Broadcom BCM957508-N2100G Dual-Port 100GbE OCP 3.0 Network Adapter

Dual-Port 100GbE Networking for OCP 3.0 Servers

The Broadcom BCM957508-N2100G is a dual-port 100 Gb/s Ethernet network adapter designed for Open Compute Project OCP 3.0 server platforms. Its small-form-factor design provides two QSFP56 network connectors with support for QSFP56, QSFP28, and QSFP+ optical modules as well as copper direct-attach cables.

Built around the Broadcom BCM57508 200GbE MAC controller, the adapter connects to the host through a PCI Express 4.0 x16 interface. Hardware capabilities include SR-IOV, RDMA over Converged Ethernet, TruFlow flow processing, vSwitch acceleration, tunnel-aware network offloads, and Data Center Bridging features for high-bandwidth virtualized and enterprise infrastructure.

Key Benefits and Features

• High-Bandwidth 100GbE Connectivity: Dual 100GbE QSFP56 ports with QSFP56, QSFP28, and QSFP+ media support
• PCIe Gen 4 Host Bus: PCI Express 4.0 x16 host interface for optimal bandwidth and server integration
• OCP 3.0 Form Factor: OCP 3.0 Small Form Factor design with pull-tab faceplate installed by default
• Scalable Virtualization: SR-IOV support with up to 1,000 Virtual Functions (VFs)
• Advanced Offload Engine: RoCE, TruFlow, VXLAN, NVGRE, Geneve, and GRE hardware acceleration

Ideal Use Cases

• OCP 3.0 server platforms
• Data center and cloud computing infrastructure
• High-density virtualized server environments
• High-bandwidth converged Ethernet and RDMA deployments
