Dell Broadcom 57416 Dual Port 10 GB SFP+ Rear Mezzanine

This Dell Broadcom 57416 rear mezzanine network card provides two 10GbE SFP+ ports through the server’s rear LOM/mezzanine bay, preserving standard PCIe slots while adding high-speed network connectivity. It is typically used in Dell PowerEdge R440, R540, R6415, R7415, and XR2 systems configured with the rear mezzanine slot, and connects through SFP+ transceivers or direct-attach copper cables to 10GbE switch ports. Compatibility depends on the chassis having the correct rear LOM/mezzanine bay available, firmware support for the Broadcom 57416 controller, and the SFP+ optics or DAC cables being appropriate for the attached network switch.
