations that demand high bandwidth and long-distance communication, utilizing single-mode fiber to achieve distances significantly greater than those possible with short-range systems. The adapter’s 10 Gbps capability ensures that data-intensive applications and infrastructure, such as large data centers, cloud services, and backhaul networks, can operate at peak efficiency with minimal latency and maximum throughput. By supporting long-range communication, this adapter is particularly valuable for enterprises with widespread operations, needing to connect facilities over large geographical distances. The adoption of the PCI Express interface ensures compatibility with modern server platforms and maximizes the throughput between the network adapter and the server system. The IBM 5772 is a crucial component for organizations aiming to enhance their network infrastructure with high-speed, long-distance communication capabilities, ensuring reliable and efficient operations across extended operations.
