Interface Card Intel X557T2OCPG1P5

Intel Ethernet Network Connection OCP X557-T2 (model X557T2OCPG1P5) is a dual-port 10Gb RJ45 internal interface card for servers. Designed for OCP PHY Mezzanine Type1/Type2 AIC compatibility, the module provides two 10Gb uplinks and two KR host connections through the OCP PHY mezzanine connector C. The card uses passive cooling and is available in black, green and grey finishes.

Advantages

The Intel X557T2OCPG1P5 delivers dual 10Gb RJ45 connectivity in an OCP form factor, enabling high-bandwidth uplinks and direct KR host links for compatible server platforms. Passive cooling reduces moving parts and maintenance, while OCP PHY Mezzanine compatibility allows flexible integration with Type 1 and Type 2 AIC mezzanine options.

Suitable for

• Server uplink aggregation and high-throughput networking
• Data center racks using OCP PHY Mezzanine Type1/Type2 AIC
• Environments requiring 10Gb RJ45 connectivity with KR host links
