AOC-STG-i2T
The 10GBase-T Ethernet Adapter for Advanced Datacenters
The Supermicro AOC-STG-i2T is the most cost effective 10GBase-T adapter solution in today’s data center marketplace. The
auto-negotiation feature between 1GbE and 10GbE provided by the AOC-STG-i2T offers users the backwards compatibility
they need for a smooth transition to 10GbE. It reliably addresses the demanding needs of bandwidth-intensive applications
at a fraction of the cost of traditional 10GbE adapters by utilizing cost-effective RJ-45 connectors at a much longer cabling
distance. The Supermicro AOC-STG-i2T 10GbE adapter is truly a best-in-class solution for advanced data centers.
