The Intelligent Way to Connect

the industry’s second-generation 10 Gigabit

Ethernet adapter—enables more productive

networks with the fastest Ethernet connectivity

available. The Intel PRO/10GbE LR Server

Adapter delivers industry-leading performance

to bandwidth-intensive applications using a

64-bit 10GbE controller. High-speed server

connectivity—once reserved for costly pro-

prietary technologies such as high-performance

computing clusters and grid-based computing—

can now be achieved with the industry-standard

Intel PRO/10GbE LR Server Adapter.

The IEEE 802.3ae* 10 Gigabit Ethernet

standard extends single-mode fiber distances

to 10 km at 10 Gbps line speeds. Using

the Intel PRO/10GbE LR Server Adapter,

enterprises can cost-effectively expand

campus-wide connectivity and take control

of their corporate networks with privately

owned fiber that eliminates costly leased lines.

And the Intel PRO/10GbE LR Server Adapter

makes it possible for global companies to

decrease critical data center back-up time

to provide maximum network availability.

The Intel PRO/10GbE LR Server Adapter

helps improve network productivity, extend

reach, and eliminate costly proprietary

networking technologies, while enabling

deployment of standards-compliant

Ethernet connectivity based on IEEE

802.3ae 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard.
