Innodisk releases what is claims is the world’s first 10GbE LAN module in M.2 form factor.

Innodisk has announced an all-new EGPL-T101 M.2 2280 10GbE LAN module, a 10GbE LAN designed in M.2 form factor, featuring flexible integration and excellent compatibility with existing network infrastructure for crucial backward compatibility.

Looking into markets ranging from surveillance to gaming, networking, and industrial uses, the demand for high-speed LAN solutions is promising. Interference issues are also occurring more often as the size of the PCIe form factor cannot fit in the smaller design of IPC platforms nowadays. The M.2 10GbE LAN module is designed to meet the demand for increased speed and reduced size, high-speed LAN solutions.

Innodisk’s EGPL-T101 is the first M.2 2280-to-single 10GbE Base-T Ethernet module which is also the smallest 10GbE expansion solution available today and ten times faster than standard Ethernet. By supporting PCI Express Gen 3×2, the EGPL-T101 module can provide sufficient bandwidth for one 10GbE LAN port suitable for server and industrial applications’ high-speed network demands.

As a high-speed LAN solution, EGPL-T101 boasts flexible integration. Its standard RJ45 LAN port on a tiny daughterboard provides an easy solution for upgrading to a 10GbE network using existing Cat6/6A copper cables. The EGPL-T101 also features excellent compatibility with its six network standards supported in 10/5/2.5/1Gbps and 100/10Mbps, providing excellent backward compatibility with existing network infrastructure. Lastly, the EGPL-T101 features high-performance computing (HPC) which is ten times faster than the widely used Gigabit Ethernet with low power consumption.
