Here's a ranking of the best products in this category. To give you a quick overview, we've also added some key information about the products.
1. Intel X550T2
Intel Data Direct I/O technology is a platform technology that enhances the efficiency of I/O data processing for the delivery and consumption of data from I/O devices. With Intel DDIO, Intel server adapters and controllers communicate directly with the processor cache, bypassing system memory, which reduces latency, increases system I/O bandwidth, and lowers power consumption.

2. TP-Link TX401
- 10 Gbps network - Combined with the latest 10 Gbase-T technology, TX401 offers extreme speeds of up to 10 Gbps. This is 10 times faster than typical Gigabit adapters and guarantees smooth data transmission for both Internet access and local data transfer.
- Versatile compatibility - With extreme speed and extremely low latency, 10GBase-T is backwards compatible with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet and automatically negotiates between higher and lower speed connections.
- CAT6A Ethernet cable - To maximise the performance of the TX401, a 1.5m CAT6A Ethernet cable is included which is rated for up to 10Gbps, whereas a normal cable is only rated for 1Gbps.
- Low-profile and full-height mounts - In addition to the standard mount, a low-profile mount is provided for mini-tower computer cases. Custom options give you the flexibility to find a mount that perfectly matches your board design.
- Comprehensive system support - Fully compatible with Windows 10 / 8.1 / 8/7, Windows Servers 2019/2016/2012 R2 and Linux to meet your different operating system requirements.

3. TP-Link Archer TX3000E
