Dell VK88G E810 10/25Gb 4-port SFP28 Ethernet Network Adapter

Product Description

The Dell VK88G, featuring the Intel E810 controller, is a high-performance 4-port SFP28 Ethernet Network Adapter designed to meet the demanding bandwidth requirements of modern data centers and enterprise networks. This adapter supports dual-speed connectivity, offering both 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) and 25 Gigabit Ethernet (25GbE) through its SFP28 ports. The inclusion of four such ports provides significant port density and flexibility for network aggregation, server connectivity, and high-speed storage networking. Leveraging the PCIe Gen 4.0 x16 interface, the VK88G ensures maximum bandwidth is available to the network adapter, minimizing potential bottlenecks between the network card and the server's CPU. This high-speed interface is crucial for applications that require low latency and high throughput, such as high-frequency trading, big data analytics, and high-performance computing (HPC). The Intel E810 chipset is known for its advanced networking features and efficiency. Key features of this adapter include support for Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV), which enhances virtual machine performance by allowing direct assignment of network resources to VMs, reducing overhead. It also supports RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) v2, enabling low-latency, high-throughput data transfers for storage and compute workloads. With its robust feature set and high-speed capabilities, the Dell VK88G is an ideal solution for environments demanding cutting-edge network performance and efficiency.
