Q-LOGIC QLE8442-SR-CK Dual 10Gbps Ethernet Network Card

SKU CH-7NBM-5FQE9 MPN QLE8442-SR-CK

A low-profile PCIe x8 adapter with dual 10 Gbps Ethernet ports for wired networking

  • Dual 10 Gbps ports deliver high-bandwidth connectivity
  • PCIe Gen3 x8 interface provides ample throughput capacity
  • Low-profile form factor fits compact server chassis
  • Supports TCP/IP, UDP/IP and iSCSI protocols
  • QLogic 8442 controller ensures reliable network performance

Dual 10Gbps Ethernet Adapter

The Q-Logic QLE8442-SR-CK is a dual-port 10Gbps Ethernet network card designed for servers and workstations that need high-throughput wired connectivity. It suits environments running TCP/IP, UDP/IP or iSCSI workloads where two independent 10Gbps links are required.

PCIe Gen3 x8 slot required

Verify that your motherboard or riser provides a physical PCIe Gen3 x8 slot with an x8 electrical link. The card uses a low-profile PCIe short form factor, so confirm the chassis bracket height matches your case or rackmount enclosure before ordering.

Low-profile build with dual SFP+ cages

The short, low-profile PCB fits 1U and slim chassis without blocking adjacent slots. Two SFP+ cages accept standard 10Gbps transceiver modules, letting you choose copper or fibre cabling per port to match the existing network infrastructure.

Questions about this item

Does the QLE8442-SR-CK ship with any cables or transceivers, or do I need to source 10 Gbps optics separately?

The card is supplied as a low-profile PCIe adapter only; SFP+ transceivers and fibre patch cables for the dual 10 Gbps ports must be purchased separately.

The listing shows a single QLE8442-SR-CK model — are there alternative port-count or speed variants I should consider?

This SKU is fixed at two 10 Gbps Ethernet ports on a PCIe Gen3 x8 bracket; no other port-count or speed versions exist under this part number.

When installed in a PCIe Gen3 x8 slot, will the adapter deliver the full 10 Gbps line rate on both ports simultaneously?

Yes — the x8 interface provides enough bandwidth for dual 10 Gbps Ethernet traffic at wire speed in a Gen3 system.
