BCM95720A2003AC Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5720-2P Ethernet Server Adapter (part BCM95720A2003AC) is a dual-port 1GbE PCI Express adapter optimized for enterprise and data center environments. It leverages the field-proven BCM5720 controller to provide full line-rate performance across both ports while reducing operational costs through Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) technology.

 

This adapter supports PCI Express v2.0 with a 5 GT/s interface and includes an extensive set of stateless and virtualization offloads. Key offload capabilities include TCP/UDP/IP checksum offload, Large Send Offload, TCP Segmentation Offload, Receive Side Scaling, and Transmit Side Scaling. Virtualization features include support for VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ, enabling efficient packet processing in virtualized server environments.

 

The BCM5720-2P also supports Wake-on-LAN, jumbo frames larger than 1500 bytes, iSCSI remote boot, and PXE boot. The adapter is compatible with x86 and x64 servers and includes Broadcom Advanced Control Suite (BACS) for management. Its PCIe form factor makes it suitable for rack and tower servers requiring reliable, energy-efficient 1GbE connectivity.
