So an x4 PCIe2 slot has..... 2Gb/sec transfer capability. 10gbe is 1.2Gb/sec transfer speeds, which falls nicely within a PCIe x4 slot. If you're computer can drive data that quickly is another question. A single consumer SATA SSD can only do 400-500MB/sec , and SATA3 can only do 600MB maximum, which is under the speed of the 10gbe. So unless you have a RAID setup with SSDs, you cannot exceed the ethernet connection. Or, a nice NVMe m.2 drive can do 3600MB/sec easily, which will hurt the 10gbe connection. **Q: can this work as a 10gigabit connection in between 2 systems if both have one of these like from a file server to a workstation pc** A: Yes. That's exactly how I'm using a pair of them, between a Linux file server and desktop. I manually configured IP addresses and routes. **Q: Is this card low profile? does it come with the low profile bracket?** A: The card comes with a standard size bracket but a low profile bracket is in the box. ## Frequently Bought Together - ASUS XG-C100C 10G Network Adapter PCI-E x4 Card with Single RJ-45 Port and Built-in QoS for use with Windows 10/8.1/8/7 and Linux Kernel 4.4/4.2/3.6/3.2 (XG-C100C) - TRENDnet 6-Port 10G Switch, 4 x 2.5G RJ-45 Base-T Ports, 2 x 10G RJ-45 Ports, 60Gbps Switching Capacity, Wall Mountable, 10 Gigabit Network Connections, Lifetime Protection, Black, TEG-S762 --- ## 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.co.uk/products/250051572-asus-xg-c100c-10g-network-adapter-pci-e-x4-card](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/250051572-asus-xg-c100c-10g-network-adapter-pci-e-x4-card) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-12*
