Adapter Overview
The Dual Port 25Gb Ethernet Adapter is a standalone card that is used for virtualized cloud
deployments and network virtualization. Each adapter port uses a 25GbE SFP28 optical
transceiver with an LC/LC cable or a copper DAC that has transceivers attached at each end.
Both ports operate at the same speed. The adapter is a PCIe 3.0 x8 low-profile card.
Feature Specification
Data rate supported per port 2 x 25 GbE, where both ports operate at 25 GbpsGbps per port
Bus type PCIe V3.0, 8.0 GTps
Bus width 8-lane PCIe bus connector
Conforms to Ethernet standard 802.3
Boot ROM 8 Mb SPI Flash
EMI FCC Class A

Front Panel Connectors and LEDs
On the front panel, two LEDs display the port speed and activity for each port. Both ports
operate at the same speed. This figure and the table explain the meaning of the LEDs for ports 1
and 2. The LEDs are the same for a full panel and a half-height panel.
Note - If your adapter is installed horizontally, the ports are numbered 1 and 2, left to right. In a
vertical orientation, the ports are numbered 1-2 bottom to top.
