Dell 540-BDOQ XXV710-DA2 2 x Ports 25GbE SFP28 PCIe Adapter

Description

The Dell 540-BDOQ network adapter is a high-performance solution providing dual-port 25 Gigabit Ethernet (25GbE) connectivity. It is powered by the Intel XXV710-DA2 controller, a widely recognized chipset for delivering robust and efficient networking capabilities in demanding environments. This adapter connects to the host system via a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface, ensuring ample bandwidth to support the high speeds of the 25GbE ports without introducing latency or bottlenecks. It is engineered for enterprise-class servers and data center applications where speed and reliability are critical. Each of the two ports on the 540-BDOQ utilizes an SFP28 (Small Form-Factor Pluggable 28) interface. This allows for the use of various SFP28 transceivers (sold separately), typically fiber optic modules, enabling flexible network configurations and compatibility with different cabling infrastructure. The 25Gbps speed per port provides substantial aggregate bandwidth, making it ideal for high-performance storage networks, virtualization platforms, and other data-intensive workloads that require rapid data transfer. Beyond its raw speed, the Intel XXV710-DA2 controller integrated into this adapter supports advanced features designed to optimize network performance and reduce CPU overhead. These often include technologies like SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization) for enhanced virtual machine I/O performance and various network offload capabilities. The adapter comes equipped with both standard and low-profile brackets, ensuring it can be installed in a wide variety of server chassis, from dense rack-mount systems to larger tower servers, offering versatility for deployment.
