Dell CMF47

Overview

The Dell CMF47 is a PCIe network adapter designed to equip servers with four 10 Gbps Ethernet ports using RJ45 connectors. Powered by the Intel X710 controller, it delivers high bandwidth and low latency needed for demanding workloads such as virtualization, clustered databases, and file servers. Each port supports up to 10 Gbps throughput over standard 10GBase-T copper cabling, allowing you to leverage existing CAT6A infrastructure for a cost-effective network upgrade.

Tested and validated for Dell PowerEdge servers, this adapter ensures seamless integration with compatible firmware and drivers. Its four-port design maximizes network flexibility while conserving valuable PCIe slots, making it a practical choice for environments that require fast, reliable data transfer and redundancy options.

Connectivity and compatibility

This adapter fits into a standard PCIe slot and connects to your network using RJ45 ports compatible with 10GBase-T copper cabling. It works seamlessly with Dell PowerEdge servers, ensuring that firmware and drivers are optimized for stable and efficient network performance. The use of copper cabling means you can avoid costly fiber upgrades while still achieving 10 Gbps speeds.

• Four RJ45 ports supporting 10 Gbps Ethernet each
• PCIe interface for high-speed data transfer to the server motherboard
• Compatible with existing CAT6A copper cabling infrastructure
• Validated for Dell PowerEdge server models for guaranteed compatibility

Ideal uses and environments

This network adapter is well suited to data centers and enterprise environments where high throughput and low latency are critical. It works effectively in virtualization hosts, clustered database servers, and file servers that require fast east-west traffic within the network. The four-port design supports link aggregation and redundancy, making it a strong choice for setups that demand both speed and reliability.

Organizations looking to upgrade their network capacity without replacing existing cabling will find this adapter a practical and cost-efficient solution. It fits well in server racks where PCIe slot availability is limited but multiple high-speed connections are needed.

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.
