Today's data center requires cost-effective and flexible solutions that can simplify access to resources across complex operating environments. Servers require solutions to access networked resources and also provide high performance and high reliability.

The Flex System EN4172 2-port 10 Gb Ethernet Adapter for Intel processor-based compute nodes can scale up to eight virtual ports and supports Ethernet protocol. The EN4172 is based on industry-standard PCIe architecture and offers the flexibility to operate as a Virtual NIC adapter. Because this adapter can support eight virtual NICs, you see benefits in cost, power/cooling, and data center footprint by deploying less hardware.
