Introducing Intel® Ethernet E835 Controllers and Adapters
Following Intel’s recent announcement of new data center innovations -including Intel Xeon 6+ processors, Intel Ethernet E835 networking solutions, and AI accelerator roadmap updates -we take a closer look at one of the key technologies behind next-generation infrastructure and how Intel Ethernet E835 controllers and network adapters help organizations build scalable, efficient, and AI-ready networks.
Intel Ethernet E835: High-Efficiency Networking for Next-Gen Infrastructure
As AI, cloud, and distributed workloads continue to scale, networking has become a critical determinant of overall infrastructure performance and efficiency. The Intel Ethernet E835 controllers and network adapters are designed to deliver performant, power-efficient connectivity for modern data center, enterprise, edge, and AI environments.
The Intel Ethernet E835 provides the scalability and efficiency required for next-generation infrastructure while maintaining industry-leading performance-per-watt. Designed for dense, virtualized deployments, the E835 helps reduce energy consumption and operational costs without compromising throughput or reliability.
Key highlights include:
- Flexible Connectivity: Delivers 200 GbE throughput with multiple controller and adapter configurations supporting data rates from 10GbE to 200GbE. The 835 supports a broad range of port configurations, including 2x25GbE, 4x25GbE, 2x100GbE, and 1x200GbE, with additional configurations enabled through the Intel Ethernet Port Configuration Tool (EPCT).
- Industry-leading Power Efficiency: Engineered for high performance-per-watt, Intel E835-CQDA2 network adapter delivers up to 1.9 times higher performance per watt than the comparable NVIDIA ConnectX-6 DX (CX614106A) and 1.4 times higher than Broadcom BCM957508-P2100G, lowering energy consumption and operational costs of modern distributed environments.
- Network Optimization: Implements RDMA (RoCEv2/iWARP) to reduce CPU utilization and maximize efficiency – and Dynamic Device Personalization to streamline packet processing and improve application performance.
- Security & Management: Integrates Hardware Root of Trust and signed SPDM with DMTF-based manageability for secure, deterministic operations.
- Broad Compatibility: Supports multiple operating systems including Linux, ESXi and Windows.
- 10+ Year Lifecycle: Built for long-term reliability and support.
With broad support from industry leaders -including Cisco, Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and Supermicro – the Intel Ethernet E835 provides an efficient and manageable networking fabric. From AI training to enterprise cloud services, the E835 delivers the scalability, reliability and high-efficiency features required for the next generation of networking.
