he FC EN15 and EN16 are the same adapter. FC EN15 is a full-height adapter, and FC EN16 is a low-profile adapter. The names of these two adapters are:
FC EN15:PCIe3 4-port 10 GbE SR Adapter
FC EN16:PCIe3 LPX 4-port 10 GbE SR Adapter
The PCIe3 4-port 10 GbE SR Adapter is aPCI Express(PCIe) generation 3, x8, short form-factor adapter. The adapter provides four 10 Gb small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) optical SR transceiver ports, as shown inFigure 1. The ports have little connector (LC) duplex-type connectors and utilize shortwave laser optics and MMF-850nm fiber cabling. SeeCablesfor more information about the optical cables. The adapter supports the Ethernet network interface controller (NIC) function and also providesSR-IOV NICsupport.SR-IOV capabilityfor the NIC function is supported with the appropriate firmware and operating system level for any of the four ports. Enabling theSR-IOVfunction requires an HMC.
The adapter provides the following features:
Four 10 Gb ports that can function in the NIC mode
AIX®Network Installation Management (NIM) support
The adapter supports interrupt moderation to deliver increased performance while significantly reducing processor utilization
The adapter supports multiple media-access control (MAC) per interface.
The adapter supports integrated media-access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY).
The adapter supports the following standards for the different ports and functions:
IEEE 802.3ae in the 10 GbE ports
802.3ab in the 1 GbE ports
Ether II and IEEE 802.3 for encapsulated frames
802.1p for setting up priority levels in tagged VLAN frames
802.1Q for VLAN tagging
802.3x for flow control
802.3ad for load-balancing and failover
IEEE 802.3ad and 802.3 for link aggregation
The adapter provides message signal interrupts (MSI), MSI-X, and support of legacy pin interrupts.
The adapter supports jumbo frames up to 9.6 KB.
The adapter supports TCP checksum offload transmission control protocol (TCP), user datagram protocol (UDP), TCP segmentation Offload (TSO) for IPv4 and IPv6.
Supports TCP segmentation or large send offload
Supports EEPROM-SPI and single EEPROM
