Why Choose This Product?

• Two 10GbE ports from one adapter: Expands network connectivity while using a single PCIe card position.
• Strong upgrade path: Multi-speed support lets the adapter operate with 10GbE as well as 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100Mbps infrastructure. 
• Enterprise-oriented Intel controller: The Intel X540 chipset provides a mature platform for high-speed Ethernet and virtualization-related networking features.
• High aggregate bandwidth: Up to 20Gbps full-duplex capability suits data-intensive server, workstation and storage workloads.
• Network-management flexibility: VLAN tagging, link aggregation, PXE and jumbo-frame support address common enterprise networking requirements.
• Chassis deployment flexibility: The supplied low-profile bracket supports installation in compatible compact-form-factor systems as well as standard-profile chassis.
• Simplified copper infrastructure: RJ-45 10GBase-T connectivity can integrate with compatible twisted-pair Ethernet infrastructure rather than requiring fiber-only connections.
• Procurement-ready support: TAA compliance, a 2-year warranty and manufacturer technical support add lifecycle value for business deployments.
