Network Card Digitus Single Port 10G SFP PCIe

Connect your workstation directly to a 10G fiber-optic network with the Digitus Single Port 10G SFP PCIe network card. This single-port card uses a PCI Express x8/x16 slot and accepts SFP+ transceivers of your choice. Based on an Intel chipset, it supports fiber connections and offers standard networking features for high-speed wired environments.

Advantages

The card supports 10 Gbit/s throughput and is compatible with user-selected SFP+ transceivers, allowing flexible media choices. It fits into x8 and x16 PCIe slots and supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging. Hardware offloading features include IP, TCP and UDP checksum offload for both IPv4 and IPv6, and it can handle jumbo frames up to 15.5K.
