Lenovo ThinkSystem Broadcom 5719 1Gb 4-Port RJ45 OCP Ethernet Adapter

Four gigabit copper ports in an OCP module are what the Lenovo ThinkSystem Broadcom 5719 1Gb 4-Port RJ45 OCP Ethernet Adapter, part number 4XC7A08235, provides. The controller is a Broadcom 5719 and each port uses an RJ45 connector at 1GbE.

The OCP form installs in a server's dedicated OCP slot instead of a standard PCIe slot, which keeps PCIe slots free for other cards. Check that your server has an OCP slot before ordering. The standard PCIe version with the same controller has a different part number.

Gigabit copper is well suited to management, backup and low-traffic networks, and four ports give flexibility to separate them. Twisted-pair cabling and ordinary switch ports are all you need.

Broadcom 5719 is a common controller, so drivers are available in major operating systems and hypervisors. Matching the controller keeps your existing driver stack unchanged when replacing a module.

Confirm which OCP generation your server expects.

The 4XC7A08235 is offered in new, refurbished and used condition. New and refurbished modules carry a warranty choice of 1 year or 3 years, and used modules carry 90 days. Send your quantity and server model when you request pricing.
