Scheda di rete INTEL X710-T2L Dual-Port 10GbE PCIe (X710T2LG1P5)

Intel X710-T2L Dual-port 10GbE PCIe (X710T2LG1P5) is a dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet network adapter intended for servers and workstations requiring high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity. The adapter provides two 10GbE SFP+ ports over a standard PCI Express interface and integrates Intel network features to support virtualization environments and advanced packet offloads. It is built to deliver consistent throughput for data center, storage and high-performance networking tasks.

Advantages

The adapter offers dual 10 Gigabit ports in a single PCIe card, enabling consolidated high-speed network links while minimizing system slot usage. Native support for SFP+ modules allows flexible optical or copper transceiver choices. Intel networking technology provides hardware offloads and virtualization support that reduce CPU load and improve packet processing efficiency. The card is suitable for 24/7 operation in server-class systems and is compatible with standard PCIe slots used in a wide range of motherboards.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch uplinks in data centers
• Virtualized hosts and hypervisor network backplanes
• High-speed storage networks and iSCSI targets
• Low-latency trading platforms and performance-sensitive applications
• Workstations requiring 10GbE connectivity for large file transfers

Key specifications

• Interface: PCI Express standard slot (PCIe)
• Ports: Two 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports
• Link speed: 10 Gbps per port
• Form factor: Low-profile PCIe card (fits server/workstation slots)
• Primary use: High-throughput, low-latency networking for servers and workstations

How to use

Install the adapter into an appropriate PCIe slot on a powered-off server or workstation following the system manufacturer's instructions. Insert compatible SFP+ transceivers and connect to the network fabric or switch using suitable cables or fiber. Install or update the Intel network drivers and firmware provided by the system vendor or Intel to enable full feature support. Configure network settings and any virtualization or offload features within the operating system or hypervisor management tools to match your network design.

Recommendations

Use certified SFP+ transceivers that match link distance and media type requirements, keep firmware and drivers current for security and performance, and place the card in a PCIe slot providing sufficient lanes and bandwidth for 10GbE operation.
