EXSYS Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe x4 Card, Intel X550-AT2, 2x RJ45, Low-Profile EX-60222

For server administrators and network engineers who need to add high-speed copper networking to a workstation or server, the EXSYS EX-60222 delivers two independent 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports over a single PCIe x4 slot. It is built around the Intel X550-AT2 controller, so it fits into existing Intel-based infrastructures without extra driver complexity.

Key specifications

• Dual 10GBASE-T RJ45 ports, each supporting 10 Gbps, 1 Gbps and 100 Mbps
• PCI Express 3.0 x4 host interface, low-profile bracket included
• Intel X550-AT2 chipset with hardware offloads for iSCSI, FCoE and virtualization
• Supports 802.3ad link aggregation, 802.1Q VLAN tagging and jumbo frames up to 15.5 KB
• PXE boot and SR-IOV for virtualized environments

Why choose it

The card uses standard RJ45 cabling, so you can reuse existing Cat6a or Cat7 copper runs instead of switching to fiber. The Intel controller is widely supported in Windows, Linux and VMware ESXi, which reduces deployment risk in mixed environments.

Ideal use cases

• Upgrading a server to 10GbE for storage traffic or VM migration
• Building a high-throughput workstation for video editing or data acquisition
• Adding redundant network links with teaming and failover

Good to know

The low-profile bracket makes the card compatible with 2U and small form factor chassis. Link and activity LEDs on each port give immediate status indication.
