  • 10 GbE throughput via SFP+ cage
  • PCIe interface fits standard expansion slots
  • High-profile bracket suits full-height chassis
  • CE and RoHS certified for compliance
  • Operates reliably from 0 to 70 °C

10G Ethernet SFP+ Adapter

The Graviton MCX311A-XCAT is a high-profile PCIe network card built around the ConnectX-3 EN controller. It delivers a single 10GbE port for servers or workstations that need wired 10 gigabit connectivity. The card targets administrators upgrading existing infrastructure to faster Ethernet speeds.

SFP+ Port and Multimode Limits

The adapter uses an SFP+ cage with LC/APC connectors designed for multimode fibre. Link distance is constrained by the chosen transceiver and fibre grade, typically reaching a few hundred metres. It does not support single-mode optics or direct-attach copper cables without a compatible module.

High-Profile Bracket and Thermal Range

A full-height bracket fits standard server chassis and full-size workstations; it will not install in low-profile enclosures. The board carries CE and RoHS markings and is rated for an operating temperature range of 0 to 70 degrees Celsius. One card is included in the package.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 10 GbE SFP+ version or a different speed?

This card is the 10 GbE SFP+ model; choose it when your switch and cabling run at 10 gigabit.

What does the 10 GbE rating deliver inside my server?

It provides a single 10 gigabit Ethernet port over an SFP+ transceiver for high-throughput networking.

Which PCIe generation does the ConnectX-3 EN use and what bandwidth ceiling does that impose?

The adapter plugs into a PCIe slot; the bus generation of your motherboard determines the practical ceiling.
