Dual-port 10G PCIe 3.0 card

The StarTech ST10GPEXNDPI adds two 10GBASE-T Ethernet ports through a single PCI Express 3.0 slot. It is built on the Intel X550 chipset and supports five speeds from 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps over twisted-pair copper cable. The half-height design fits standard and low-profile chassis.

Suited for servers needing multi-gigabit uplinks

This adapter targets IT teams upgrading rackmount servers or high-throughput workstations to 10 Gigabit Ethernet without fibre cabling. It does not serve builds that require SFP+ direct-attach or fibre transceivers. Buyers needing single-port density or fibre media should look at a different interface type.

PCI Express 3.0 x4 electrical interface

The card operates on a PCIe 3.0 x4 electrical link, which determines whether the host platform can deliver full 10 Gbps throughput on both ports simultaneously. Verify the slot wiring in the target system before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Intel X550 chipset draw during sustained 10 Gbps traffic?

The IEEE 802.3az compliant chipset reduces power during low utilisation, but the supplier data does not quote a maximum wattage figure.

What must the host system provide for the card to operate at full speed?

A PCI Express 3.0 x4 slot and two Category 6a or better twisted-pair cables are required for 10 Gbps links up to 100 metres.

Will the low-profile bracket let me keep the card in a 1U rackmount chassis?

Yes, the included low-profile bracket fits standard 1U height, and the card dimensions of 0.70 by 4.70 by 5.90 inches are compatible with typical 1U depth.
