Product Description
The Dell 540-BDNH is a high-performance network interface card (NIC) designed to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Featuring two SFP+ ports, it allows for flexible and robust network connections, supporting various fiber optic transceivers (such as SFP+ SR for short reach and SFP+ LR for long reach, which are typically sold separately) to accommodate different network distances and topologies. This dual-port configuration enables redundancy, link aggregation, or connection to multiple network segments. Utilizing the PCIe 3.0 x8 interface, the X710-DA2 controller ensures ample bandwidth for demanding network traffic, making it suitable for environments such as data centers, enterprise networks, and high-performance computing clusters. The adapter is engineered for efficiency, offering advanced features like intelligent offloads, virtual machine device queues (VMDq), and support for network virtualization technologies, which help reduce CPU overhead and improve overall system performance. This network adapter is designed for easy integration into servers and workstations, often coming with both low-profile and full-height brackets to fit various chassis types. Its robust feature set, combined with the reliability expected from Dell and Intel components, makes the 540-BDNH a powerful solution for upgrading network infrastructure to meet the demands of modern applications and data-intensive workloads.
