Intel X710T2LOCPV3 network card Internal Ethernet 10000 Mbit/s

The Intel X710T2LOCPV3 is an internal network card that provides 10 Gbps Ethernet connectivity for servers and workstations. Designed for data-intensive environments, the adapter uses PCI Express to deliver high throughput and low-latency networking suitable for virtualization and high-performance I/O workloads.

Advantages

The adapter supports iWARP/RDMA to enable Remote Direct Memory Access over Ethernet, reducing CPU overhead and improving latency through Kernel Bypass, Direct Data Placement, and Transport Acceleration. Intel Data Direct I/O (DDIO) allows I/O devices to interact with processor cache to increase I/O bandwidth and reduce latency and power use. The card is PCI-SIG SR-IOV capable and supports Flexible Port Partitioning (FPP) to split a physical port into multiple virtual functions for fair bandwidth allocation. Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) offload switching tasks from the hypervisor to the network hardware to reduce VMM overhead and improve throughput.

Suitable for

• Server virtualization and multiple virtual machines requiring direct I/O access
• Data centers and high-performance computing where low latency matters
• Storage and database servers with high I/O throughput requirements

How to use

Install the Intel X710T2LOCPV3 into an available PCI Express slot on a compatible server or workstation according to the system manufacturer’s instructions. Install the appropriate Intel drivers and firmware for your operating system to enable features such as iWARP/RDMA, DDIO integration, SR-IOV, FPP, and VMDq. Configure network settings and virtual functions in the host OS or hypervisor management interface as required for your deployment.

Recommendations

For best results in virtualized or latency-sensitive environments, use up-to-date Intel drivers and firmware, enable SR-IOV or FPP when assigning dedicated bandwidth to VMs, and configure RDMA/iWARP where supported by the network stack and target applications.
