Product Overview
The Cisco-Intel E810CQDA2 2x100 GbE QSFP28 PCIe NIC is engineered for enterprises seeking to maximize network throughput and application responsiveness. Utilizing two QSFP28 ports capable of 100 Gbps each, this network interface card ensures optimal performance for high-volume data transmission and latency-sensitive workloads. Its PCIe 4.0 x16 interface supports higher data rates and improved signal integrity, making it ideal for next-generation data centers and cloud environments.
Advanced features such as Application Device Queues (ADQ) offer deterministic network performance by isolating application traffic, while Dynamic Device Personalization (DDP) enables dynamic reconfiguration to match varying traffic profiles. This makes the E810CQDA2 particularly effective for NFV, storage networking, and edge computing. TAA compliance and country of origin in Malaysia contribute to procurement flexibility in regulated industries.
Measuring 167 mm in width and 69 mm in depth, this adapter fits standard server configurations and simplifies integration into existing infrastructure. Its dual-port design enhances bandwidth aggregation or failover capabilities, helping improve resiliency and throughput across critical workloads.
