Dual-Port 10Gb RJ45 Adapter

The Graviton X540-T2 is a PCIe x8 network card that adds two RJ45 ports running at 10 Gbps each. It targets servers and workstations that need high-throughput wired connectivity without switching to SFP+ cabling.

Suits 10GbE copper deployments; not for fibre links

This card suits environments that already use Cat6a or better copper runs and want a drop-in 10 GbE upgrade. It does not suit builds that require optical SFP+ transceivers, single-port density, or a lower-profile bracket than the two supplied.

PCIe x8 electrical interface decides fit

The adapter requires an x8 electrical connection; an x4 or x1 slot will limit bandwidth below the dual 10 Gbps line rate. Verify the motherboard or riser can supply an x8 link before purchase.

Questions about this item

What PCIe generation and lane width does the X540-T2 use, and what throughput does that cap the adapter at?

The card plugs into a PCIe x8 slot and is rated for 10 Gb/s per port, so the bus interface limits each port to that 10 Gb/s line rate.

What are the exact dimensions and bracket options so I can confirm it fits my chassis?

The board measures 6.65 by 4.37 by 1.18 inches and the package includes both low-profile and high-profile brackets for either form factor.

How is the adapter installed, and what step do builders often miss?

Insert the card into an open PCIe x8 slot, secure the chosen bracket, connect RJ45 cables, then install the Intel driver so the operating system recognises both 10 GbE ports.
