Intel X710DA4G2P5 X710-DA4 Quad-Port 10GbE SFP+ Adapter
Quad-Port 10GbE Connectivity for Virtualized Data Centers
The Intel Ethernet Converged Network Adapter X710-DA4 is a quad-port 10GbE SFP+ adapter built for server, cloud, enterprise IT, and network virtualization environments. The X710DA4G2P5 configuration uses a low-profile form factor and PCI Express 3.0 x8 host interface, combining four SFP+ connections with the Intel Ethernet Controller X710-BM2.
The X710 platform supports 10GBASE-SR and 10GBASE-LR optical transceivers as well as SFP+ Direct Attach Copper media. Hardware-assisted network processing includes Intel Ethernet Flow Director, Dynamic Device Personalization, DPDK optimization, VMDq, and PCI-SIG SR-IOV. Network virtualization offloads support VXLAN, GENEVE, NVGRE, MPLS, and VXLAN-GPE with Network Service Headers.
Key Benefits and Features
