HPE C3N52AA Intel X520 PCIE 10Gigabit Ethernet Card 2 Ports Adapter

Ports

The Intel X520 Network Adapter is equipped with 2 ports, making it an ideal choice for users who require multiple connections. With 2 ports, users can connect to multiple networks or devices simultaneously, allowing for increased flexibility and efficiency in data transfer.

Improved Network Performance

Having 2 ports enables users to take advantage of link aggregation or load balancing techniques. Link aggregation, also known as bonding or teaming, combines the bandwidth of multiple ports into a single logical link. This results in improved network performance as the combined bandwidth allows for faster data transfer and increased network capacity.

Load balancing distributes network traffic across the available ports, preventing bottlenecks and ensuring optimal network performance. With 2 ports, users can distribute the workload evenly, reducing latency and improving overall network efficiency.

Redundancy and Failover

The dual ports also provide redundancy and failover capabilities. In case one port fails or experiences connectivity issues, the other port can seamlessly take over, ensuring uninterrupted network connectivity. This is particularly important for critical applications or environments where downtime is not an option.

By utilizing both ports, users can create a high availability network, minimizing the risk of network failure and maximizing uptime.

Simplified Network Management

With 2 ports, users have the flexibility to segment their networks or establish separate connections for different purposes. This simplifies network management by allowing users to designate specific tasks or applications to each port.

For example, one port can be dedicated to data transfer between servers, while the other can be used for client connections. This segregation enhances security and improves overall network organization.

Speed

The Intel X520 Network Adapter boasts a blazing-fast speed of 10Gigabit, making it an excellent choice for users who require high-speed data transfer.

Rapid Data Transfer

With a speed of 10Gigabit, users can experience rapid data transfer rates, allowing for quick and efficient file transfers, backups, and streaming. This is particularly beneficial for businesses or individuals dealing with large amounts of data or bandwidth-intensive applications.

Reduced Latency

The high-speed connection provided by the Intel X520 Network Adapter significantly reduces latency, ensuring near-instantaneous communication between devices. This is crucial for real-time applications such as video conferencing, online gaming, or financial trading, where even the slightest delay can have a significant impact.

Future-Proofing

By incorporating the latest 10Gigabit technology, the Intel X520 Network Adapter offers users a future-proof solution that can handle increasing demands for data transfer. As technology advances and network speeds continue to evolve, having a 10Gigabit adapter ensures compatibility and readiness for future network upgrades.

Interface

The Intel X520 Network Adapter utilizes the PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) interface, providing users with a high-performance and reliable connection to their systems.

Enhanced Bandwidth

The PCIe interface offers significantly higher bandwidth compared to other interfaces such as PCI or PCI-X. This increased bandwidth allows for faster data transfer rates and improved overall system performance. With the Intel X520 Network Adapter's PCIe interface, users can take full advantage of its capabilities without being limited by interface bottlenecks.

Low Latency

In addition to increased bandwidth, the PCIe interface also offers low latency. This means that data can be transmitted and received with minimal delay, resulting in faster response times and improved system efficiency.

Scalability and Flexibility

The PCIe interface provides users with scalability and flexibility. The Intel X520 Network Adapter can be easily installed into PCIe slots of various sizes, allowing for compatibility with a wide range of systems. This flexibility ensures that the adapter can be utilized in different environments and can adapt to changing system requirements.

Compatible Brand

The Intel X520 Network Adapter is compatible with HPE (Hewlett Packard Enterprise) systems, making it an ideal choice for users who have HPE servers or network infrastructure.

Seamless Integration

By being compatible with HPE systems, the Intel X520 Network Adapter seamlessly integrates into existing infrastructure without the need for additional configuration or modification. This simplifies the installation process and reduces downtime, allowing users to quickly upgrade their network capabilities.

Optimized Performance

The compatibility between the Intel X520 Network Adapter and HPE systems ensures optimized performance. As both the adapter and the system are designed to work together, users can expect maximum efficiency and reliability. This compatibility eliminates any potential compatibility issues that may arise when using third-party adapters in HPE systems.
