| NetXen stands at the forefront of a major shift in technology in the enterprise datacenter. Blade servers, server consolidation, and the convergence of network fabrics at 10 Gigabit speeds are driving an exponential increase in both data volumes and complexity. Against this backdrop of escalating network processing demands, IT managers must also address the challenge of system power consumption and cooling, and integrating more flexibility into their datacenters. NetXen offers a unique solution called the Intelligent NIC® designed specifically to address these needs.
NetXen Intelligent NICs are the industry's first programmable, multi-protocol networking solution designed for volume 10GbE markets. The Intelligent NIC silicon and board-level products are ideally suited for enterprises seeking cost-effective, high-performance solutions that alleviate critical IT infrastructure problems while scaling datacenter performance. The patented NetXen chip architecture delivers advanced capabilities for the next generation of server networking, substantially improving datacenter performance and agility.
NetXen, Inc. is a privately held company that manufactures intelligent 10-Gigabit Ethernet networking chips that advance enterprise datacenter performance and agility. Founded in February 2002 by chip design veteran Govind Kizhepat, the company is headquartered in Santa Clara, Calif., with an office in Pune, India. NetXen’s protocol- and OS-agnostic Intelligent NICs are designed for volume 10-Gigabit deployments and are targeted at server, storage, security and networking systems.

NetXen 10Gb Ethernet Expansion Card for IBM BladeCenter
NetXen's 10 Gigabit Ethernet blade networking solution provides the high performance, scalability and virtualization capabilities required by next-generation data center environments. NetXen's award-winning 10 Gigabit Ethernet Intelligent NIC® technology has a dramatic impact on virtualization capabilities. Not only does it provide bandwidth sufficient to support a far larger number of high-performance virtual machines, but also intelligent 10Gb Ethernet networking helps enhance data center agility, energy efficiency and improve throughput while reducing host CPU utilization. This allows overall system performance to scale with workloads.
Deploying Intelligent NIC cards from NetXen in combination with IBM BladeCenter H takes virtualization to the next level by enabling server, storage, and I/O virtualization across multiple chassis of blades. By bringing the industry's first 10Gb Ethernet blade solutions to market, IBM and NetXen are uniquely positioned to drive the transformation of data center networks to next-generation Ethernet technology.
Benefits are:
- The ability to increase bandwidth and throughput for demanding applications
- Investment protection through compatibility, interoperability and scalability
- Upgrade of speed and fabric consolidation in the datacenter
- Higher network performance while lowering datacenter power and cooling costs
