Lenovo 00AG560

Overview

The Lenovo 00AG560 is a network interface controller adapter designed to add dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports to compatible Lenovo systems. It uses the ML2 mezzanine LAN-on-motherboard form factor and a PCI hardware interface to deliver a data transfer rate of up to 10,000 Mbps. This adapter is ideal for environments that require high-speed network connectivity while preserving standard PCIe slots for other components.

Its design fits well in virtualization hosts and data centers where large volumes of data need to be moved efficiently. The two 10 Gigabit Ethernet links allow network administrators to separate traffic types or create redundancy, enhancing network performance and reducing latency in demanding setups.

Key features

• Dual SFP+ ports provide high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for fast data transfer.
• ML2 form factor conserves valuable PCIe slots by integrating directly on the motherboard.
• Supports Ethernet data link protocol for compatibility with standard network infrastructure.
• Enables traffic separation or redundancy to optimize network reliability and performance.
• Designed to integrate seamlessly with select Lenovo systems that support ML2 slots.
• Enhances throughput and reduces latency in virtualized and high-bandwidth environments.

Key specs

• Data transfer rate: 10,000 Mbps (10 Gigabit Ethernet)
• Ports: 2 x SFP+ for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Form factor: ML2 mezzanine LAN-on-motherboard
• Interface: PCI hardware interface
• Data link protocol: Ethernet

Connectivity and compatibility

This adapter connects through the ML2 slot on compatible Lenovo systems, allowing it to fit into specific server and workstation models that support this form factor. The SFP+ ports are compatible with 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ network infrastructure, making it straightforward to connect to existing switches and network equipment in data centers or enterprise environments.

Its use of the Ethernet protocol ensures broad compatibility with standard network configurations, supporting a wide range of networking applications and setups.

Ideal uses and environments

The Lenovo 00AG560 is well suited to data centers, virtualization hosts, and enterprise networks where high bandwidth and low latency are critical. It works effectively in setups that require separating network traffic or building redundancy for improved reliability. This adapter is a strong choice for IT professionals looking to maximize network throughput without sacrificing PCIe slots, especially in Lenovo systems that support the ML2 form factor.

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.
