The IBM OCE11102-N2-X is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet Virtual Fabric Adapter III (VFA) designed for IBM System x servers. This PCIe-based network adapter delivers 10GbE connectivity with support for converged I/O workloads, combining Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) traffic on a single physical link. The adapter supports up to 128 virtual adapters per port, enabling efficient multi-tenancy and resource allocation in virtualized environments. It is compatible with IBM System x3550 M2, M3, and M4 series servers, as well as other x86 systems with compatible PCIe slots.
This adapter is ideal for data center deployments requiring consolidated networking infrastructure, high-bandwidth database operations, and SAN connectivity without dedicated HBA cards. The OCE11102-N2-X supports standard Ethernet frame sizes and advanced features including VLAN tagging, priority-based flow control, and energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE). Typical applications include virtualized server clusters, high-performance computing, and enterprise storage networks.
