Intel PRO/1000 PF EXPI9402PF dual-port Gigabit PCIe x4 network card

SKU CH-CPMN-YQ6CF

Dual-port Gigabit Ethernet adapter for PCIe x4 slots with a low-profile bracket included

  • Dual-port Gigabit throughput with 1000Base-SX connectivity
  • PCI Express x4 interface provides dedicated server bandwidth
  • Two ports enable link aggregation or failover redundancy
  • Low-profile bracket included for compact chassis installation
  • Plug-in card form factor simplifies server deployment

Dual-port Gigabit PCIe x4 server adapter

The Intel EXPI9402PF is a dual-port Gigabit Ethernet network card built for PCI Express x4 slots. It uses 1000Base-SX fibre optics for server and storage networking. A low-profile bracket is included for compact chassis.

Suits fibre-based server links.

This adapter targets administrators upgrading or repairing servers that require dual 1000Base-SX connections over multimode fibre. It is not for networks that rely exclusively on copper cabling, nor for systems that lack a PCIe x4 or larger slot.

1000Base-SX fibre interface

The deciding specification is the 1000Base-SX optical interface, which requires multimode fibre patch cables and compatible switch ports. Verify that your cabling plant and switch modules match this standard before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Does the 1000Base-SX fibre link stay stable when both ports run at full 1000 Mbps throughput?

The card uses 1000Base-SX optics on each port, so line-rate gigabit traffic is supported on both ports simultaneously without protocol bottlenecks.

How much heat does the adapter produce when it operates continuously in a server chassis?

As a passive plug-in card with no onboard fan, it relies on chassis airflow; power draw is typical for a dual-port PCIe x4 Gigabit adapter.

Which fibre patch cables and SFP modules are required to connect the two ports?

Each port needs an SFP transceiver and a duplex multimode fibre patch cord with LC connectors for 1000Base-SX operation.
