The 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx Dual-port 10GB SFP Low Profile Network Interface Card is a hardware component used in computer networking. It is designed for high-speed data transfer over a network, with dual-port connectivity and support for 10 gigabit per second (Gbps) data rates. This card is low profile, meaning it takes up less space in a computer system, and it uses small form-factor pluggable (SFP) connectors, which are modular and interchangeable.
Dual-port connectivityThe 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx card has two ports, which means it can connect to two separate network devices simultaneously. This is useful for redundancy and load balancing. With redundancy, if one port or network device fails, the other port can continue to provide network connectivity. With load balancing, traffic can be distributed between the two ports to avoid congestion and improve network performance.
10 gigabit per second data rates The 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx card supports data rates of up to 10 Gbps, which is much faster than standard Ethernet connections. This allows for faster data transfer, improved network performance, and reduced latency. It is particularly useful in applications that require high bandwidth, such as data centers, cloud computing, and virtualization.
Low profile designThe 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx card has a low profile design, which means it takes up less space in a computer system. This is useful for small form-factor computers and servers, where space is limited. Low profile cards also tend to be less expensive than full-height cards, making them a cost-effective solution for certain applications.
Small Form-factor Pluggable ConnectorsThe 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx card uses small form-factor pluggable (SFP) connectors, which are modular and interchangeable. This means that different types of SFP modules can be used depending on the network topology and distance requirements. SFP modules are available for copper and fiber optic cabling, and they can support different data rates and distances.
Compatibility The 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx card is compatible with a variety of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and VMware. It is also compatible with a wide range of Dell servers and storage devices, making it a versatile and flexible solution for many different network environments.
Advanced featuresThe 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx card includes advanced features that enhance network performance and reliability. These features include:
- RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) – This allows data to be transferred directly between the network adapter and the memory of the host computer, bypassing the CPU and reducing latency and CPU overhead.
- SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization) – This allows a single network adapter to appear as multiple virtual network adapters, which can be assigned to different virtual machines or applications. This improves network performance and reduces the need for multiple physical network adapters.
- Overlay networks – This allows virtual networks to be created over physical networks, which can improve network scalability and flexibility.
Finally, the 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx Dual-port 10GB SFP Low Profile Network Interface Card is a high-performance networking solution designed for applications that require high bandwidth and low latency. Its dual-port connectivity, 10 Gbps data rates, low profile design, and small form-factor pluggable connectors make it a versatile and flexible solution for many different network environments. Its advanced features, including RDMA, SR-IOV, and overlay networks, enhance network performance and reliability. With compatibility with a wide range of operating systems and Dell servers and storage devices, the 540-BBOD Dell Mellanox Connectx card is a reliable
