Intel E1G44ET2 Gigabit ET2 Quad Port network card

SKU CH-CMYV-EYP6W

Four-port Gigabit Ethernet PCIe x4 server adapter with Intel VT for Connectivity virtualization offload

  • Quad port density expands server connectivity with four RJ-45 links
  • PCI Express x4 host interface delivers full gigabit throughput per port
  • Intel 82576 controller offloads virtualization queues via VMDq and I/OAT
  • Full-height and low-profile brackets fit diverse chassis configurations
  • 10/100/1000Base-T auto-negotiation ensures broad network compatibility

Quad-port Gigabit server adapter

The Intel E1G44ET2 adds four RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports through a single PCI Express x4 slot. It is built for servers and workstations that need extra wired network connections for virtualization, storage or backup traffic. The card supports 10/100/1000Base-T speeds on every port.

Full-height and low-profile brackets included

The adapter ships with both a full-height bracket and a low-profile bracket so it fits standard rack servers as well as slim chassis. Installation is a straightforward PCIe x4 insertion; the only common issue is forgetting to swap the bracket before mounting the card in a low-profile slot.

PCI Express x4 host interface

The card requires an open PCIe x4 slot (or a larger slot running at x4 electrical) to deliver full bandwidth to all four ports. Systems that only offer x1 or x2 electrical connections will limit aggregate throughput.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the Intel E1G44ET2 quad-port adapter is working correctly after installation?

Check Device Manager to confirm all four 10/100/1000Base-T ports appear without errors, then verify link lights illuminate on each active RJ-45 connection.

What comes in the retail box and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains one full-height and one low-profile bracket for the PCI Express x4 plug-in card; cables and SFP modules are not included.

Which Intel E1G44ET2 version should I choose for a server with only low-profile slots?

Use the included low-profile bracket to install the full-height card in a low-profile chassis; the single SKU fits both form factors.
