10Gb dual-port SFP+ NIC for servers and workstations

This BFKK network card uses a Broadcom BCM57810S controller to deliver two 10 Gb SFP+ ports over a PCI Express 2.0 x8 interface. It supports SR-IOV virtualization and is compatible with x8 and x16 slots. Both low-profile and full-height brackets are included for standard or slim chassis.

Check slot width operating system

Verify the host has a free PCIe x8 or x16 slot running at Gen 2.0 speeds of 5.0 GT/s. Confirm the target OS appears in the supported list: Windows 7, 8, 10, Server 2003, 2008, 2012, 2016, 2019, Linux kernels for CentOS/RHEL 6, 7, 8, Ubuntu 16, 18, 19, 20, Debian 9, 10, 11, FreeBSD 10, 11, 12, VMware ESXi 6, 7, and SLES 11, 12. Ensure 10 Gb SFP+ transceivers, DACs or AOCs match the intended link distance.

Thermals noise and power in typical operation

The card is a passive add-in board with no onboard fan, so it adds no audible noise beyond chassis airflow. Power draw is governed by the BCM57810S controller and the installed SFP+ modules under normal 10 Gb traffic loads. Adequate case ventilation is required to keep the controller within its thermal envelope during sustained throughput.

Questions about this item

Does the BFKK BCM57810S card include SFP+ transceivers or cables, or must I buy them separately?

The card provides two SFP+ ports only; 10G SFP+ modules, DAC or AOC cables are not included and must be purchased separately.

Should I choose the low-profile or full-height bracket for my server?

Both brackets are packed in the box; fit the low-profile bracket for slim 1U chassis or the full-height bracket for standard ATX cases.

What throughput can I expect from the dual 10G ports on a PCIe 2.0 x8 slot?

Each port runs at 10 Gbit/s; the PCIe 2.0 x8 interface supplies ample bandwidth for both ports at line rate.
