Low Profile Design
The 540-BBVN Dell Dual Port Broadcom 57414 25GB SFP28 Server Adapter Ethernet PCIE Network Interface Card Low Profile is designed to fit in low profile servers. Low profile servers are designed to be compact and efficient, and the low profile design of this adapter makes it an ideal choice for such servers.
PCIe Network Interface Card
The 540-BBVN Dell Dual Port Broadcom 57414 25GB SFP28 Server Adapter Ethernet PCIE Network Interface Card Low Profile is a PCIe network interface card. PCIe is a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard that is used to connect devices such as network cards, sound cards, and graphics cards to the motherboard of a computer. PCIe provides faster data transfer rates than the older PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) standard.
Network Interface Card
A network interface card (NIC) is a hardware component that provides network connectivity to a computer. A NIC is typically installed in a computer’s expansion slot, and it connects to the computer’s motherboard to provide network connectivity. NICs come in different forms, including Ethernet cards, Wi-Fi cards, and Bluetooth cards.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a networking technology that is used to connect computers and other devices to a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Ethernet is a wired technology, and it uses twisted-pair or fiber optic cables to transmit data between devices. Ethernet is the most widely used networking technology in the world, and it is used in a wide range of applications, from home networking to data centers.
SFP28
SFP28 is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver module that provides 25GB Ethernet connectivity. SFP28 is the latest evolution of the SFP standard, which was first introduced in 2001. SFP28 is designed to provide higher bandwidth and lower power consumption than its predecessor, SFP+. SFP28 modules are hot-swappable, meaning they can be replaced without powering down the device.
Server Adapter
A server adapter is a networking device that provides network connectivity to servers. Server adapters are typically installed in a server’s expansion slot, and they connect to the server’s motherboard to provide network connectivity. Server adapters come in different forms, including Ethernet adapters, Fibre Channel adapters, and InfiniBand adapters.
