Product Overview
The Lenovo 00YK612 ThinkSystem I350-T2 is a PCIe 1Gb Ethernet network adapter built for reliable copper connectivity in Lenovo ThinkSystem environments. It delivers 2x 1GbE RJ45 ports on a PCIe add-in card, making it well suited for adding dedicated management links, separating VM or backup traffic, or creating redundant paths on supported servers.
Common deployments include data center racks and edge locations where stable 1GbE over RJ45 is preferred for iSCSI/NFS access, backup networks, or service interfaces. When standardising builds across sites, it can be sourced alongside other LENOVO components to keep spares and configurations consistent.
For end-to-end connectivity, this adapter is typically paired with access-layer SWITCH infrastructure, and it can complement chassis expansion options such as a NETWORK MODULE depending on the server platform and I/O requirements.
Key Features
Below are the main technical characteristics of this ThinkSystem network adapter for professional server deployments.
- 2x 1GbE RJ45 Ethernet ports to provide dual copper links for redundancy or traffic separation.
- PCIe add-in adapter form factor to integrate into supported ThinkSystem server expansion slots.
- Intel I350-T2 controller family design to deliver stable driver support and predictable enterprise NIC behaviour.
- Compatibility with Lenovo ThinkSystem server families to extend or replace onboard networking (examples include ThinkSystem SR rack servers such as SR550/SR650 and select ThinkSystem tower models such as ST550).
- Support for standard Ethernet features such as VLAN tagging to segment management, storage, and tenant traffic.
- QoS capabilities typical for enterprise NICs to prioritise latency-sensitive application flows during congestion.
- Full-duplex 1Gb connectivity per port to support consistent performance for management, backup, and general LAN workloads.
- Designed for continuous-duty server operation to fit 24/7 environments in data centers and remote sites.
Refurbished Quality and Warranty
This unit is refurbished hardware, cleaned and tested by technicians before entering stock to help reduce the risk of hardware defects. Refurbished components are a practical way to extend the lifecycle of existing ThinkSystem installations, control budget compared to buying new, and reduce electronic waste.
All standard hardware includes a one-year warranty from the date of purchase (batteries, tape drives and tape libraries include a three-month warranty). Extended warranty options are available on request. Direct Hardware Supply is an international supplier of refurbished IT hardware, shipping worldwide from Denmark.
If you are building or maintaining a Lenovo server estate, this adapter is a straightforward fit for many RACK SERVER deployments where dual 1GbE copper links are required for operational networks or dedicated service interfaces.
