Lenovo ThinkSystem X710-DA2, PCIe, 10Gb, 2-Port SFP+, Ethernet Adapter
- VXLAN/NVGRE 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

Frequently Asked Questions
What primary server platforms are compatible with the Lenovo 7ZT7A00537 NIC? +
The Lenovo 7ZT7A00537 is specifically engineered for integration with Lenovo ThinkSystem rack and tower servers. It is optimized to provide high-performance network connectivity within the existing ThinkSystem ecosystem, ensuring seamless hardware compatibility and firmware integration. Before deployment, always verify your specific server model’s PCIe slot configuration and physical chassis clearance to ensure a perfect fit for this fiber network adapter.
Does the 7ZT7A00537 support advanced virtualization offloading features? +
Yes, this adapter is designed to handle high-density virtualization environments by offloading critical networking tasks from the server CPU. By utilizing hardware-level features, the card reduces host processor overhead, which significantly improves overall virtual machine performance and density. This makes it an ideal choice for data centers running demanding hypervisor workloads where consistent throughput and minimized latency are essential requirements.
What type of physical fiber cabling should be used with this Lenovo adapter? +
This network interface card is designed for fiber-optic connectivity, typically utilizing standard SFP+ transceiver modules to connect to your existing fiber infrastructure. You should use compatible multimode or single-mode fiber optic cables based on your specific reach and distance requirements. Ensure that your transceivers match the cable type and the port speed specifications to maintain link integrity and optimal signal strength across your network.
How does the 7ZT7A00537 improve network performance in a data center environment? +
This adapter provides high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity that prevents bottlenecks in high-traffic enterprise applications.
