Axiom PCIe x8 10Gbps Dual Port Copper Network Adapter

SKU CH-BNMJ-P6T88

Dual-port 10 Gbps copper adapter connects servers via PCIe x8 for high-speed networking

  • PCIe 2.0 x8 host interface enables high-throughput server connectivity
  • Dual RJ-45 ports deliver 10 Gbps copper links for dense deployments
  • Twisted-pair media support leverages existing Cat6a cabling investment
  • 100 % factory testing validates reliability for mission-critical workloads
  • Optimised for virtualization to consolidate I/O and reduce operating expense

Dual 10 Gbps copper ports

The Axiom PCIe x8 10Gbps Dual Port Copper Network Adapter adds two RJ-45 connections to a server or workstation. It targets IT teams who need 10Base-T throughput over twisted-pair cabling without moving to fibre. The card fits a PCI Express 2.0 x8 slot and is 100-percent tested for reliability in high-transaction environments.

Fits a PCIe 2.0 x8 slot

Installation requires an available PCI Express 2.0 lane configuration that can negotiate an x8 link. The two copper ports consolidate data and storage I/O onto a single adapter, freeing additional expansion slots for other controllers. The design leverages existing twisted-pair infrastructure, so no new cabling plant is needed for deployment.

Low-profile thermal envelope

The adapter draws power solely from the PCIe bus and uses a passive heatsink for cooling. No onboard fan means silent operation in noise-sensitive racks. Typical power draw stays within the PCIe 2.0 slot specification, avoiding the need for auxiliary power connectors or dedicated airflow planning.

Questions about this item

Will the PCIe 2.0 x8 host interface limit 10 Gbps throughput on both ports at the same time?

The adapter uses a PCI Express 2.0 x8 host interface which provides enough bandwidth for dual 10 Gbps copper ports under sustained load.

How much heat and power should I expect when both RJ-45 ports run 10 Gbps all day?

The card draws power from the PCIe slot and uses passive cooling; typical sustained operation stays within standard slot limits without a fan.

What cabling and switch ports do I need to use the two twisted-pair connectors?

Each port is an RJ-45 connector for twisted-pair copper; you need Cat6a or better patch cables and a 10 Gbps-capable switch port for each link.
