Dell 540-BCXX E810XXVDA2 2-Ports 25GbE SFP28 PCIe Adapter

Product Description

The Dell 540-BCXX is a cutting-edge dual-port 25 Gigabit Ethernet (25GbE) network adapter powered by the Intel E810-XXVDA2 controller. This adapter is designed to provide exceptional performance, low latency, and high throughput, making it ideal for the most demanding modern data center applications, including AI/ML, cloud computing, and high-performance enterprise workloads. The SFP28 interface ensures compatibility with 25GbE infrastructure. Leveraging the PCIe Gen4 x8 interface, this adapter offers significantly increased bandwidth compared to previous generations, ensuring that high-speed network traffic can be handled efficiently without becoming a bottleneck. It incorporates advanced features such as Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) and VMDq, which are crucial for optimizing performance in virtualized environments by enabling direct hardware access for virtual machines and efficient I/O queuing. Key capabilities of the Intel E810 controller include robust offload engines for TCP, UDP, and IP protocols, as well as support for network virtualization overlays like VXLAN, NVGRE, and Geneve. Additionally, it supports RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) v2, which allows for low-latency, high-bandwidth direct memory access between applications, further enhancing performance for data-intensive tasks. The Dell 540-BCXX represents a significant advancement in server networking, providing the speed and intelligence required for next-generation data centers.
