Dell Intel X710 10Gb 2-Port SFP+ PCIe Low-Profile Ethernet Adapter, V2

A V2 label marks the Dell Intel X710 10Gb 2-Port SFP+ PCIe Low-Profile Ethernet Adapter, V2, part number 540-BDQZ, as a revision of Dell's low-profile X710 card. It still offers two SFP+ ports at 10GbE and an Intel X710 controller on a low-profile bracket.

Revisions matter when you match a replacement. Dell may issue a new part number for a revised board, and a server's parts list or support tools may name one version. The title shows this card as the second version, so compare it with the number your system lists, and ask us if you are unsure.

Low-profile height fits slim servers whose slots reject full-height cards. A full-height version of this revision has its own part number.

Two SFP+ ports serve redundant links or separate networks. Direct attach cables and pluggable optics are bought separately, so match them to your switches.

Intel X710 is supported by common operating systems and hypervisors, which keeps driver planning short.

The 540-BDQZ is available in new, refurbished and used condition. New and refurbished cards carry 1 year or 3 years of warranty, and used cards carry 90 days. Send your quantity and server model for pricing.
