Description

Lenovo 7ZT7A00496 10GbE Ethernet Adapter

Overview

The Lenovo 7ZT7A00496 is a dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter designed for ThinkSystem servers. It provides high-speed wired connectivity, enabling faster data transfer for demanding applications like video surveillance recording, large file transfers, and high-performance computing. This internal adapter utilizes a PCIe interface for direct integration into compatible server motherboards, ensuring a stable and high-bandwidth connection.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with Lenovo ThinkSystem servers. Specific compatibility should be verified against your server model's documentation, but it is generally designed for systems supporting standard PCIe Gen3 or higher interfaces for optimal 10GbE performance.

Installation Notes

The adapter requires a standard PCIe x4, x8, or x16 slot. Ensure the server has adequate airflow and power to support the additional component. Maximum operating distance for 10GBase-T connections is 100 meters using Cat6a or higher cabling. The adapter supports Jumbo frames and iSCSI, which can improve network performance for specific workloads, but require configuration on both the adapter and network switch.
