Dual-Port 10GbE SFP+ Server Adapter

The Solar Flare SFN5122F is a dual-port 10GbE network interface card built for enterprise servers. It uses SFP+ transceivers and a PCI Express 2.0 x8 slot to deliver high-throughput Ethernet connectivity. The card targets virtualized data centres that need scalable I/O performance.

PCIe 2.0 x8 Bandwidth Limit

The adapter connects through a PCI Express 2.0 x8 interface which caps theoretical throughput at the lane speed of that generation. In a 2.0 slot the link cannot exceed the bandwidth defined by the 2.0 specification. Installing the card in a newer PCIe 3.0 or later slot will not raise the link speed beyond 2.0 rates.

Operating Temperature Ceiling 55°C

The card is rated for continuous operation from 0°C up to 55°C. Deployments in enclosures that exceed this ambient limit will require additional airflow or a different adapter. Buyers who need guaranteed operation above 55°C cannot use this part.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the single-port or dual-port version of the SFN5122F?

The SFN5122F is a dual-port adapter, providing two SFP+ connections for 10GbE links in one PCIe slot.

What does the 10GbE rating mean for actual throughput in my server?

Each port supports up to 10 gigabits per second; the PCIe 2.0 x8 host interface provides enough bandwidth to sustain line rate on both ports simultaneously.

Will the PCIe 2.0 x8 interface limit performance on a newer motherboard?

The card uses a PCI Express 2.0 x8 electrical interface, which delivers sufficient bandwidth for dual 10GbE traffic without bottlenecking the adapter.
