9CLNO222NR-00 Gigabyte CLNO222 10G PCIe 3.0 x8 Ethernet Network Card

High-Density OCP Mezzanine 10GbE Networking Adapter featuring Intel X550-AT2 uplink with the 9CLNO222NR-00

The 9CLNO222NR-00 is a Gigabyte OCP mezzanine NIC designed to standardize server networking for OCP-capable platforms where predictable throughput and serviceability matter. Built on the Intel X550-AT2 controller, the 9CLNO222NR-00 delivers dual-port 10GbE over RJ45 with 1GbE/10GbE speed negotiation, enabling consistent connectivity across mixed-generation switching environments without changing cabling strategy.

Using a PCIe 3.0 x4 host interface in an OCP NIC footprint (physical x8 connector), the 9CLNO222NR-00 preserves valuable PCIe slots for accelerators, storage controllers, or additional I/O while keeping bandwidth aligned with dual 10GbE demands. This architecture fits virtualization clusters and infrastructure nodes that require east/west traffic capacity, management separation, or dedicated storage networking, with a focus on balanced latency, link resiliency, and clean platform integration.

Why Choose the 9CLNO222NR-00?

The 9CLNO222NR-00 supports a high density-to-performance ratio by placing enterprise-class networking into the OCP mezzanine bay, improving internal expansion headroom and simplifying standardized builds. With dual-port connectivity, the 9CLNO222NR-00 enables redundant uplinks for hypervisors and scale-out nodes, while its Intel-based design promotes driver maturity and predictable behavior across common enterprise operating systems and virtualization stacks.

Gigabyte engineers networking components for data center uptime, focusing on platform validation, interoperability, and mechanical integration that aligns with modern rack server standards. The 9CLNO222NR-00 reflects this approach by providing consistent OCP NIC deployment characteristics for repeatable fleet operations.

Key Applications:

• Virtualization hosts with redundant uplinks
• OCP server uplink for enterprise edge and core
• Management and provisioning networks
• Storage networking over 10GbE
• East/West traffic in scale-out clusters
