BCM957416N4160C

Dual-Port 10GBASE-T Ethernet PCI Express 3.0 x8 OCP 3.0 Small-FormFactor Card

The Broadcom® BCM957416N4160C is a dual-port 10 Gb/s PCI Express 3.0 x8 Network Adapter Card designed to the Open Compute Project (OCP) 3.0 Design Specification in small form factor with two 10GBASE-T network connectors. The adapter supports 10GBASE-T and 1000BASE-T Ethernet on Category 6, 6A, or 7 twisted-pair cables. The 1000BASE-T can operate on standard Category 5e UTP. The card uses the Broadcom BCM57416 10GBASE-T controller.
