Lenovo ThinkSystem Broadcom NX-E 10Gb 2-Port Adapter | PCIe, Base-T

Deliver faster server connectivity with the Lenovo ThinkSystem Broadcom NX-E 2-port 10 Gb Ethernet adapter. Built for PCIe expansion, it gives compatible ThinkSystem platforms dual Base-T ports for copper-based networking where RJ-45 cabling is already standard. That makes it a practical choice for teams that want 10 GbE performance without changing the physical network layer. The dual-port layout supports bandwidth aggregation, traffic separation, and failover strategies across virtualization hosts, application servers, and storage-connected systems. Because it uses 10GBase-T, the adapter fits neatly into environments that value straightforward cabling and broad switch compatibility. For infrastructure teams, that means less friction during rollout and easier standardization across server fleets. This adapter is aimed at deployments where network density and host efficiency matter. By moving 10 GbE into a PCIe add-in card, it gives you a clean path to higher throughput while preserving the flexibility to scale other server components as requirements grow. It is a solid fit when the network must keep pace with compute without adding unnecessary complexity.
