  • Category-6A cabling supported up to 100 metres for full-distance deployment
  • Low-profile and full-height brackets included for flexible chassis fit
  • Intel-engineered design delivers high availability and scalability for demanding workloads

Dual-Port 10GbE Adapter

The Intel X550-T2 Converged Network Adapter adds two 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports through a single PCI Express slot. It uses RJ-45 connectors compatible with Category 6 cabling up to 55 metres and Category 6A up to 100 metres. Both low-profile and full-height brackets are included for flexible installation.

Server and Workstation Upgrades

This card suits administrators adding high-speed copper links to rackmount servers, storage appliances or precision workstations. It is not intended for desktop PCs lacking an available PCI Express lane or for environments that require fibre SFP+ connectivity instead of twisted-pair copper.

10GBASE-T Over RJ-45

The decisive specification is the 10GBASE-T interface running over standard RJ-45 jacks. If your cabling plant is Category 6A or better, you gain the full 100-metre reach; Category 6 limits runs to 55 metres. Verify your switch ports and cable grade before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What PCIe slot generation and width does the Intel X550-T2 need to operate?

The adapter requires a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot for full 10 GbE throughput on both ports.

Will the X550-T2 negotiate 1 GbE speeds with my existing Cat5e patch panel?

Yes, each RJ-45 port auto-negotiates down to 1 GbE or 100 Mbps over Cat5e cabling.

How can I confirm both 10 GbE links are active after installation?

Check the adapter LEDs — solid green on each port indicates a 10 GbE link; blinking shows traffic.
