Lenovo ThinkSystem Intel E810-DA2 10/25Gb 2-Port SFP28 PCIe Ethernet Adapter

Intel's E810 controller drives the Lenovo ThinkSystem Intel E810-DA2 10/25Gb 2-Port SFP28 PCIe Ethernet Adapter, part number 4XC7A08295. It has two SFP28 ports rated at 10/25Gb and installs in a standard PCIe slot.

Platform standards often decide this purchase. If your servers use Intel networking across the fleet, an E810 card keeps drivers, firmware tools and monitoring consistent. Other 10/25Gb controllers under the ThinkSystem label offer the same port layout but need a different software stack.

The dual-speed ports let one card connect to 10Gb switches today and 25Gb switches after an upgrade. Two ports provide redundancy or separate networks. SFP28 optics and direct attach cables are not included.

The PCIe form is different from the OCP module that uses the same controller, which is sold under another part number. Check whether your server has a free PCIe slot or an OCP slot before choosing.

The 4XC7A08295 is offered in new, refurbished and used condition. New and refurbished cards carry a warranty choice of 1 year or 3 years, and used cards carry 90 days. Send your quantity and server model with your request.
