Adattatore di rete Sonnet G10E-SFP-2XM-E3 SFP28 10Gb Ethernet PCIe 2 porte

Sonnet G10E-SFP-2XM-E3 is a PCIe network adapter that provides two SFP28 10Gb Ethernet ports for servers and workstations with an available PCIe slot. The card enables dual 10Gb connectivity via SFP28 modules, supporting high-throughput data transfer, low-latency networking, and consolidation of virtualized environments. Its design targets professional use cases such as storage networking, virtualization traffic, and performance-sensitive applications that require reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet links.

Advantages

The adapter delivers dual 10Gb links through SFP28 interfaces, allowing flexible selection of optical or copper SFP modules to match cabling and distance requirements. As a PCIe-based solution, it integrates into standard server and workstation platforms and supports consolidated network and storage traffic. The compact two-port design conserves system expansion slots while providing sufficient bandwidth for demanding workloads.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Virtualization hosts requiring aggregated network bandwidth
• Storage area network (SAN) and backup traffic
• Low-latency trading or real-time processing applications
• Upgrading legacy systems to 10Gb Ethernet using SFP28 transceivers

Key specifications

• Interface: PCI Express x8/x16 compatible slot
• Network ports: 2 × SFP28 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports
• Supported media: SFP28 optical and compatible DAC modules (module-dependent)
• Data rate: 10 Gbps per port
• Form factor: Low-profile bracket compatible with standard server chassis

How to use

Install the Sonnet adapter into an available PCIe slot on a powered-down server or workstation, securing the card with the bracket screw. Insert compatible SFP28 modules into the SFP ports and connect fiber or DAC cables according to your network design. Power on the system and install required drivers or firmware updates provided by the operating system or vendor. Configure network settings and link aggregation or VLANs as needed through the host OS or network management tools to integrate the adapter into your infrastructure.

Recommendations

Use certified SFP28 transceivers or direct attach cables that meet your distance and media requirements; verify driver compatibility for your operating system and apply firmware updates to ensure stable operation. For best performance, populate a PCIe x8 or x16 slot and avoid shared lanes with other high-bandwidth devices. Monitor link status and error counters when deploying in latency-sensitive or high-availability environments.
