Quad-port 10Gbps SFP+ adapter for servers

This Silicom network card adds four 10Gbps SFP+ ports through a single PCI Express 3.0 x8 slot. It targets servers and high-end appliances that need multiple high-speed Ethernet links without using extra expansion slots.

PCIe 3.0 x8 lane requirement

The card needs a physical and electrical PCI Express 3.0 x8 connection to deliver full 10Gbps throughput on all four ports simultaneously. A slot wired for fewer lanes will limit aggregate bandwidth and may prevent the adapter from initialising correctly.

Standard half-height bracket install

Installation follows normal server-adapter procedure: power down, insert into a compatible x8 slot, secure the bracket, then attach SFP+ transceivers and cables. The most common issue is inserting the card into an x4 or x1 slot, which reduces available bandwidth and can cause link negotiation failures.

Questions about this item

What does the 10 Gbps rating mean when the card is installed in a server?

Each SFP+ port delivers up to 10 Gbps of Ethernet bandwidth, so the adapter provides four independent 10 Gbps connections for high-throughput networking.

What does the PCIe 3.0 x8 interface limit in practice?

The PCIe 3.0 x8 slot supplies enough lane bandwidth to run all four 10 Gbps ports at line rate without host-bus saturation.

What slot and bracket space does the PE310G4SPI9L-XR-CX3 need to fit?

It requires a PCIe x8 or wider slot and a standard full-height bracket opening for the four SFP+ cages.
