Dell D0KXV 2-Port 10Gb/s SFP+ PCIE 3.0 x8 GE 10GBase-X Network Adapter

Product Description

The Dell D0KXV is a high-performance network adapter designed to provide dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity for servers. It features two SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) ports, which allow for flexible use of various 10GbE transceivers (e.g., SR for short-range, LR for long-range) to connect to different types of fiber optic cabling. This adapter utilizes a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface, ensuring a high-bandwidth connection to the server's motherboard. The PCIe 3.0 standard offers significantly increased throughput compared to older PCIe generations, which is crucial for maximizing the performance of dual 10Gb/s network ports. The 10GBase-X standard indicates its capability to support various 10GbE physical layer standards over fiber. The Dell D0KXV is an ideal solution for servers requiring high network throughput, such as those used in virtualization environments, high-performance computing clusters, storage servers, or data-intensive applications. Its dual-port design also enables network redundancy and load balancing, enhancing the reliability and performance of the server's network connection. This adapter is a key component for modern, high-speed server networking infrastructure.
