Product Description
The Dell RC49N is a high-performance network interface card (NIC) designed to equip servers and workstations with dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity. This adapter utilizes the PCIe 2.1 x8 interface, ensuring sufficient bandwidth to support the demanding throughput of two 10Gbps network links. The RJ-45 connectors make it compatible with standard copper Ethernet cabling, simplifying integration into existing network infrastructures that utilize Cat6a or higher cabling for 10GbE speeds. This dual-port adapter is crucial for applications requiring high-speed data transfer, such as network-attached storage (NAS), high-performance computing (HPC) clusters, video editing workstations, and data-intensive database servers. By providing two independent 10GbE connections, it allows for link aggregation (LAG) to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy, or it can be used to connect to two separate networks simultaneously. The full-duplex capability of each port ensures that data can be transmitted and received concurrently, maximizing network efficiency. The PCIe 2.1 x8 interface provides a theoretical maximum bandwidth of 8 Gigatransfers per second (GT/s) in each direction, which is more than adequate for two 10Gbps links (each link requiring approximately 10 Gbps of bandwidth). This ensures that the network adapter is not a bottleneck for network-intensive tasks. The RC49N is a valuable component for upgrading server network capabilities, enhancing data throughput, and improving overall network performance in environments where speed and reliability are paramount.
