[OmniOS-discuss] Does anyone know about a 10GbE Quad-Port NIC for omniOS?

[Dale Ghent]

Since you mention X540, I suppose you mean you that you want twisted pair 10Gb ethernet ports.

You're probably looking at the Intel X710-T4. This will actually be driven by the i40e driver rather than the ixgbe driver as the MAC is from the 10/40Gb XL700 series but the 10Gb twisted pair PHY is the X557-AT4

I haven't actually used these, but they would appear to be 4 ports, twisted pair, and supportable under OmniOS.
