Broadcom BCM957508-P2100G Dual-Port 100GbE Network Interface Card
Dual-Port 100GbE Connectivity for Data Center Infrastructure
The Broadcom BCM957508-P2100G is a dual-port 100 Gb/s Ethernet Network Interface Card designed for data center and cloud computing environments. It provides two high-speed network ports supporting QSFP56, QSFP28, and QSFP+ optical modules as well as copper direct-attach cables.
Powered by the Broadcom BCM57508 controller, the adapter leverages a PCI Express 4.0 x16 host interface to supply high-bandwidth server connectivity. Hardware-accelerated features—including SR-IOV, RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE), TruFlow flow processing, vSwitch acceleration, and tunnel-aware network offloads—deliver scalable throughput for virtualized and enterprise deployments.
Key Benefits and Features
- High-Speed 100GbE Performance: Dual 100GbE ports with flexible QSFP56, QSFP28, and QSFP+ media support
- PCIe Gen 4.0 Bandwidth: PCI Express 4.0 x16 host interface for optimal bus efficiency and zero-bottleneck performance
- Massive Virtualization Scale: SR-IOV architecture supporting up to 1,000 Virtual Functions (VFs)
- Low-Latency Offloads: RoCE (v1/v2) support for converged Ethernet and low-latency RDMA workloads
- Advanced Flow Acceleration: Hardware offloads for VXLAN, NVGRE, Geneve, GRE, IPv4, IPv6, TCP, and UDP traffic processing
Ideal Use Cases
- Data center server networking
- Cloud computing and enterprise infrastructure
- High-density virtualized server environments
- High-bandwidth converged Ethernet and storage networking
