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 haven’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 ### ⭐ Review *by S***T on 23 June 2017* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***H on 21 July 2021* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by L***E on 4 January 2023* ## Frequently Bought Together - 10Gtek 10Gb Dual RJ45 Port Network Card with X540 Controller, PCIe Ethernet LAN Adapter for Windows/Linux/ESX Servers, Compare to Intel X540-T2 - 10Gtek 𝟭𝟬𝗚𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲-𝗧 𝗦𝗙𝗣+ 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗝-𝟰𝟱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿, 10Gbe SFP+ Copper Ethernet CAT6a Module, up to 30m, for Cisco SFP-10G-T-S, Ubiquiti UniFi, Fortinet, TP-Link and More - Cable Matters 10Gbps Snagless Shielded Cat 6A Ethernet Cable - 50ft, Cat 6A Cable, Cat6A Cord, Ethernet Cord, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/366909157-10gtek-10gbps-ethernet-pcie-network-card-dual-port-rj45-intel](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/366909157-10gtek-10gbps-ethernet-pcie-network-card-dual-port-rj45-intel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
