The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 is a dual-port 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) network interface card (NIC) designed to provide high-speed network connectivity to servers. It is designed to be installed in a PCIe slot on a compatible Dell server, and it features two 40GbE ports. In this article, we will provide a detailed overview of the features and benefits of the 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card.
High-speed Connectivity
The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card provides high-speed network connectivity to a server through its two 40GbE ports. These ports support data transfer rates of up to 40 Gbps, which makes them ideal for high-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, data backup, and cloud computing. The card also supports 10GbE and 1GbE connectivity through the use of breakout cables.
Compatibility with Dell Servers
The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card is designed to be installed in a PCIe slot on a compatible Dell server. It is compatible with a wide range of Dell PowerEdge servers, including the PowerEdge R640, R740, and R740XD. This ensures that the card can be easily integrated into existing server infrastructure, providing a seamless upgrade path for high-speed network connectivity.
Virtualization Support
The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card supports virtualization through the use of Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) technology. SR-IOV allows a single physical NIC to be shared among multiple virtual machines (VMs) in a virtualized environment. This provides greater flexibility and efficiency in the allocation of network resources, and it can help to reduce the cost and complexity of network infrastructure.
Hardware Offload
The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card also features hardware offload capabilities, which can help to improve network performance and reduce CPU utilization. The card supports a range of offload features, including TCP/IP checksum offload, TCP/IP segmentation offload, and Large Send Offload (LSO). These features offload some of the processing tasks from the server's CPU to the network card, which can help to free up CPU resources for other tasks.
Low Power Consumption
The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card is designed to consume low power, which can help to reduce the overall power consumption of the server. The card uses Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) technology, which automatically reduces power consumption during periods of low network activity. This can help to reduce the overall power consumption of the server and lower energy costs.
Advanced Network Features
The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card supports a range of advanced network features, including Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which provides accurate time synchronization across the network, and Data Center Bridging (DCB), which provides lossless Ethernet for converged network traffic. The card also supports remote boot and iSCSI boot, which can help to simplify network management and reduce deployment costs.
Easy Management
The 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card is designed to be easy to manage. It comes with a range of management tools, including the Dell EMC OpenManage Network Manager, which provides centralized management of network infrastructure. The card also supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which allows network administrators to monitor and manage the card remotely.
Overall, the 5X2H8 Dell Xtremescale Sfn8042 network interface card is a high-performance network interface card that provides high-speed connectivity to a server. It features two 40GbE ports and supports backward compatibility with 10GbE and 1GbE networks, providing flexible connectivity options for different types of applications.
