Commex HTX-based content-aware 10GbE network adaptor – Vulcan SE HT6210

Commex Technologies announced its Vulcan SE HT6210 content-aware dual-channel 10GbE Network Interface Card (NIC) for the HP ProLiant DL785 G5 server which connects the network via two ports of 10GbE, directly to the multiple processing cores on the HP ProLiant DL785 G5 server.

By applying Deep Packet Inspection, Commex Vulcan SE leverages content awareness to distribute and balance network data processing amongst the multiple processing cores. The Vulcan SE content-aware dual-channel 10GbE NIC leverages the AMD Direct Connect Architecture by connecting directly to a Quad-Core AMD Opteron processor via a 16-lane HyperTransport interface.

The result is true multicore scalability of network traffic performance. The combination of the HP ProLiant DL785 G5 server supporting up to 32 AMD Opteron processor cores and the Commex Vulcan SE NIC allows for simultaneous high processing performance and scalable network traffic throughput.

Commex Vulcan SE HT6210 Network Interface Card is currently available to customers for use with HP ProLiant DL785 G5 as well as HP ProLiant DL165 G5 servers.
