ExaNIC X10
The ExaBlaze ExaNIC is a 10Gbps PCI Express network card interface card specifically optimised for low latency environments. While initially conceived and built for use in latency-sensitive financial applications such as high frequency trading, the ExaNIC has appeal that extends to any environment where latency is key.
