Intel Quality that Generates Trust

At the heart of an infrastructure are the servers that store files, run applications and host groupware. Quality is built into Intel® server products with extensive manufacturing line quality requirements, comprehensive product testing and broad certification. The extensive validation processes help Intel® solutions perform according to specification, and as a customers' business grows, Intel® servers allow technology transition to extend product life. Intel's dedication to server product quality and validation helps users offer reliable solutions that work with future technology needs, support compatibility for required operating systems and save time and expense. Intel® server platforms combine the most popular configurations of Intel® server building blocks into one package. Intel® server platforms combine Intel® server boards, chassis and other components to help simplify the ordering, stocking and building processes. Server Platforms Based on Intel® Xeon™ Processors With Intel® multi-port PRO gigabit server adapters, IT managers can segment networks to increase uptime, reliability and performance. Adding gigabit Ethernet server ports increases flexibility when connecting servers to the network. The result is higher overall network availability and throughput. Intel® PRO gigabit server adapters are compatible with any existing network connections on new or existing servers. Intel® Advanced Networking Services (ANS) is part of the software that ships with Intel® PRO server adapters. It provides compatibility with all brands of network adapters for Link Aggregation, Load Balancing and setting up Fault Tolerant teams. So, users can upgrade their existing Fast Ethernet connections by adding an Intel® PRO gigabit server adapter and still use any existing Fast Ethernet connections for additional throughput or backup fault tolerance. In addition, the copper based adapters can run at 10, 100 or 1000MB⁄s and work with existing switch infrastructures. "Over the past 10 years, Intel® has helped to fundamentally change the mid-tier server market segment from expensive, proprietary machines, to affordable, powerful and innovative servers based on standards. Intel has played a leading role in delivering leading edge performance and innovation at superior value."
