BCM957414N4140C BROADCOM 25G PCIe 3.0 x8 Ethernet Network Card

High-Performance OCP 3.0 25GbE Network Adapter featuring Broadcom BCM57414 dual-port architecture with the BCM957414N4140C

The BCM957414N4140C is an OCP 3.0 NIC engineered for predictable 10/25GbE server connectivity where low overhead and deterministic throughput matter. Built on the Broadcom BCM57414 dual-port controller, it targets modern virtualized and scale-out nodes that require consistent packet processing and streamlined cabling via dual SFP28 uplinks.

By using a PCIe 3.0 x8 electrical interface in an OCP 3.0 form factor, the BCM957414N4140C preserves valuable PCIe slots while maintaining sufficient host bandwidth for dual 25GbE links. Hardware offloads such as RSS, TSO, and LRO reduce CPU interrupt pressure, while SR-IOV and overlay acceleration (VXLAN, NVGRE, GENEVE) align the NIC with hypervisor and NFV designs that depend on efficient virtual switching. For low-latency fabrics, RoCE v1/v2 RDMA support enables storage and HPC traffic patterns that benefit from reduced host involvement, and boot features including PXE, UEFI, and iSCSI boot simplify stateless deployment models.

Why Choose the BCM957414N4140C?

The BCM957414N4140C provides a balanced density-to-performance profile by delivering dual-port 25GbE in an OCP 3.0 footprint, enabling scalable leaf-spine connectivity without sacrificing serviceability. The BCM957414N4140C is also designed for enterprise reliability with standards-based Ethernet compliance and advanced flow control capabilities suited to converged workloads.

Broadcom designs the NetXtreme E-Series with an emphasis on consistent behavior across operating systems and hypervisors, robust offload implementation, and long-lived platform interoperability. The BCM957414N4140C reflects this engineering approach through mature virtualization features and data centre-aligned compliance for integration into standardized server builds.

Key Applications:

• Top-of-rack uplinks and leaf-spine server connectivity
• Virtualized compute with SR-IOV and overlay networks
• RoCE-enabled storage fabrics
• Low-latency HPC and clustered middleware
• Network boot and stateless provisioning
