Product Description
The Intel X520SR2BPL, identified by its common designation X520-DA2, is a high-performance dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC). This adapter is engineered to deliver robust and reliable network connectivity for demanding server and workstation applications. It features two SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) ports, which allow for flexible connection options using various fiber optic transceivers, supporting both short-reach and long-reach network links. Built around the Intel Ethernet Controller X520-DA2, this NIC is designed to handle high network traffic loads with efficiency and low latency. It utilizes a PCI Express (PCIe) interface, providing ample bandwidth to support the full 10Gb/s speed of each port simultaneously. The card is optimized for environments such as data centers, high-performance computing clusters, and enterprise networks where fast and stable network communication is critical for application performance and data throughput. Beyond its core speed and port configuration, the X520SR2BPL supports a range of advanced networking features. These often include hardware offloads for protocols like iSCSI, FCoE, and RDMA, which reduce CPU utilization and improve overall system performance. The inclusion of both standard and low-profile brackets ensures compatibility with a wide variety of server chassis, making it a versatile solution for network infrastructure upgrades or new deployments requiring high-speed Ethernet connectivity.
