Product Details
The Dell N210GBT Dual-Port 10GBASE-T PCI Express 3.0 x8 OCP SFP Ethernet Card is a high-speed network adapter designed for use in servers and workstations. It is compatible with the PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface and supports both 10GBASE-T and SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) connections. In this article, we will explore the features and benefits of this Ethernet card in detail.
Features
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card is a dual-port network adapter that can provide up to 20 Gbps of data transfer speed. It is designed for use in high-performance computing environments and is compatible with a wide range of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and VMware ESXi.
- 10GBASE-T and SFP+ Support
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card supports both 10GBASE-T and SFP+ connections. 10GBASE-T is an Ethernet standard that allows for 10 Gigabit per second (Gbps) data transfer over twisted pair copper cables. This makes it possible to use existing Cat6 or Cat7 cabling infrastructure for high-speed networking, without having to upgrade to fiber optic cabling.
SFP+ is a small form-factor pluggable transceiver that can support various types of fiber optic cables. The SFP+ interface allows for hot-swappable connectivity, which means that the transceiver can be removed or inserted without having to shut down the server or workstation.
- PCI Express 3.0 x8 Interface
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card is designed to be used with the PCI Express 3.0 x8 interface. This interface provides a maximum bandwidth of 8 Gbps per lane, and the card uses eight lanes to provide a total bandwidth of up to 64 Gbps. This makes it ideal for use in high-performance computing environments that require high-speed networking.
- OCP Compatibility
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card is also compatible with the Open Compute Project (OCP) standards. The OCP is an initiative that aims to develop open-source hardware for data centers, with a focus on power efficiency, scalability, and flexibility. By using an OCP-compliant Ethernet card, data center operators can take advantage of the latest advancements in open-source hardware, while also reducing their energy consumption and costs.
- Low Power Consumption
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card is designed to be energy-efficient, with a maximum power consumption of 10 watts per port. This makes it ideal for use in data centers and other environments where energy consumption is a concern.
- Compatibility
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card is compatible with a wide range of Dell PowerEdge servers and workstations, including the Dell PowerEdge R740, R740XD, R640, R940, and T640. It is also compatible with a variety of operating systems, including Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2016, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4, and VMware ESXi 6.7.
Benefits
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card offers several benefits for users, including:
- High-Speed Networking
With support for both 10GBASE-T and SFP+ connections, the Dell N210GBT Ethernet card provides fast and reliable networking for high-performance computing environments. It can deliver up to 20 Gbps of data transfer speed, which makes it ideal for applications that require large amounts of data to be transferred quickly.
- Energy Efficiency
The Dell N210GBT Ethernet card is designed to be energy-efficient, with a maximum power consumption of 10 watts per port. This makes it an ideal choice for data center operators who want to reduce their energy consumption and costs.

Network Adapters
A network adapter also called a network interface card is a plug-in card that serves to allow computers to both transmit and receive data on a local network. It is a component of a computer's internal hardware that facilitates communication over a network.
In a more current context, network adapters will refer to an Ethernet adapter where the Ethernet circuitry is built into motherboards of the latest desktops and laptop computers. Other times, a network adapter may also refer to a wireless (Wi-Fi) adapter.
In all instances, the adapter allows a computer to connect with another computer, a server, or other networking devices through a LAN connection. The use of a network adapter is not limited to wired connections as it is used for wireless networks. The adapters for wired networks come with an RJ-45 port that may use either the twisted or untwisted pair cables for network connectivity. For the wireless adapters, the network connection is facilitated through a built-in antenna or an externally connected antenna. Both the wired and wireless network adapters support the popular LAN protocols including TCP/IP. We have 1-port, 2-port, 4-port, 6-port, 8-port, and 16-port options that support speeds of 10, 25, 40, or even 100 Gigabits.
The plug-in network interface cards (NICs) are normally used in high-performance machines especially if a faster Ethernet standard is relatively new and available but is yet to become mainstream. In fact, the major difference between network adapters lies in the network protocol it supports.
We have the different types of network adapters necessary for building computer-to-computer networks that don't have a switch or hub. All the network adapters are fairly inexpensive and readily adaptable to different applications within a network. Some of the common types available are:
Network adapters common types
- Desktop Network Interface Card: This adapter is usually connected to a PCI or PCIe slot, whichever is available on the motherboard of your desktop computer. You will need to open your computer's case and it, therefore, presents the most difficult installation method. The PCIe slot is generally found in new computers.
- PC Card or PCMCIA Card: PCMCIA is the abbreviation for Personal Computer Memory Card International Association. The name has undergone changes over time to be referred to as a PC Card or ExpressCard. For dimensions, the PC card is almost similar in size to a credit card but is significantly thicker. The PC card is connected to a PC or PCMCIA card slot in your desktop computer or laptop computer.
- USB adapter: This network adapter is typically a small device, similar to a thumb drive, with a USB interface. Installation is easy and straightforward since it is plugged into the USB port of your desktop or laptop computer or other network devices that have a USB port.
- Wireless game adapters also referred to as media adapters, are connected to older game consoles and home entertainment devices so as to act as a bridge to Wi-Fi capability. They help expand functionality on these entertainment devices through connections to the internet.
