Single-port 10GBASE-T PCIe network adapter based on Intel X550 controller for servers and workstations.
Upgrading legacy server infrastructure to 10GbE often requires costly cabling changes or complex switch replacements. The LREC9811BT solves this by delivering 10G performance over standard Cat6a copper cabling, enabling a seamless transition from 1GbE without replacing existing network backbone infrastructure.
Built on the Intel X550 controller, this PCIe 3.0 x4 adapter provides 10GBase-T connectivity with NBASE-T support for 2.5/5Gbps speeds over Cat5e. With hardware-accelerated TCP/UDP/IP checksum offloading and SR-IOV support, it significantly reduces CPU overhead, ensuring maximum throughput for virtualized environments and high-load data center applications.
Ideal for enterprise servers, storage arrays, and high-end workstations requiring reliable 10G copper connectivity. The Intel X550 chipset ensures robust driver support across Windows, Linux, and VMware platforms. Choose the LREC9811BT for a cost-effective, low-power upgrade path to 10GbE networking.
Powered by Intel X550 10G Ethernet controller with integrated MAC and PHY for reliable performance.
Delivers 10Gbps speeds over standard Cat6a copper cabling up to 100 meters.
Backward compatible with 2.5G and 5G speeds over Cat5e cabling for flexible deployment.
TCP/UDP/IP checksum offloading and segmentation free up CPU resources for critical applications.
Supports PCI-SIG SR-IOV and VMDq for efficient virtual machine network isolation and performance.
Consumes only 8.4W, providing energy-efficient 10GbE performance for data centers.
