BFKK 10Gb Dual-Port SFP+ Network Card Broadcom BCM57810S PCIe 2.0 x8

SKU CH-SCX2-TNPNB

Dual-port SFP+ 10 Gb Ethernet adapter with Broadcom BCM57810S controller on PCIe 2.0 x8 for Windows Server, Linux and VMware

  • Dual 10 Gb SFP+ ports deliver high-throughput fibre connectivity
  • Broadcom BCM57810S controller improves reliability and interoperability
  • PCIe 2.0 x8 interface at 5.0 GT/s provides ample host bandwidth
  • Supports Windows Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, Linux, VMware and Citrix
  • Includes low-profile and full-height brackets for flexible server installation

Dual-Port 10Gb SFP+ Adapter

This dual-port 10Gb SFP+ network card adds two fibre Ethernet ports to a server or workstation through a PCI Express 2.0 x8 slot. It is built around the Broadcom BCM57810S controller for reliable interoperability. The bracket kit includes both low-profile and full-height brackets for standard and ultra-thin chassis.

Bandwidth Headroom and Limits

Each port delivers 10Gb/s throughput, so the card handles aggregated 20Gb/s traffic when both links are active. The PCIe 2.0 x8 host interface supplies up to 5.0GT/s per lane, which can become the bottleneck under sustained line-rate loads on both ports. Buyers who need more than two 10Gb connections or a faster host bus should consider other options.

PCIe 2.0 x8 Host Interface

The card requires a PCI Express 2.0 x8 slot and is mechanically compatible with x16 slots. Driver support covers Windows Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, Linux, VMware and Citrix, with PXE, iSCSI, VMDq, Jumbo Frames and SR-IOV features. Systems without a PCIe 2.0 x8 or x16 slot cannot use this adapter.

Questions about this item

Will the PCIe 2.0 x8 card run in my older motherboard that only has a PCIe x16 slot?

Yes, the Broadcom BCM57810S controller uses a PCI Express 2.0 x8 interface that is compatible with x16 slots, so it will function in that older motherboard.

How can I verify the dual-port SFP+ adapter is operating correctly after installation?

Check that both SFP+ ports show a 10 Gb link status in the OS network manager and confirm driver loading for Windows Server 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, Linux or VMware.

Does the box include SFP+ transceivers and cables, or must I buy them separately?

The package contains the network card, a driver CD, low-profile and full-height brackets; SFP+ transceivers and fibre cables are not included and must be purchased separately.
