About the Broadcom BCM57416 NetXtreme-E Dual-Port 10GBASE-T OCP 3.0 Adapter
The Broadcom BCM57416 NetXtreme-E Dual-Port 10GBASE-T OCP 3.0 Adapter delivers 20 Gbps aggregate throughput across two independent 10 Gbps ports, enabling line-rate performance in high-density server deployments. Built on the Broadcom BCM57416 controller and housed in an OCP NIC 3.0 form factor, this network adapter bridges the gap between traditional copper connectivity and modern hyperscale infrastructure requirements, supporting Cat 6A cabling up to 100 m per port while maintaining full 10 Gbps data rates.
Enterprise data center operators—particularly network engineers managing virtualized environments, storage architects deploying converged infrastructure, and IT procurement teams standardizing on open compute platforms—choose this adapter for its proven reliability and rich hardware offload capabilities. The BCM957416N4160C supports SR-IOV, enabling efficient virtual machine networking, and includes TSO, LRO, RSS, VXLAN, NVGRE, and Checksum Offload functions to reduce CPU overhead. Native support for Linux, Microsoft Windows Server, and VMware vSphere ensures broad OS compatibility, while IEEE 802.1Q VLAN support and IEEE 802.3x flow control deliver enterprise-grade traffic management. Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) compliance helps control operational costs, and NCSI management support streamlines out-of-band administration across distributed deployments. The PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface integrates seamlessly into existing server architectures, with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 55°C supporting both standard and thermal-constrained environments.
