APTNC - OCP NIC 3.0 Network Adapters

Featuring a convenient thumbscrew pull-tab design to simplify maintenance and upgrades, the APTNC series NICs are also designed on a compact form factor, and yet are configured with high port density to optimize connectivity options. In addition, the APTNC series helps ensure network connection and business continuity with its built-in network bypass function to optimize uptime, fail-safe network connectivity, as well as network security, resilience and threat prevention.

The Portwell APTNC series encompasses APTNC-OX2R-BP which is compliant with OCP NIC 3.0 SFF (76 (W) x 115 (D) x 11.50 (H) mm); the ETSFF-form factor APTNC-OX4S-BP that is designed with extended depth and height upon OCP NIC 3.0 SFF; and the ESFF-form factor APTNC-O24R-BP, which is designed with extended depth upon OCP NIC 3.0 SFF. More specifically, the ETSFF and ESFF form factors, Portwell’s own innovative design, deliver more design application flexibility and higher port density in addition to the OCP NIC 3.0’s already high scalability and sustainability.
