Intel 82599ES Dual Port 10G SFP+ Network Interface Card Description
Our EDGEOPTIC 10G-NIC-82599ES-2O is a multi-vendor compatible dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet network interface card designed for high-performance server connectivity in data center and enterprise environments. This PCIe adapter features the proven Intel 82599E controller silicon, delivering reliable throughput with dual SFP+ ports operating at 10GbE or 1GbE speeds per port.
The 10G-NIC-82599ES-2O utilizes a PCI-E 2.0 x8 bus interface with 5GT/s or 2.5GT/s transfer rate, providing solid bandwidth for demanding workloads. The adapter supports network virtualization technologies including SR-IOV with 64 virtual functions, VMDq with 64 pools, and VLAN tagging. These capabilities enable efficient deployment in virtualized environments.
This network interface card incorporates comprehensive protocol support compliant with IEEE 802.3ae for 10GBASE Ethernet, IEEE 802.3x flow control, IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation, and IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging. Quality of Service is supported through IEEE 802.1p priority tagging and IEEE 802.1Qaz ETS for traffic class management.
Storage connectivity is provided through iSCSI, FCoE, and NFS support, enabling converged storage and networking over Ethernet. This makes the adapter suitable for unified fabric deployments where storage and network traffic share the same physical infrastructure. The adapter supports jumbo frames for improved throughput efficiency and PXE boot for network-based system deployment.
Interconnection distance depends on the SFP+ transceiver module used, providing deployment flexibility for various reach requirements from short-reach data center connections to extended campus deployments.
The 10G-NIC-82599ES-2O operates within 0°C to 55°C temperature range with airflow requirement of 100 LFM minimum. Physical dimensions measure 146mm x 69mm, and the card ships with a low-profile bracket attached with standard bracket included in packaging.
LED status indicators provide visual confirmation of link status and activity, with color coding for speed identification where green indicates 10 Gbps and yellow indicates 1 Gbps operation. Maximum power consumption is 6W operating on 3.3V and 12V supply rails.
Operating system support includes Windows Server 2008/2012/2016/2019, Windows 7/8/10, Linux distributions including RHEL, SLES, and Ubuntu, VMware ESXi, and FreeBSD. Management features include PXE Boot, iSCSI Boot, SNMP, RMON, and Intel PROSet Utility.
Our 10G SFP+ network interface card is CE/FCC/RoHS certified, compliant with product safety standards. Because our focus is providing top quality service, we perform serious quality checks before delivery including functional testing, firmware validation, and compatibility verification.
