10Gbps dual-port server adapter

The Solarflare SFN7022F is a 10Gbps PCI-Express 3.0 network card built for enterprise and cloud servers. It uses new Flareon controller silicon to extend Solarflare's low-latency architecture. On-board application support allows individual server configuration within the network. This adapter targets high-performance environments needing software-defined networking control.

Suits SDN deployments; not for basic connectivity

This card fits administrators who need API-driven remote enablement of network services. It serves data centres that configure per-server applications through a software-defined networking layer. Buyers who only need a simple 10GbE link without SDN orchestration or on-board application flexibility should consider a standard adapter instead.

PCI-Express 3.0 x8 interface requirement

The adapter connects through a PCI-Express 3.0 slot and requires an x8 electrical link for full 10Gbps throughput per port. Servers limited to x4 electrical width will constrain bandwidth. Verify the motherboard or riser provides an x8-capable PCIe 3.0 slot before purchase.

Questions about this item

What is the first bottleneck that appears when the SFN7022F runs at 10Gbps continuously?

The PCI‑Express 3.0 x8 link caps sustained throughput at the lane limit, so the bus becomes the limiting factor before the controller does.

How much heat and noise does the SFN7022F produce during all‑day operation?

The card is a passive, fanless design; it relies on server chassis airflow and adds no audible noise of its own.

Which slot and chassis does the SFN7022F require to function?

It needs an available PCI‑Express 3.0 x8 (or wider) slot inside a server or workstation with adequate internal airflow.
