Intel E810CQDA2OCPV3

Overview

The Intel E810CQDA2OCPV3 is a high-performance server network adapter designed to deliver dual 100 gigabit Ethernet connections through two QSFP28 ports. It fits into an OCP 3.0 slot, providing up to 200 gigabit aggregate throughput without occupying a full-height PCIe slot. Powered by the Intel Ethernet Controller E810 and connected via PCIe 4.0, this adapter ensures efficient packet processing and sustained high data transfer rates, making it suitable for demanding data center environments.

Key features

• Dual QSFP28 ports that provide flexible and scalable 100 GbE connectivity for high-bandwidth applications
• PCIe 4.0 interface that supports fast and reliable data transfer between the adapter and server
• Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) over RoCEv2 and iWARP protocols to minimize latency and offload CPU processing
• Precision Time Protocol version 2 (PTP v2) support to maintain accurate synchronization across distributed systems
• Application Device Queues that enable efficient traffic management and quality of service enforcement
• Dynamic Device Personalization for precise packet classification and optimized virtual function assignment
• Compatibility with iSCSI and NFS storage protocols, facilitating seamless integration with storage networks
• Compact OCP 3.0 form factor that fits modern server architectures without occupying traditional PCIe slots

Connectivity and compatibility

This adapter integrates smoothly into servers equipped with OCP 3.0 slots, offering a direct connection to high-speed Ethernet networks. Its support for iSCSI and NFS protocols makes it a strong choice for storage appliances and database servers. The PCIe 4.0 interface ensures compatibility with modern server motherboards, while RDMA support benefits AI clusters, HPC workloads, and storage arrays that require low-latency data transfers.

Performance and reliability

With the Intel Ethernet Controller E810 at its core, the adapter efficiently handles packet processing to reduce CPU load and improve overall system performance. The inclusion of Application Device Queues and Dynamic Device Personalization allows administrators to fine-tune traffic flow and maintain quality of service, which is critical in multi-tenant or virtualized environments. Its operating temperature range supports reliable operation in typical data center conditions.

Ideal uses and environments

This network adapter is well suited to cloud hosting providers, enterprise virtualization clusters, and storage networks that demand high throughput and low latency. It fits environments where space is limited but performance cannot be compromised, such as dense server racks or blade servers. Organizations running 5G core services, financial platforms, or scientific applications will benefit from its precise time synchronization and efficient data handling capabilities.

Orders are processed within 2 business days, which includes verification, packing, and dispatch. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on destination, total weight, and selected speed. Free shipping applies to carts over $100 (excluding heavyweight items). All available options and final pricing are clearly shown before payment so you can choose the service that best fits your needs.

Deliveries are handled by major carriers such as USPS, UPS, and FedEx. Estimated delivery times are displayed at checkout and may vary depending on service level and location. Please note that these are estimates and can be affected by weather, holidays, or carrier volume. Once your order ships, you’ll receive a tracking number for real-time updates from pickup to final delivery.

Providing an accurate shipping address helps prevent delays, and changes may be limited once the order has been dispatched. P.O. boxes are supported only when permitted by the selected carrier. Packaging and handoff are optimized to protect items during transit, though oversized or high-weight products may require special handling. All shipping methods and any related constraints are clearly shown during checkout.

Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery. Items must be unused, in the same condition received, with tags, manuals, accessories, and original, unaltered packaging. Any item kept will be deducted from the refund. Start a return by sending us an email. Items sent back without approval may be refused or returned to the sender.

Some items are not returnable: opened TVs/combos/monitors 37″+, opened computers or software, electronic downloads, opened consumables (film, paper, bulbs, media, ink), custom or modified computers, special-order or “nonreturnable” items, submerged underwater gear, and opened educational media.

After inspection, refunds are issued to the original payment method; allow 5–7 business days for the credit to post. Shipping, handling, customs duties, and import taxes are nonrefundable. If an item is used, incomplete, or not in original condition, a 30% restocking fee may apply. Direct exchanges are not offered; purchase the replacement and return the original for a refund.

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.
