IBM 94Y5167 I340-T4 quad port server adapter

Quad-port server adapter for multi-network servers

The IBM 94Y5167 I340-T4 adds four Gigabit Ethernet ports to a server through a single PCIe slot. It suits administrators who need separate networks for management, storage, backup and virtual machines without occupying multiple expansion slots.

Four independent ports share one bus for moderate

Each port handles standard Gigabit traffic and the adapter aggregates them across the host interface. The design works well for typical LAN segmentation and vSwitch uplinks, while sustained line-rate loads on all four ports simultaneously will saturate the upstream bus bandwidth.

Refurbished condition suits cost-sensitive

This unit is sold as refurbished hardware, making it appropriate for lab environments, secondary clusters or replacement of failed cards in existing farms. Buyers who require new-in-box hardware with full manufacturer warranty coverage should look elsewhere.
