9CLN4224NR-00 Gigabyte CLN4224 10G PCIe 3.0 x8 Ethernet Network Card

High-Density PCIe 3.0 x8 Quad-Port 10GbE Base-T NIC for copper switching with the 9CLN4224NR-00

The 9CLN4224NR-00 is a Full-Height Half-Length (FHHL) PCIe 3.0 x8 network interface card designed to add four 10GBASE-T copper Ethernet ports to enterprise rack servers without changing the existing switching or cabling model. Using an Intel X550-AT2 controller architecture, the 9CLN4224NR-00 supports both 10GbE and 1GbE link rates, enabling straightforward migrations from 1GbE while maintaining deterministic host connectivity.

For systems engineers, the 9CLN4224NR-00 aligns well with virtualization clusters and storage nodes where bandwidth and separation matter. The PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface provides sufficient headroom for multi-port 10GbE traffic, while the quad-port layout enables redundant uplinks, segmented VM networks, and dedicated storage paths over iSCSI or NFS on copper. The FHHL mechanical profile of the 9CLN4224NR-00 supports broad server compatibility and serviceability in standard chassis, with no reliance on optics, no DPU offload model, and no wireless functions that complicate platform baselines.

Why Choose the 9CLN4224NR-00?

The 9CLN4224NR-00 delivers a strong density-to-slot ratio by consolidating four 10GbE Base-T interfaces into a single PCIe 3.0 x8 adapter, reducing slot consumption while improving link redundancy and scaling options. It is suited to environments that prioritize predictable copper connectivity, simplified spares strategy, and consistent deployment patterns across virtualization hosts, storage servers, and edge/ROBO footprints.

Gigabyte designs enterprise components with an emphasis on platform interoperability, controlled lifecycle management, and mechanical fit for data centre service workflows, supporting modern standards for rack integration and operational reliability.

Key Applications:

• Virtualization hosts
• iSCSI storage networking
• NFS storage networking
• Edge/ROBO server uplinks
• Redundant 10GbE copper connectivity
