Alfa Network 10GBe PCIe x4 Network Card

It's in excellent condition. It was used in a home server for occasional large-file transfers, with the onboard NIC being used as the daily driver. Tested under Windows 10/11 and Linux without issues using Cat7 and Cat8 Ethernet cables. The firmware was updated to the latest available.

The AQC-107 is designed to run warm (junction temperature of 108C); however, this card, on average, would idle in my system at about 60C and reach 75-77C during large transfers. The card will run warm even if you connect it at 1Gb.

NOTE: requires a 4x/8x/16x PCIe slot to work. PCIe 3.0 is highly recommended for best performance. Cat6a (or greater) Ethernet cables should be used for full performance when running at 10G.

The box comes with everything originally accompanying it.
