E-X520-DA1-10G-1S

My husband recently tried the Euqvos 10GbE Single Port SFP+ PCI-E NIC Card for Intel 82599ES Chip X520-DA1 PCI Express x8 LAN Support Windows Server/Linux/VMware and he was really impressed. The card was easy to install and configure, and it provided a reliable and consistent connection. It was also very fast, allowing us to transfer large files quickly and easily. The card is also very versatile, as it supports Windows Server, Linux and VMware, so it is great for a variety of different purposes. It also comes with a comprehensive range of drivers and software to ensure that it works perfectly with the specific system. Overall, I would highly recommend this product. It is well worth the money, and the performance is fantastic. It is easy to set up and use and is great for a range of different purposes. Pros Easy to install and configure Reliable and consistent connection Versatile – supports Windows Server, Linux and VMware Comprehensive range of drivers and software Great value for money Fantastic performance Cons: None that we have found Tips to get the most out of this product: Make sure your system meets the minimum requirements first Read the instructions carefully before installing or configuring the card Test the card after installation to make sure it is working properly

I ordered this as a Vine item and gave it to my boss.....gone are the days of giving teacher an apple! He also doubles up as our IT hardware man so he knows a bit about this sort of kit. Initially he laughed that we'd only just got 1Gb full fibre to the site so this 10Gb card was a bit OTT but he took it anyway. He pointed out as many other reviewers have done that it need and additional SFP adapter to make the connection to a home network. You can pick these up for around £15 which isn't a great additional cost. Once you have one, connection is as per any other NIC. Since I gave him it he's used it in a new PC he's built for a workstation in the factory. He's reported that everything went well with the build, no conflicts or software issues and the PC is running very well. The 10Gb data rate, although not usable at the moment does future proof the PC in case higher speeds are achievable in the future. Verdict: Seemed like a good value NIC despite the extra SFP cost. Installation is easy and set up didn't prove problematic.

Probably worth noting before you read anything else is that: THIS DOES NOT HAVE A STANDARD RJ45 SOCKET You will need an SFP+ adaptor (Small Form factor Pluggable +). The advantage of this design is that one can get SFP+ adaptors that convert directly to fibreoptic, RJ45, or other connectors. This card allows you to use whatever SFP+ adaptor you already have...but if you're like me and didn't realise you'd need one, it won't work at all until you have got one....! In terms of fitting, it comes with fill size and half size mounts. My machine is full size so I used the default, and it fits easily. The bottom has a bar running its length, presumably to keep other cabling away from the heatsink, but it did slightly impinge on a couple of discrete fan cables. I can't comment on performance at present because I'm waiting for an SFP+ adaptor to arrive....!

There's a couple of reviews on here which state this is plug and play for internet/networking. That is not true, you will need an SFP adapter, this is not a regular RJ-45 connection and SFP adapters are not the norm for people outside of running servers or with older type connections. These cards are primarily used for server links but as it is a NIC it will work identically to a regular ethernet card but you still need an SFP adapter as the port doesn't have one housed. They can cost as much as this card but they will unlock the potential and allow you to use a regular RJ-45. Depending on where your limitations are within your home network, you could opt for a lower data rate and half the cost or go full bandwidth at 10gb with the SFP. You can buy a 10gb SFP for around £70 or go for incriminates, 2.5gb would be more than enough for UK broadband speeds currently available. Obviously if you're on a faster speed you'd buy the SFP which can transfer that equivalent upto 10gb. Now I'm guessing you're a regular home user and that you haven't upgraded all your switches and your devices certainly won't be anywhere near10gb. They'll be a max of 1gig for fairly modern equipment and ordinarily 100mb. So your limitations are the ports you're linked to on your router or switches. For example, I've recently upgraded my broadband to 1gig. A regular ethernet card will limit this to 948mbps. You won't ever get the desired speed you're paying for due to 1gb ethernet being lower bandwidth. So this is where this will come in handy if you're a regular home user and not looking to link servers. Now if you're on 1gig broadband your router should have a higher bandwidth port. On Super Hub 5's this is port 4. That is a 2.5gig port, so you'll get the max speed available via directly linking to this with your pc or through a 2.5gig or higher switch to the router. As you'll see from my picture my speed has now increased from the capped 948mbps to 1152mbps. I now have the maximum data rate my line gives me. If and when broadband speeds increase I'll then have no issue getting those speeds too. All in all the card is excellent but you do need an SFP adapter to get it up and running.

