Description
Product Overview
The 540-11352 Dell Intel X540 DP Network Adapter is a high-performance Ethernet network card designed for enterprise-level applications. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) data rates and is compatible with both copper and fiber optic cabling. This network adapter is also equipped with an Intel I350 DP Network Daughter Card, which provides additional Ethernet connectivity options.
Ethernet Network Adapter
The 540-11352 Dell Intel X540 DP Network Adapter is a PCIe Gen2.1 x8 network adapter that provides two 10 GbE ports. This adapter is designed for use in high-performance computing environments, including data centers and cloud computing applications. It is compatible with both copper and fiber optic cabling, allowing for flexible deployment options.
The X540 DP Network Adapter supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, which enables network administrators to create virtual LANs (VLANs) for different groups of users. This feature allows for greater network segmentation and can help improve security and performance.
Another important feature of the X540 DP Network Adapter is support for IEEE 802.3x flow control. This feature helps prevent data loss by allowing the adapter to signal the sender to slow down or stop transmitting data when the receiver is unable to keep up with the data flow.
Intel I350 DP Network Daughter Card
In addition to the X540 DP Network Adapter, the 540-11352 Dell Intel X540 DP Network Adapter also includes an Intel I350 DP Network Daughter Card. This daughter card provides two additional Ethernet ports, each capable of supporting data rates up to 1 GbE.
The I350 DP Network Daughter Card is designed to work in conjunction with the X540 DP Network Adapter, providing additional Ethernet connectivity options for enterprise-level applications. This daughter card is also PCIe Gen2.1 x4 compatible, allowing it to be installed in a variety of systems.
Like the X540 DP Network Adapter, the I350 DP Network Daughter Card supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging and IEEE 802.3x flow control. This allows network administrators to create VLANs and helps prevent data loss by allowing the card to signal the sender to slow down or stop transmitting data when the receiver is unable to keep up with the data flow.
Compatibility and Support
The 540-11352 Dell Intel X540 DP Network Adapter is compatible with a wide range of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and VMware ESX. It is also compatible with a variety of Dell PowerEdge servers, including the R620, R720, R720XD, R820, T620, and M620.
The X540 DP Network Adapter and I350 DP Network Daughter Card are backed by Dell’s ProSupport services, which provide 24/7 technical support and next-business-day on-site service for critical issues. This helps ensure that your network stays up and running, even in the event of a hardware failure.
In summary, the 540-11352 Dell Intel X540 DP Network Adapter is a high-performance Ethernet network card designed for enterprise-level applications. It supports 10 GbE data rates and is compatible with both copper and fiber optic cabling. The X540 DP Network Adapter also includes an Intel I350 DP Network Daughter Card, which provides additional Ethernet connectivity options. Both the X540 DP Network Adapter and I350 DP Network Daughter Card support IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging and IEEE 802.3x flow control. The X540 DP Network Adapter and I350 DP Network Daughter Card are also backed by Dell’s ProSupport services, which provide 24/7 technical support and next-business-day on-site service for critical issues.Main Specification about the Dell 540-11352
