General InformationManufacturer: Intel CorporationBrand Name: IntelManufacturer Part Number: X550T2Product Series: X550Product Model: X550-T2Product Name: Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X550-T2Marketing Information: OverviewAutonegotiation between 1GbE, 2.5GbE, 5GbE, and 10GbE providesthe necessary backwards compatibility required for a smooth transitionand easy migration to 10GbE.The X550 is a low-cost option for deploying 10GbE in your data centerbecause it uses CAT6 and CAT6A cabling - standard cabling for manydata centers. Copper cabling's flexible reach from 1 meter to 100 metersalso supports Top of Rack (ToR), Middle of Row (MoR), and End of Row(EoR) network architectures.This adapter also reduces cost and power through its single-chipsolution. The adapter uses the Intel® Ethernet Controller X550,with integrated MAC and PHY. Integration translates to lowerpower and means no more active heatsink reducing the per-portpower consumption.Integration also equals lower
