Dell 430-4426 5719 4 x 1GbE GE PCI-E 2.0 x4 Network Interface Card

Product Description

The Dell 430-4426, also identified by its Dell part number 5719, is a high-performance network adapter designed to significantly boost a system's network capabilities. Featuring four independent Gigabit Ethernet ports, this card allows for increased bandwidth, network segmentation, and the implementation of network redundancy or load balancing strategies. Each port operates at speeds of up to 1 Gbps, providing ample throughput for demanding network applications and services. Connectivity is established via a PCI-Express 2.0 x4 interface, ensuring a high-bandwidth connection to the host system's motherboard. This PCIe 2.0 x4 interface offers a theoretical maximum throughput of 2 GB/s in each direction, which is more than sufficient to saturate all four Gigabit Ethernet ports simultaneously. The card is compatible with systems featuring PCIe x4 or larger slots (x8, x16), making it a versatile addition to a wide range of servers and workstations. This NIC is an excellent choice for environments that require robust and scalable network connectivity, such as data centers, enterprise networks, and high-performance computing clusters. It supports standard networking protocols and drivers, ensuring broad compatibility with major operating systems. The inclusion of both standard and low-profile brackets facilitates installation in various chassis types, further enhancing its deployment flexibility.
