Netwerkkaart Supermicro AOC-STG-B2T 10000 Mbit/s PCI Express bedraad

The Supermicro AOC-STG-B2T is a 10GbE internal network card that connects via PCI Express and supports wired Ethernet environments. It is built around the Broadcom NetXtreme BCM57416 controller and provides a maximum data transfer rate of 10000 Mbit/s, supporting IEEE 802.1Q for VLAN tagging and modern datacenter requirements.

Advantages

The adapter offers backward compatibility through auto-negotiation between 1GbE and 10GbE, hardware offloads such as Broadcom TruFlow to reduce CPU load and improve VM density, and support for VXLAN, NVGRE and Geneve tunnelling. NPAR (NIC Partitioning) provides flexible virtual NIC segmentation for different networking needs, and the PCI Express host interface ensures low-latency connectivity for high-throughput applications.

Suitable for

• Hypervisor hosts and virtualized servers
• Cloud-scale datacenter networks
• High-throughput storage and backup traffic
• Enterprise networks requiring VLAN tagging (IEEE 802.1Q)

How to use

Install the AOC-STG-B2T into an available PCI Express slot on a compatible server motherboard, secure the card and connect the appropriate SFP+/10GBASE-T cable to the Ethernet port. Ensure the system BIOS and operating system have the required Broadcom drivers installed or update them from the vendor. Configure network settings, VLANs and tunnelling (VXLAN/NVGRE/Geneve) in the host OS or hypervisor management interface as required for your environment.

Recommendations

Use the Supermicro AOC-STG-B2T in systems with up-to-date Broadcom drivers and sufficient PCIe lane allocation. For virtualization, enable hardware offloads and NPAR where supported to reduce CPU usage and increase VM density. Verify cable and SFP+/10GBASE-T compatibility and configure VLAN and tunnelling options according to your network design.
