1. Introduction

Introducing the DN-10180 - a high-performance network interface

card that is designed to provide reliable and efficient network

connectivity for your server or workstation. This card is fully

compliant with PCI Express Specification Revision 3.0, 1.1, and 2.0,

and supports link rates of 2.5, 5.0, or 8.0GT/s at x8.

The DN-10180 features auto-negotiation capabilities that allow it to

operate at x8, x4, x2, or x1, making it compatible with a wide range

of devices. It also supports MSI/MSI-X mechanisms for efficient

interrupt handling and dual-Port 25G, 10G, or 1Gb/s SFP+

connectivity for flexible network deployment.

This network interface card is designed to support a wide range of

industry standards, including IEEE802.3by, 25G supporting all FEC

modes, IEEE802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet, IEEE802.3ap based

auto-negotiation and KR startup, and IEEE802.3ad, IEEE802.1ax,

IEEE802.1Q, IEEE802.1P, IEEE802.1Qaz, IEEE802.1Qbb,

IEEE802.1Qbg, IEEE1588V2.

The DN-10180 also supports jumbo frame support up to 9.6KB,

independent NC-SI SMBus interface, independent stand-by and

wake-on-Lan signals, hardware-based reliable transport, collective

operation offloads, and PeerDirect RDMA (aka GPUDirect

communication acceleration).

Other key features of the DN-10180 include 64/66 encoding,

extended reliable connected transport, dynamically connected

transport, RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE), TCP/UDP/IP

stateless offload, LSO.LRO. checksum offload, and hardware offload

of encapsulation and decapsulation of NVGRE and VXLAN overlay

networks.

This network interface card also supports SR-IOV, Multi-function,

Enhanced QoS, VMware support, and up to 256 virtual functions and

8 physical functions per port. It offers guaranteed QoS for VMs and is

compatible with OpenMPI, IBM PE, OSU MPI, and Intel MPI

protocols.

The DN-10180 is designed to support remote boot over Ethernet,

iSCSI, PXE, and UEFI and is compatible with a wide range of operating

systems, including FreeBSD, Linux 5.x and above, VMware

5.5/6.0/6.5/6.7, Windows Server 2008/2012/2016/2019, and

Win7/Win8/Win8.1/Win10 32 or 64bit.

Overall, the DN-10180 is a high-performance network interface card

that offers reliable and efficient network connectivity for your server

or workstation. It is designed to meet the demands of modern data

centers and is compatible with a wide range of devices and operating

systems.
