About the BCM957414A4142CC
BCM957414A4142CC is Broadcom's NetXtreme-E dual-port 25GbE SFP28 PCIe 3.0 x8 network adapter based on the BCM57414 controller. Designed for enterprise private clouds, telco virtualization, and high-frequency storage networking, it delivers wire-speed RoCEv2 RDMA, TruFlow packet processing acceleration, and hardware network virtualization offloads (VXLAN, NVGRE, GENEVE).
Compatibility
Compatible with standard PCIe 3.0 or 4.0 x8 and x16 slots across Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and Supermicro enterprise servers. Features dual SFP28 cages supporting 25GbE and 10GbE optical transceivers or direct-attach copper (DAC) cables. It does not fit OCP 3.0 mezzanine slots.
How to identify a genuine unit
A genuine Broadcom card features a green PCB with a barcode sticker listing part number BCM957414A4142CC and model NetXtreme-E 57414. The card carries Broadcom PCI vendor and subsystem IDs (14E4). In Linux, lspci detects the Broadcom BCM57414 NetXtreme-E 10G/25G controller.
Buying used
Inspect the dual SFP28 optical cages for bent pins or damaged EMI retention fingers. Confirm that both ports establish stable 25G link speed without packet errors under continuous load. Ensure the card includes the appropriate full-height or low-profile PCIe mounting bracket for your chassis.
