The ATTO FastFrame N312 is a high-performance dual-port 100Gb Ethernet SmartNIC designed to deliver exceptional network throughput and ultra-low latency for today's most demanding data center applications.
Built with a PCIe 3.0 x16 interface, this adapter provides the bandwidth necessary to fully utilize 100Gb Ethernet connections, making it an ideal solution for AI workloads, GPU computing environments, and mission-critical network infrastructure.
What sets the N312 apart is its inclusion of QSFP28 optical modules with purchase, eliminating the need for separate transceiver acquisition and ensuring immediate deployment readiness.
Versatile Connectivity Options
The FastFrame N312 supports multiple Ethernet speeds including 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE through its dual QSFP28 ports.
This flexibility allows organizations to deploy the adapter in various network environments and seamlessly upgrade bandwidth as needs evolve without replacing hardware.
The dual-port configuration enables redundant connections or link aggregation for enhanced reliability and performance.
Advanced Offload Capabilities
ATTO has engineered the N312 with comprehensive hardware offload technologies to minimize CPU utilization and maximize application performance.
The adapter supports RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE), enabling direct memory access between systems with minimal protocol overhead and latency as low as 1μs.
Additional offloads include TCP/UDP/IP stateless operations, NVMe over Fabrics target acceleration (at 100Gb speeds), and built-in hardware offloads for specialized workloads.
Cross-Platform Compatibility
Unlike many high-performance NICs that limit operating system support, the FastFrame N312 is compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux environments.
This cross-platform flexibility makes the adapter ideal for heterogeneous data centers and specialized computing environments that require macOS support alongside traditional server operating systems.
ATTO provides optimized drivers for each supported platform to ensure consistent performance across operating systems.
Ideal for AI and GPU Computing
The exceptional bandwidth and low latency characteristics of the N312 make it particularly well-suited for artificial intelligence and GPU computing applications.
These workloads typically generate massive data transfers that can bottleneck on lesser network adapters, limiting overall system performance.
By providing full 100Gb/s throughput per port with minimal latency, the FastFrame N312 ensures that network connectivity doesn't become a constraint in compute-intensive environments.
Enterprise-Grade Reliability
ATTO has designed the FastFrame N312 with enterprise reliability in mind, backing the adapter with a comprehensive three-year warranty.
The low-profile form factor ensures compatibility with space-constrained server configurations while maintaining full performance capabilities.
RoHS compliance demonstrates ATTO's commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable product design.
