Axiom

Axiom 10GbE Dual Port SFP+ PCIe 3.0 x8 Network Card 7ZT7A00537

SKU CH-Z3SS-0DNRQ

Dual-port 10 GbE SFP+ adapter on PCIe 3.0 x8 with Intel X710-BM2 controller for virtualised server and storage workloads

  • Dual-port 10 GbE throughput for high-speed server links
  • Intel X710-BM2 controller delivers line-rate performance with low CPU usage
  • PCIe 3.0 x8 interface supports up to 8000 MB/s data transfer
  • Network virtualisation offloads for Geneve, VXLAN and NVGRE overlays
  • Includes full-height and half-height brackets for flexible rack mounting

Dual-Port 10GbE SFP+ Server Adapter

The Axiom PCIe 3.0 x8 network card adds two 10GbE SFP+ ports to compatible Lenovo servers. It uses the Intel X710-BM2 controller for reliable data-center connectivity. This new adapter targets administrators upgrading rack-mount or tower systems that need additional high-speed fibre links.

PCIe 3.0 x8 Slot With Two Bracket Options

Installation requires an open PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot and suitable SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach cables. The package includes both full-height and half-height mounting brackets so the card fits 1U or standard chassis without extra parts. It frees onboard 1GbE ports for management traffic while the dual 10GbE ports handle production workloads.

Line-Rate Throughput With Low CPU Overhead

The adapter sustains up to 8000 MB/s bulk transfers while keeping processor utilisation low thanks to hardware offloads for Geneve, VXLAN and NVGRE overlays. Intelligent NAS and SAN offloads accelerate NFS, SMB, iSCSI and FCoE traffic during extended sessions. A 64-byte packet engine maintains wire-speed forwarding under continuous load rather than brief bursts.

Questions about this item

What throughput limit appears first when the Intel X710-BM2 controller runs at 10 GbE line rate?

The card reaches 10 GbE line rate with 64-byte frames, so small-packet processing is the first sustained-use limit.

How much power and heat does the PCIe 3.0 x8 adapter generate during all-day operation?

The Intel X710-BM2 controller is designed for low CPU utilisation at line rate, keeping power draw and thermal output modest in a server chassis.

Which SFP+ transceivers and cables must I already own to use the dual ports?

The card provides two SFP+ cages; you need compatible 10 GbE SFP+ modules or direct-attach cables for each port you intend to use.
