The Dell 540-BCZX Quad Port Intel E810 10/25 GbE SFP28 PCI-E Full Height Network Adapter is a network card that is designed to provide high-speed network connectivity for Dell servers. It is a quad-port network adapter that supports both 10 GbE and 25 GbE SFP28 connections, and is compatible with a variety of Dell PowerEdge servers. In this article, we will discuss the features and benefits of the Dell 540-BCZX network adapter in detail.
Quad Port DesignThe Dell 540-BCZX network adapter features a quad-port design, which means that it has four individual network ports that can be used simultaneously. This allows for multiple network connections to be established at the same time, providing increased bandwidth and improved network performance. The four network ports on the Dell 540-BCZX are each capable of supporting both 10 GbE and 25 GbE SFP28 connections, providing a high degree of flexibility in terms of network connectivity.
Intel E810 ControllerThe Dell 540-BCZX network adapter is powered by an Intel E810 controller, which is a high-performance network interface controller (NIC). The Intel E810 controller is designed to deliver high-speed network connectivity for enterprise-level applications, and is capable of supporting speeds of up to 25 Gbps per port. The controller also features advanced virtualization capabilities, which allow for the creation of multiple virtual network interfaces within a single physical port.
PCI-E InterfaceThe Dell 540-BCZX network adapter is designed to be installed in a PCI-E (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) slot on a Dell PowerEdge server. The PCI-E interface is a high-speed serial expansion bus that provides fast data transfer rates between the network adapter and the server's CPU. The Dell 540-BCZX network adapter is designed to be installed in a full-height PCI-E slot, which provides additional stability and support for the network adapter.
SFP28 ConnectivityThe Dell 540-BCZX network adapter supports both 10 GbE and 25 GbE SFP28 connectivity options. SFP28 (Small Form-factor Pluggable 28) is a compact, hot-pluggable transceiver module that is used for high-speed data transfer over fiber optic cables. SFP28 modules are designed to support data rates of up to 25 Gbps, making them ideal for high-bandwidth applications.
Full Height Design
The Dell 540-BCZX network adapter is designed to be installed in a full-height PCI-E slot. Full-height network adapters are typically larger than their low-profile counterparts, which allows for larger heat sinks and better cooling performance. This can be especially important for high-performance network adapters like the Dell 540-BCZX, which generate a significant amount of heat during operation.
Overall, the Dell 540-BCZX network adapter is designed to be compatible with a wide range of Dell PowerEdge servers. Some of the servers that are compatible with the Dell 540-BCZX include the PowerEdge R740, R740XD, R640, R540, R440, R7425, R7515, R6515, R7525, and C6420. Compatibility with a wide range of servers allows for greater flexibility in terms of deployment options and can help to reduce costs by allowing for the reuse of existing server hardware.
