Silicom’s dual port fiber 10 Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter is a PCI-Express X8 network interface card that contains two fiber (SR)10 Gigabit Ethernet ports on a PCI-E adapter.

The Silicom’s dual port fiber (SR) 10 Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter is targeted to inline network system that maintains network connectivity when system fails.

Silicom’s dual port fiber 10 Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter supports Normal, Bypass and Disconnect modes. In Normal mode, the ports are independent interfaces.

In Bypas*ode, all packets received from one port are tran*itted to the adjacent port. In Disconnect mode, the adapter simulates switch / rout cable disconnection.

In Bypas*ode, the connecti* of the Ethernet ports are disconnected from the system and switched over to the other port to create a crossed connection loop-back between the Ethernet ports.
