A network adapter is an essential component of a computer system that allows it to connect to a network. The Dell Dual Port Broadcom 57412 10GB Network Adapter, also known as the 540-BBUN, is a high-performance network adapter designed for use in Dell PowerEdge servers. In this article, we will explain in detail what the 540-BBUN Dell Dual Port Broadcom 57412 10GB Network Adapter is, how it works, and what its key features and benefits are.
Specification of Network AdapterThe 540-BBUN Dell Dual Port Broadcom 57412 10GB Network Adapter is a network interface card (NIC) that allows a Dell PowerEdge server to connect to a network at high speeds. It is a dual-port adapter, meaning that it has two ports that can be used to connect to separate networks or to increase network bandwidth. The 57412 model is a member of Broadcom's NetXtreme-E series of network adapters, which are designed for use in high-performance computing environments.
Working Process of 10GB Network AdapterThe 540-BBUN Dell Dual Port Broadcom 57412 10GB Network Adapter is a PCIe 3.0 x8 network card that uses the SFP+ interface to connect to the network. The SFP+ interface is a small form-factor pluggable transceiver that supports data rates of up to 10 Gbps. The 540-BBUN adapter supports both copper and fiber optic connections, allowing it to connect to a wide range of network types.
The 540-BBUN adapter uses a Broadcom BCM57412 Ethernet controller to handle network traffic. The BCM57412 is a quad-core controller that supports hardware acceleration for a range of network protocols, including TCP/IP, UDP/IP, iSCSI, and FCoE. This hardware acceleration enables the 540-BBUN adapter to deliver high levels of network performance with low latency and minimal CPU utilization.
