Network adapter INTEL X710T4LOCPV3G1P 10Gb RJ45 4-port

INTEL X710T4LOCPV3G1P is a PCIe network adapter with four 10Gb RJ45 ports, designed to deliver multi-gigabit wired connectivity for servers and high-performance workstations. It supports high-throughput Ethernet required by virtualization platforms, storage networks and network aggregation scenarios, and provides stable physical connections with reduced latency and increased bandwidth for data-intensive applications.

Advantages

The adapter supplies four independent 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports over standard RJ45 copper, enabling connectivity to existing structured cabling without the need for fiber transceivers. With PCI Express interface compatibility, the card integrates into server and workstation environments to provide reliable throughput and low-latency packet processing. The design focuses on efficient offload and hardware-assisted networking features to reduce host CPU load while maintaining consistent transfer rates under heavy traffic.

Suitable for

• Virtualization hosts and hyper-converged infrastructure
• High-performance storage access (iSCSI, NAS)
• Server-to-server aggregation and high-throughput uplinks
• Latency-sensitive applications and real-time data processing

Key specifications

• Interface: PCI Express (x8/x16 compatible)
• Ports: 4 × 10 Gigabit Ethernet over RJ45 (copper)
• Speed: 10 Gbps per port, auto-negotiation supported
• Connector type: standard RJ45, compatible with Cat6a/Cat7 cabling for 10G
• Form factor: low-profile / full-height bracket options (depending on model variant)
• Offload features: hardware-assisted packet processing and checksum/segmentation offloads
• Network features: support for VLAN tagging, jumbo frames, link aggregation

How to use

Install the network adapter into an available PCIe slot on a compatible server or workstation following standard ESD precautions. Secure the bracket and connect each RJ45 port to the network switch or cabling infrastructure using appropriate Cat6a/Cat7 cables for 10 Gbps links. After physical installation, install the operating system drivers provided by the system vendor or INTEL to enable full feature support. Configure network settings, VLANs and link aggregation as required through the OS network management tools or switch configuration interface.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbps performance, use certified Cat6a or higher-rated copper cabling and confirm switch port settings (speed/duplex and flow control). Verify that the host BIOS and operating system are up to date and that drivers are the vendor-recommended versions. When deploying in dense server environments, monitor thermal conditions and ensure adequate airflow around PCIe slots.
