*We used two dual-port NICs to achieve our 4 x 25Gb NIC configuration.
Compared to enabling the same bandwidth
capability using four 25Gb NICs
Using the synthetic iPerf test tool to compare two solutions:
Š A Dell PowerEdge R750 server with
Broadcom®
57508™
Dual Port 100Gb
network interface card
Š The same PowerEdge R750 server
with four 25Gb NICs*
We found using a single 100Gb
Broadcom 57508 NIC offered
Up to 2.3x the Gbps of a four-NIC solution
Plus, the 100Gb Broadcom 57508 NIC solution offered
100% bandwidth consistency for multiple data streams
