Dell G218C dual-port server adapter

The Dell G218C is a genuine Broadcom-based network interface card that adds two wired Gigabit Ethernet connections through a single PCI Express x4 slot. It is built for servers and workstations that need extra LAN ports for segmentation, failover or dedicated management traffic.

PCI Express x4 slot requirement

The card installs in any available PCI Express x4 lane and negotiates at up to 1 Gbps per port. Systems limited to x1 slots cannot accommodate this adapter, so the expansion slot width is the deciding compatibility factor.

Two independent 1 Gbps links

Each RJ-45 port delivers a full 1000 Mbps connection, giving 2 Gbps of aggregate throughput when both links are active. The adapter saturates at line-rate Gigabit speeds and cannot exceed the 1 Gbps per port ceiling.

Questions about this item

What real-world throughput does the 1 Gbps rating deliver in a server?

The dual-port card provides up to 1000 Mbps per port over standard copper cabling, so each RJ-45 connection can sustain gigabit speeds in typical server workloads.

What does the PCI Express x4 slot requirement mean for bandwidth headroom?

A PCIe x4 slot supplies ample lane bandwidth for two simultaneous gigabit links, so the interface will not bottleneck the 1 Gbps ports.

What physical slot and bracket space does the G218C need to install?

The card fits a full-height PCI Express x4 slot and uses a standard bracket with two RJ-45 ports for rear-panel mounting.
