Dell 3CJYM X550-T2 2-Ports 10GBase-T PCIe 3.0 Converged Adapter

Product Description

The Dell 3CJYM, identified by SKU 3CJYM, is a high-performance dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter designed for server environments. This adapter leverages the Intel X550-T2 controller, offering robust and reliable connectivity for demanding network applications. It features two 10GBase-T ports, which utilize standard RJ-45 connectors and copper cabling, providing flexible and cost-effective network integration. The adapter supports auto-negotiation for speeds including 10 Gbps, 5 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, and 1 Gbps, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network infrastructure. With its PCIe 3.0 x4 interface, the 3CJYM adapter delivers substantial bandwidth to the host system, minimizing potential bottlenecks and ensuring efficient data transfer. This makes it well-suited for applications that require high throughput and low latency, such as virtualization, storage networking, and data-intensive workloads. The converged nature of the adapter allows it to handle both Ethernet and storage traffic, simplifying network architecture and reducing the need for multiple adapter types. This adapter is typically designed in a low-profile form factor, enabling it to fit into a variety of server chassis, including dense rack-mount and blade servers. The Intel X550 controller provides advanced features such as hardware offloads for TCP/UDP/IP checksums, large send offloads, and support for technologies like Data Center Bridging (DCB). These features contribute to improved network performance and reduced CPU overhead, making the Dell 3CJYM a valuable component for enhancing server network capabilities.
