Intel X710T2LBLK

Overview

The Intel X710T2LBLK is a PCI Express 3.0 network adapter designed to deliver dual Gigabit Ethernet connections with speeds ranging from 100 megabit up to 10 gigabit per second. It is built to enhance server and workstation networking by offloading packet processing and traffic management from the CPU to the card itself, ensuring efficient data handling and reduced latency. This adapter supports multiple Ethernet speeds and cable types, making it adaptable to both current and future network infrastructures.

Key features

• Two RJ45 ports that provide flexible copper networking options for diverse setups
• Supports a wide range of Ethernet speeds including 100 Mb, 1 GbE, 2.5 GbE, 5 GbE, and 10 GbE to match evolving network demands
• Compatible with Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 6A cables up to 100 meters, allowing cost-effective or high-performance deployments
• PCIe 3.0 x8 interface ensures sufficient bandwidth to keep both ports fully utilized, ideal for virtualized environments and heavy data streams
• Intel X710-AT2 controller manages packet processing, quality of service, and traffic shaping directly on the card to reduce CPU load
• Built-in virtualization support with Intel VT-c and SR-IOV enables dedicated resource allocation to virtual machines, lowering latency and improving I/O efficiency
• On-chip quality of service prioritizes critical traffic such as voice and video, enhancing performance in latency-sensitive applications

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
