The 540-BBBB Dell Dual Port X520 DA 10-GB Server Adapter Ethernet PCIe Network Interface Card is a hardware component that is designed to provide high-speed network connectivity to a server. This network interface card (NIC) is used in data centers and enterprise-level environments where network bandwidth and reliability are critical. In this article, we will explain the features, benefits, and technical specifications of the 540-BBBB Dell Dual Port X520 DA 10-GB Server Adapter Ethernet PCIe Network Interface Card.
Features of 540-BBBB Dell Dual PortThe 540-BBBB Dell Dual Port X520 DA 10-GB Server Adapter Ethernet PCIe Network Interface Card comes with a range of features that make it suitable for high-performance network environments. These features include:
- Dual-port connectivity: The network interface card has two ports, which allows for redundant network connections, load balancing, and failover protection.
- 10GB network speeds: The 540-BBBB Dell Dual Port X520 DA 10-GB Server Adapter Ethernet PCIe Network Interface Card supports network speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second, which is ten times faster than standard gigabit Ethernet.
- PCIe 2.0 interface: The network interface card uses the PCIe 2.0 interface, which provides faster data transfer rates and reduces latency compared to other interfaces.
- Low-profile design: The network interface card has a low-profile design, which allows it to be used in a variety of server configurations, including rack-mounted servers.
The 540-BBBB Dell Dual Port X520 DA 10-GB Server Adapter Ethernet PCIe Network Interface Card provides a range of benefits for organizations that require high-speed network connectivity. These benefits include:
- Improved network performance: The network interface card's 10GB network speeds and PCIe 2.0 interface provide faster data transfer rates and lower latency, which can improve network performance and reduce data transfer times.
- Redundant network connections: The dual-port design of the network interface card allows for redundant network connections, which can help to ensure network availability in the event of a network failure.
- Load balancing: The network interface card's dual-port design also enables load balancing, which distributes network traffic evenly across both ports. This can help to improve network performance and reduce network congestion.
- Failover protection: The dual-port design of the network interface card also provides failover protection. If one network port fails, the other port can automatically take over, which can help to ensure network availability.
- Scalability: The 540-BBBB Dell Dual Port X520 DA 10-GB Server Adapter Ethernet PCIe Network Interface Card is scalable, which means that organizations can add additional network interface cards to their servers to increase network bandwidth as their needs grow.
