PRODUCT BRIEF
XtremeScale™ X2522 Family
The World’s Lowest Latency 10/25G Ethernet NIC
The Industry’s 1st Standard NIC with Hardware Security
The X2522 dual-port 10/25G Ethernet NIC is a member of the X2 family of XtremeScale products
that redefine the price/performance of standard NICs for modern data centers.
Designed from the ground up for virtualized dense server environments, Solarflare XtremeScale
X2 adapters are the most cost-effective NICs in the industry for Ethernet connectivity. At the same
time, XtremeScale acceleration provides record-breaking low latency and throughput needed
for today’s modern class of applications. X2 is the most secure standard NIC with integrated
hardware firewalls. XtremeScale X2 is the only general-purpose NIC with 2,048 Virtual NICs,
programmable packet processing engine for network off-load and real-time packet/flow capture
required by your network performance management and analytics platforms.
The Solarflare Advantage
•
Lower Cost – We invite
you to compare. The
X2522 is flat-out the most
cost-effective 10/25G
NIC.
Summary of Features and Benefits
Acceleration Services Allow Distributed Apps to Scale-Out – The challenge with distributed
apps is keeping hardware and system latency low while scaling to thousands of tasks running
across thousands of cores. The X2522 harnesses kernel bypass acceleration to deliver superior
small packet performance with hardware latency as low as one-half a microsecond. Solarflare
kernel bypass technologies include Onload™ and DPDK acceleration services, and provide
servers the headroom needed to handle more processes in the same amount of time and with
fewer servers.
•
Scale Higher – The only
standard 10/25G NIC
with half-microsecond
hardware latency, and
the ability to segment a
single NIC into thousands
of vNICs or 8x more than
competitive NICs.
Solarflare acceleration technology can also be used to build ultra-low latency NVMe all-flash
storage fabrics. X2522 NICs configured for NVMe over standard TCP provide similar performance
to NVMe fabrics based on special-purpose RDMA fabrics without the need for dedicated,
specialized network infrastructure.
Together, ultra-low
latency and ultra-scale
connectivity power a
more efficient data
center that scales higher
with more workloads
per server and/or fewer
servers.
Precision Time Stamping for Accurate Synchronization – The X2522 supports the precision
time protocol (PTP) fabric service for apps that require synchronized time stamping of packets
down to single-digit nanosecond resolution.
Protect Traffic “Inside” the Data Center by Deploying the Industry’s 1st Standard NICs with
HW Security On-Board – ServerLock™ technology inside every X2522 NIC complements firewall
perimeter security. It is now possible to scale security inside your data center by using micro-
segmentation to scale packet surveillance, filtering, cloaking and firewalling with every server.
See how the X2522
accelerates database
caching and software
load balancing up to 4X.
Real-Time Telemetry Feeds Security & Analytics – The X2522 provides real-time monitoring,
inspection, and capture of packets needed for network performance management, security
analytics, and compliance. Packet data can be forwarded to a libpcap API or saved to a file with
hardware timestamps.

•
Secure Every Server –
The first and only solution
allowing IT organizations
to deploy a layer of
security on every server
using a general-purpose
NIC.
A Platform for Micro-Segmented NIC Fabric Services – For modern data centers, X2522
lays a new foundation for NIC-based network virtualization needed for their highly distributed
applications with thousands of inter-connected web server, machine learning, and big data
workloads. X2522 is the first and only standard NIC platform that can establish ultra-scale
connectivity to thousands of virtual NICs, while at the same time providing real-time packet and
flow information. The combination of ultra-high bandwidth, ultra-low latency, ultra-scale connectivity
and packet telemetry, allows X2522 NICs to serve as the industry’s first commercial platform for
micro-segmented NIC fabric services that scale with each server, VM or container.
Network Visibility –
Only standard NICs
from Solarflare provide
valuable real-time packet
and flow data for you
to monitor, capture and
analyze.
The Most Cost Effective NICs in the Industry – Solarflare makes data center-wide deployment
of these capabilities cost-effective. Although X2522 NICs provide superior performance and the
SmartNIC-like ability to enable network services, a 10/25GbE X2 NIC from Solarflare offers a
cost advantage over comparably configured NICs from other industry players Broadcom, Intel,
and Mellanox.
