Upgrade your server's connectivity with the NICPCIE-2QSFP-40G Network Interface Card. Powered by the robust Intel XL710-QDA2 controller, this dual-port 40GbE NIC is engineered for high-performance servers and demanding data centre applications. It seamlessly integrates into any PCI Express x8 slot, unleashing blazing-fast 40 Gigabit network speeds to eliminate I/O bottlenecks and enhance system efficiency for mission-critical operations.
This adapter is optimised for modern networking environments, featuring hardware acceleration that offloads tasks like TCP/UDP/IP checksum calculations and TCP segmentation from the host processor. This intelligent offloading capability frees up valuable CPU resources, allowing your server to focus on its primary applications. Whether you're managing multiple network segments or running high-powered applications, this NIC delivers the reliable, high-speed throughput your infrastructure demands.
Virtualisation performance is a key strength of the NICPCIE-2QSFP-40G. With support for Network Virtualisation offloads such as VXLAN and NVGRE, and up to 128 Virtual Device Queues (VMDq) per port, it excels at alleviating hypervisor I/O bottlenecks. This ensures smooth, efficient data flow for numerous virtual machines, making it an ideal solution for cloud and virtualized environments where performance and scalability are paramount.
Designed for flexibility and reliability, this adapter supports unified networking, allowing a single wire for both LAN and storage traffic, including NAS (SMB, NFS) and SAN (iSCSI, FCoE). The inclusion of two QSFP+ ports provides the option for redundant, fault-tolerant connections, safeguarding against network downtime. Complete with both low-profile and full-height brackets, this card offers versatile installation in a wide range of server chassis.
