The HP NC370T PCI-X Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter is a high-performance, single
port, Ethernet adapter that delivers up to 1000 Mb/s Ethernet over twisted-pair (copper)

NC370T adapter has a fully integrated controller capable of auto-negotiating a link at 10,

indicators show the speed and activity of the link once it has been established.

HP ProLiant servers. In addition to features that have shipped with other server adapters, the
NC370T adapter also supports Receive Side Scaling, TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE), iSCSI,
