Hardware - Alacritech

Alacritech is the world’s leading supplier of TCP Offload Engine (TOE) solutions that enable the highest performance and efficiency in networked systems. Alacritech’s complete line of Accelerators is based on the company’s patented SLIC Technology® architecture to optimize data delivery in servers, network-attached storage and iSCSI storage devices.

Integrating an Alacritech Accelerator into a Windows-based server provides transparent acceleration for all networked applications. File servers equipped with TNICs from Alacritech frequently exceed the performance of NIC-based systems with double the number of processors.

Why a server TCP Offload Engine (TOE) NIC is best for you:

A TNIC provides quick and painless acceleration of server data delivery
Installing a TNIC is as simple as installing a NIC
TNICs benefit all TCP protocols - HTTP, NFS, CIFS, iSCSI, NDMP, etc.
A TNIC extends the life of a server
TNICs offload network processing so applications run faster
No special networking equipment or software is required to use a TNIC
Client response times are improved with a TNIC equipped server
Unmodified network applications are accelerated by TNICs
TNICs fully support industry standard link aggregation and failover
TNICs are more cost effective than all other server upgrades

Gigabit TNIC for Servers and Storage

Full duplex 10/100/1000Base-T copper or 1000Base-SX fiber network interface card (NIC) with high-performance TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) ASIC (PCI Express)

ACCELERATOR BENEFITS
