Product information

Description

The StarTech 2-Port PCIe 10GBase-T network card with Intel X540 adds two 10 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports to a client, server or workstation through a single PCI Express slot. Designed for wired connectivity and supporting IEEE 802.3ab/az/an/ad/q/u standards and energy-efficient Ethernet, the card delivers up to 20 Gbit/s aggregate throughput and is suitable for systems that require reliable 10GbE over copper. The dual-profile design includes both full-height and low-profile brackets for installation in a wide range of chassis.

Advantages

The dual-port design provides two independent 10GbE RJ45 interfaces from one PCI Express slot, enabling high-speed networking without multiple expansion slots. The Intel X540 controller supports advanced features such as VLAN tagging, jumbo frames, Auto-MDIX and Intel Virtualization Technology for connectivity, while PXE network boot support simplifies deployment. Compatibility with common networking standards and energy-efficient Ethernet support helps reduce power consumption under light loads.

Suitable for

  • Upgrading servers and workstations to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper
  • High-bandwidth NAS and storage servers requiring multi-gig throughput
  • Virtualized environments that benefit from Intel Virtualization Technology for connectivity
  • Environments needing PXE network boot and advanced NIC features (VLAN, jumbo frames)

Key specifications

  • Architecture: dual-port 10GBase-T network adapter
  • Controller: Intel X540
  • Host interface: PCI Express (requires x8 or higher lane)
  • Ports: 2 × RJ45 100/1000/10GBase-T
  • Maximum aggregate throughput: 20000 Mbit/s (full duplex total)
  • Supported standards: IEEE 802.3ab, 802.3az, 802.3an, 802.3ad, 802.3q, 802.3u
  • Energy-efficient Ethernet support
  • Product colour: stainless steel and black
  • Weight: 0.16 kg

How to use

Power down the computer or server and unplug it from its power source before installation. Install the card into an available PCI Express slot that provides at least four lanes (x8 recommended) and secure it using the appropriate bracket (full-height or low-profile). Reconnect power and boot the system. Install or update drivers as required by the operating system to enable the Intel X540 features and network management. Connect standard Cat6a/Cat7 copper Ethernet cables to the RJ45 ports for 10GbE links and configure network settings, VLANs or jumbo frames via the OS or management software.

Usage recommendations

For optimal 10GbE performance, use shielded Cat6a or Cat7 cabling and ensure the PCI Express slot provides sufficient lanes. Verify compatibility with the server or workstation BIOS and operating system drivers before deployment. When installing in dense server environments, consider airflow and thermal management to maintain reliable operation of the Intel X540 controller.
