Product Overview
The 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port 10 & 1GB 10GBase-T & 1000Base-T PCI-E R Series DaughterCard NIC is a high-performance network interface card (NIC) designed to provide fast and reliable connectivity to your server. It is a Quad-port NIC with four Ethernet ports that supports both 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit Ethernet speeds. In this article, we will discuss the features and benefits of the 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC in detail.
Quad-port Design
The 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC is designed to provide four Ethernet ports in a single card. This means that you can connect up to four different devices to your server using a single NIC. This can be particularly useful if you have a high-traffic network and need to distribute the load across multiple ports.
10 Gigabit Ethernet Support
One of the key features of the 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC is its support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. 10 Gigabit Ethernet is a high-speed networking standard that provides data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbps. This makes it ideal for high-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, large file transfers, and virtualization.
1 Gigabit Ethernet Support
In addition to 10 Gigabit Ethernet, the 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC also supports 1 Gigabit Ethernet. 1 Gigabit Ethernet provides data transfer rates of up to 1 Gbps and is suitable for a wide range of networking applications.
10GBase-T Support
The 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC supports 10GBase-T, which is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet standard that uses twisted pair cabling. This means that you can use your existing Cat6a or Cat7 cabling infrastructure to connect your server to your network. This can save you the cost and hassle of having to install new cabling.
1000Base-T Support
In addition to 10GBase-T, the 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC also supports 1000Base-T, which is a 1 Gigabit Ethernet standard that uses twisted pair cabling. This means that you can connect your server to a wide range of networking devices such as switches, routers, and hubs.
PCI-E Interface
The 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC connects to your server via the PCI-E interface. PCI-E is a high-speed serial bus interface that provides fast and reliable connectivity to your server. It is the most common interface used for connecting NICs to servers and provides a high degree of compatibility with a wide range of server platforms.
R Series Daughter Card
The 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC is designed to be used with the Dell R Series servers. It comes in the form of a daughter card that can be installed in the server’s PCI-E slot. The daughter card design allows for easy installation and removal of the NIC without the need for any additional tools.
Fast and Reliable Connectivity
The 99GTM Dell Intel X540 Quad-Port NIC provides fast and reliable connectivity to your server. Its support for 10 Gigabit Ethernet ensures that you can transfer large amounts of data quickly and efficiently. Its support for 1 Gigabit Ethernet provides a reliable and stable connection for a wide range of networking applications.
