Introduction
The N-TGE-SFP-02 is a 2-port PCIe bus fiber NIC that supports a 1Gbps/10Gbps link. The open SFP slots can
be used with 1000Base-X SFPs or 10GBase-SR/LR SFP+ modules. The NIC fully complies with IEEE 802.3ae
and IEEE 802.3z standards. It provides up to 20 Gbps fullduplex bandwidth capacity to support high-end servers.
It is suitable for data center, SMB and Cloud computing applications. Two LED indicators per port (LINK/ACT and
SPEED) on the bracket provide board link and activity status.

Teaming options in Windows are available using the Intel PROSet Adapter Utility. Adapter teaming with
Intel® Advanced Network Services (Intel® ANS) uses an intermediate driver to group multiple physical
ports. You can use teaming to add fault tolerance, load balancing, and link aggregation features to a
group of ports.