I stuck this in an old computer that I'm using as a media server and it does the job very nicely! I can stream from it at rapid speeds due to the 10G rate and it's fully compatible with my computer. Great bit of kit that performs flawlessly. Would recommend!

keep in mind you need a compatible 10gb hub/switch to use this at full speed and of course cat 7/8 cable. if you only have regular 1gb, this will still work just fine, but not at full speed. no drivers needed - just plug and ply and windows (10) recognised it right away with no issues.

Niquel la carte tourne très bien sur mon PC Windows 11, reconnue Immédiatement sans installer de pilotes (Plug&Play) . Maintenant j'ai un débit de fou avec ma Freebox Delta . Et la carte est moins chère que les marques concurrentes . Donc que du bonheur !!

Compré 3 unidades y las tengo conectadas a un switch Linksys LGS328C-EU con unos cables DAC sftp+ de la marca 10Gtek y todo funciona como se espera (no he tenido la oportunidad de probarlas con transceptores y su compatibilidad con estos). Testeada velocidad máxima con la herramienta iperf en los 3 sistemas operativos anteriormente mencionados, en todos da casi los 10Gbit

There are many many ways to dip your toe in to 10gbe networking in your home lab for the fun of doing it. Going with a card like this is one of them. I won't go into the rest of the details but with the cheap switches out there and then running cat6a or 7 cabling, its a cost effective way unless you just want to be fancy and use fiber. either way i'm speaking from a homelab perspective. this device does identify itself as an Intel chip set. There no windows 11 drivers stock so MAKE SURE YOU KEEP YOUR CURRENT NIC ACTIVE to download the latest driver for this card. It runs cool and runs as expected. I will never reach full 10gbs speeds with my setup but i can fully saturate my solid state drives and my Raid 10 NAS with minimal effort. Which was my end goal. Literally the I/O on my storage devices are my bottleneck now. and that makes me happy.

Ich habe mir die 2.5G PCIe Netzwerkkarte für meinen den Test-PC zum Testen bestellt. Da wir bereits unser ganzes Netzwerk auf 2,5G und 10 G umgestellt haben. Und es ist der letzte Rechner, dem noch eine solche Netzwerkkarte fehlte. Unser Router von AVM 6690 ist von Haus aus schon auf 2,5G ausgerüstet. Da bietet sich so eine Netzwerkkarte gerade an. Die Karte kam gut verpackt hier an und wurde schnell geliefert. Der Einbau erfolgte unter Windows 10 Plug-and-Play und es mussten keine zusätzlichen Treiber installiert werden. Sie verfügt über einen Realtek Chipsatz und somit gute Qualität schon mal vorausgesetzt. Wir sind im Internet mit 1000 Mbit/s Download und 50 Mbit/s angebunden, die konnten wir mit der neuen Netzwerkkarte natürlich auch voll erreichen. Ich habe einen 10 TB Test File auf unseren Server kopiert, von seinem PC mit der neuen Karte: Wir kamen auf einen Wert von 260 Mbit/s, ist ein super wert so wie ich von meinen anderen PC s im Netzwerk gewohnt bin. Die Internetseiten rufen sich jetzt auch wesentlich zügiger auf dem PC meines so und jetzt auf. Die Verarbeitung kann man hier als sehr gut bezeichnen, da gibt es nichts dran zu maulen und der Preis von circa 18€ für eine 2,5 GB, die Karte ist völlig in Ordnung und sehr günstig. Das habe ich schon viel teurer erlebt. Kann ich hier auch nur jeden empfehlen? Der sein Netzwerk umrüsten möchte, sich so eine 2,5 GB Netzwerkkarte zu kaufen. Von mir daher 5 Sterne und eine klare Weiterempfehlung.
