Vszerda 10Gb Dual SFP+ PCIe 3.0 x8 network card

10Gb dual-port SFP+ adapter

This PCIe 3.0 x8 network card uses an Intel X710-BM2 controller to deliver two 10 gigabits per second Ethernet ports. It targets servers and workstations that need high-throughput links over fibre or direct-attach copper. The board fits both standard and low-profile chassis thanks to the included brackets. Driver support covers Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and VMware ESXi releases from 2008 onward.

Brackets and SFP+ flexibility

A full-height bracket and a low-profile bracket ship in the box, so the card installs in rackmount servers or slim desktop cases without extra parts. Each SFP+ cage accepts 10G optical modules, direct-attach cables or active optical cables, letting you choose reach and media per link. The x8 edge connector works in x8 or x16 slots, simplifying slot planning on busy motherboards.

Passive cooling and QoS offload

The Intel X710-BM2 handles Quality of Service in hardware, reducing host CPU load during congested traffic. With no onboard fan the card relies on chassis airflow, keeping acoustic output at zero. Power draw stays modest for a dual 10GbE controller, so typical server power budgets absorb it without special provisioning.
