Review: Broadcom chipset works great with proxmox - After much frustration with the Intel based chipset, I returned it and got the broadcom chipset for Proxmox. The broadcom one works great right out of the box, with no modifications to the install needed. The Intel one crashed constantly Review: 2 Minutes -- Up and Running with Windows 11 - This is a very nice little card, that installed easily and was supported by Windows 11 by in-box drivers. My 10Gb fiber connects to a router that takes with a 2Gb Internet connection. I was able to max this connection out with ease (2.2Gb up and down). I've been using the card for almost a week, and so far perfectly stable. So... definitely recommended. But NOTE: If you want in-box Win11 driver support, you want the version of this card with the Broadcom BCM57810S Chipset. ## Features - Equipped with original Broadcom BCM57810S controller chip which make the servers more stable. - Compatible with Windows Server 2008, Server 2008R2, and HPC Server 2008, 32 and 64-bit Microsoft Windows Server Hyper-V; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7 and 6.1; SLES 10 and 11; VMware 4.1u2 and 5.0u1. - Dual SFP+ ports let you connect to 10 Gigabit SFP+ module/DAC/AOC for meeting the demands of data center environments.

The X550 has a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface, which has 32Gbit/s bandwidth. The single-port versions may be used in slower slots: X520-T1/DA1 or X540-T1/DA1 will work in a PCIe 2.0 x4 slot (at 16Gbit/s); the manual says the T550-T1 should work in a PCI 2.0 x4 slot as well, although I havenโ€™t tried it. **Q: Has anyone actually gotten close to the 10gbps connection speed for this card? pcie 2.0 has limit of 5 gt/s or about 4gpbs max. so can it be 10gb?** A: The card is PCIe 2 with x8 lanes, which is 4 GigaByte per second. 4 GigaByte is the same as 32 GigaBit, so it should handle 10 GigaBit just fine. **Q: Will this card negotiate down to a pcie gen 3 x2? i think my only free x4 slot only runs in x2 mode which is why i'm asking.** A: No, please kindly note that the X550-T1 supports PCIe v3.0 (8.0GT/s) (Compatible with 2.0 and 1.1) X4/X8/X16 Lane, and it does not support X2. **Q: does this work with windows 11?** A: I have not gotten it to work with windows 11. The seller says to install drivers 26.7 but those dont work ## Customer Reviews ### โญโญโญโญโญ Broadcom chipset works great with proxmox *by L***T on 24 October 2024* After much frustration with the Intel based chipset, I returned it and got the broadcom chipset for Proxmox.

But I'm not going to ruin my other SFPs by putting them in this piece of trash. Do not buy anything from this company. It all fails right around the 30 day mark, their support sucks, and you will have better luck with used dell/hpe NICs on ebay or server surplus companies than you will with this piece of trash. ## Frequently Bought Together - 10Gtek 10Gb PCI-E NIC Network Card, with Broadcom BCM57810S Chipset, Dual SFP+ Port, PCI Express Ethernet LAN Adapter Support Windows Server/Windows/Linux/VMware - 10Gtek SFP+ DAC Twinax Cable - 10GBASE-CU Passive Direct Attach Copper SFP Cable for Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU2M, Ubiquiti UniFi UC-DAC-SFP+, Meraki, Fortinet, D-Link, 2-Meter(6.6ft) | 0.25-12m Optional - 10Gtek ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฌ๐—š๐—•๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ฒ-๐—ง ๐—ฆ๐—™๐—ฃ+ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฅ๐—-๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿฑ ๐—ง๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ, 10Gbe SFP+ Copper Ethernet CAT6a Module, up to 30m, for Cisco SFP-10G-T-S, Ubiquiti UniFi, Fortinet, TP-Link and More --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - ๐Ÿ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** โ€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - ๐ŸŒ **Shop Globally** โ€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - ๐Ÿ’ฐ **No Hidden Fees** โ€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - ๐Ÿ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** โ€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - ๐Ÿ”’ **Secure Payments** โ€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - โญ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** โ€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/241484161-10gb-pci-e-nic-network-card-with-broadcom-bcm57810s-chipset](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/241484161-10gb-pci-e-nic-network-card-with-broadcom-bcm57810s-chipset) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
