Adaptador de rede EXSYS EX-6061-2 Dual 10GbE PCIe x4 Low-Profile

The EXSYS EX-6061-2 stands out by packing two independent 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports onto a single low-profile PCIe x4 card, powered by the Intel X540-AT2 controller. This dual-port design doubles throughput for link aggregation or failover without consuming an extra slot.

Highlights

• Two RJ-45 10GBASE-T ports with backward compatibility to Gigabit and Fast Ethernet
• PCI Express 2.1 x4 interface fits x4, x8, and x16 slots
• Low-profile bracket pre-installed, full-height bracket included for standard chassis
• Intel X540-AT2 chipset with hardware offloads for iSCSI, FCoE, and virtualization
• Supports jumbo frames, PXE boot, Wake-on-LAN, and VLAN tagging

In daily use

The EX-6061-2 delivers up to 10 Gbps per port over standard Cat6a copper cabling, making it a practical upgrade for workstations or servers that need high-speed NAS access, virtualization traffic, or low-latency iSCSI storage. Advanced features like Receive Side Scaling (RSS) and Virtual Machine Device Queues (VMDq) distribute network load efficiently across CPU cores in virtualized environments, while TCP/UDP checksum offload and Large Send Offload reduce processor overhead.
