  • Converged adapter handles multiple traffic types efficiently

Intel X710-DA4 Quad-Port 10Gbps Adapter

The Intel X710-DA4 is a converged network adapter built for servers that require four 10Gbps Ethernet connections. It installs in a PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot and uses SFP+ transceivers for fibre or direct-attach cabling. This card targets administrators upgrading rack or tower servers to 10GbE without occupying multiple expansion slots.

PCIe 3.0 x8 bandwidth and SFP+ cabling

The adapter operates over a PCI Express 3.0 x8 electrical interface, which caps total throughput at the lane speed of that generation. Each of the four ports runs at 10Gbps, so simultaneous line-rate traffic on all ports can saturate the host bus. SFP+ modules and cables must be sourced separately and matched to the required reach and media type.

Four 10Gbps ports in one x8 slot

The defining specification is the quad-port 10Gbps density delivered through a single PCIe 3.0 x8 connector. Buyers needing only one or two 10GbE links, or systems limited to x4 slots, will not utilise the full capability of this adapter. Servers with available x8 slots and a need for port density are the correct match.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the X710-DA4 over a dual-port 10Gbps card?

The X710-DA4 provides four SFP+ ports on a single PCIe 3.0 x8 slot, letting you run four 10Gbps links where a dual-port card only provides two.

What does the 10Gbps rating deliver inside a server?

Each port supports a 10Gbps Ethernet connection, giving the adapter four independent 10Gbps links for storage, virtualisation or high-throughput workloads.

How does the PCIe 3.0 x8 interface affect throughput?

The PCIe 3.0 x8 slot supplies enough bandwidth for all four 10Gbps ports to operate at line rate simultaneously.
