Silicom’s Quad Port Copper Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter is a PCI-Express X8 network interface. Silicom’s Quad Port Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter supports Normal, Bypass and Disconnect modes.

In Normal mode, the ports are independent interfaces. In Bypass mode, all packets received from one port are transmitted to adjacent port. In Disconnect mode, the adapter simulates switch / rout cable disconnection.

Description

Silicom’s Quad Port Copper Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter is a PCI-Express X8 network interface.
Silicom’s Quad Port Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter supports Normal, Bypass and Disconnect modes.
In Normal mode, the ports are independent interfaces. In Bypass mode, all packets received from one port are transmitted to adjacent port. In Disconnect mode, the adapter simulates switch / rout cable disconnection.
In Bypass mode, the connections of the Ethernet network ports are disconnected from the interfaces and switched over to the other port to create a crossed connection loop-back between the Ethernet ports. Hence, in bypass mode all packets received from one port are transmitted to other port and vice versa. This feature enables to bypass a failed system and provides maximum up time for the network.
In Disconnect mode, the adapter simulates switch / router cable disconnection.
In Disconnect mode, the switch / router does not detect link partner of the adapter.
Silicom’s Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapters include an on board WDT (Watch Dog Timer) controller. The adapter’s software drivers or software application can write commands to the on board WDT controller.The adapter’s software drivers, WDT controller and the Bypass circuitry provide an interface that control and manage the mode of the adapter.
Silicom’s Quad Port Copper Gigabit Ethernet Bypass server adapter is based on Intel 82575 Dual port Gigabit Ethernet MAC+PHY of Intel Controller.
