Lenovo ThinkSystem Broadcom 57414 10/25Gb 2-Port SFP28 PCIe Ethernet Adapter

Two SFP28 ports rated at 10/25Gb on a Broadcom 57414 controller make up the Lenovo ThinkSystem Broadcom 57414 10/25Gb 2-Port SFP28 PCIe Ethernet Adapter, part number 4XC7A08238. It is the standard PCIe form of a controller that is also sold as an OCP module.

That difference is the first check before ordering. The PCIe card installs in an ordinary slot, while the OCP version needs a server with an OCP slot, and the two have separate part numbers.

The dual-speed ports suit mixed networks. They can run at 10GbE against older switches and at 25GbE against newer ones, so a network upgrade does not force a card change. Two ports support a redundant pair or separate networks. SFP28 optics and direct attach cables are not included, so choose them to match your switches.

Broadcom 57414 is one of several 10/25Gb controllers under the ThinkSystem label. Match the controller named in the title when replacing a card.
