Introduction
The Intel X710 family of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) server network adapters addresses the demanding needs of the next-generation data center. By providing unmatched features for server and network virtualization, small packet performance, and low power; the data center network is flexible, scalable, and resilient.
The X710 is currently available in three host connections: a standard PCIe host interface, an OCP 3.0 interface, and a Mezzanine LOM (ML2) host interface.
The following figure shows the ThinkSystem X710-DA2 PCIe 10Gb 2-Port SFP+ Ethernet Adapter.

Did you know?
The Intel X710 adapters support Intel I/O Virtualization Technology, which helps accelerate data and improves application response times. For virtualized environments, the X710 adapters offer advanced features with VMDq that lower processor usage and increase I/O performance.
Open Compute Project 3.0 (OCP 3.0) and Mezzanine LAN-on-Motherboard Generation 2 (ML2) adapters are cost-effective adapters that offers the flexibility advantages of a PCIe adapter while supporting integrated networking features, such as Wake-on-LAN and direct connectivity to the server's service processor for NCSI-compliant out-of-band systems management.

The PCIe and ML2 adapter option part numbers includes the following items:
- One Intel 10 Gb Ethernet adapter
- X710-DA4 adapter: Full-height (3U) bracket attached
- All other standard PCIe adapters: Full-height (3U) bracket attached with low-profile (2U) bracket included in the box
- Documentation
Note: The SFP+ adapters ship without any SFP+ transceivers or direct attach cables. These items must be ordered separately (for more information, see Table 2 and Table 3). The T4 adapter does not use a transceiver.
Supported transceivers and cables
The Intel X710 SFP+ adapters have empty SFP+ cages that support SFP+ SR or LR transceivers, and direct attached copper (DAC) cables.
The following table lists the supported SFP+ SR and LR transceivers.
** Only supported by adapters Intel X710-DA2 ML2 2x10GbE SFP+ Adapter (00JY940) and ThinkSystem X710-DA2 PCIe 10Gb 2-Port SFP+ Ethernet Adapter (7ZT7A00537)
The following table lists the supported fiber optic cable supported by SFP+ adapters.
The following table lists the supported direct-attach copper (DAC) cables and active optical cables (AOC).
The following table lists the supported Category 6 (CAT 6) cables supported by adapters with RJ45 ports.
Features
The Intel X710 adapters are optimized for data center, cloud, and mobile applications and include the following features:
- VXLAN, NVGRE and GENEVE Hardware Offloads: These stateless offloads preserve application performance for overlay networks. With these offloads, it is possible to distribute network traffic across CPU cores. At the same time, X710 offloads LSO, GSO, and checksum from the host software, which reduces CPU overhead.
- Mobile and cloud application acceleration: Intel’s Data Plan Development Kit (DPDK) delivers an open driver where users can fine-tune small packet performance, which delivers line-rate at 128 byte, and near line-rate at 64 byte.
- Low latency: Intel Ethernet Flow Director delivers hardware-based application steering and Intel Data Direct I/O makes the processor cache the primary destination and source of I/O data rather than main memory. Combined, latency is reduced and Intel reports a three-fold improvement in RPS.
- Virtualization performance: With Intel Virtualization Technology (VT), the X710 family of adapters delivers outstanding I/O performance in virtualized server environments. These adapters reduce I/O bottlenecks by providing intelligent offloads for networking traffic per virtual machine (VM), which enables near-line rate speeds for small packets and supports almost an unlimited amount of isolated traffic flows so that you can scale your cloud environment.
- Next-generation VMDq: The X710 adapters support up to 256 VMDq VMs and offer enhanced Quality of Service (QoS) feature by providing weighted round-robin servicing for the Tx data. The adapters offload the data-sorting functionality from the hypervisor to the network silicon, which improves data throughput and CPU usage.
- PCI-SIG SR-IOV implementation: Provides an implementation of the PCI-SIG standard for I/O Virtualization. The physical configuration of each port is divided into multiple virtual ports. Each virtual port is assigned to an individual VM directly by bypassing the virtual switch in the Hypervisor, which results in near-native performance.
- VM load balancing: Provides traffic load balancing (Tx and Rx) across VMs that are bound to the team interface. It also provides fault tolerance if a switch, port, cable, or adapter fails.
