FAQs

Does this adapter support fiber optics?

No, the X710-T2L is designed exclusively for copper RJ-45 media.

Can I use this in a regular desktop PC?

While it may physically fit, this is a server-grade component and requires server-specific drivers and system architecture for proper operation.

What is the maximum cable length?

The adapter supports a maximum operating distance of 100 meters using compatible RJ-45 cabling.

Does it support 2.5 Gbps and 5 Gbps speeds?

Yes, it is backward compatible and supports 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps, and 10 Gbps speeds.

Is the bracket interchangeable?

Yes, the card includes both low-profile and full-height brackets to suit different server chassis types.

Troubleshooting

Adapter not detected by the OS

Ensure the card is fully seated in the PCIe slot and that the server BIOS is configured to recognize PCIe add-in cards.

Link light is off or flickering incorrectly

Verify the RJ-45 cable is firmly connected and meets Category 6 or 6A standards for 10GbE operation.

Poor performance or dropped packets

Update the network drivers to the latest version and verify that the PCIe slot is operating at x8 bandwidth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports a wide range of network speeds from 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps
  • Uses industry-standard RJ-45 copper cabling up to 100 meters
  • Robust virtualization features including SR-IOV and VMDq
  • Energy-efficient design compliant with IEEE 802.3az
  • Includes both low-profile and full-height bracket options

Cons

  • Requires a PCIe 3.0 x8 slot for optimal performance
  • Not intended for non-server workstation or consumer desktop environments
  • Does not support iWARP/RDMA protocols

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the X710-T2L requires physical access to the server motherboard. Ensure the server is powered down and properly grounded before installing the card into an available PCIe 3.0 x8 (or faster) slot.

  • Compatibility: The card is compatible with a broad range of operating systems; always check the official Intel support site for the latest driver versions. It supports standard Cat 6, 6A, and 5e cabling.
  • Physical Setup: The package includes both low-profile and full-height brackets to ensure the card fits into various chassis sizes, from 1U rackmounts to tower servers.
  • Care: Keep the operating temperature between 0 °C and 55 °C. Ensure the server chassis provides adequate airflow, as the card relies on proper server-grade cooling to maintain stability under high loads.
