Its hard to buy a LR Link card here in europe and I hoped that perhaps someone has some experience with a product like this. The amazon one is a 200 pound card, thats rather a joke for a 4 x gigabit card from china.
I will see myself, thanks for help....

Thank you very much.
Ofcourse 10G networking can ba a problem, but I think, that 4 x 1Gbit should be OK with most low power CPUs. I use an Intel N100 and the Pcie 3.0 port is electricaly x1 and not multiplexed, so the CPU can push about 8 Gigabits per second on this bus (stands in the 3.0 Pcie spec).
I read the link you gave and I still dont know which card could be an option for me. Most pcie cards I find are x4, but my port is only x1, so no way to attach it. Any Idea, if there is a possibility ?

HI,
I searched the forum and found no answer for this. If this was already answered, then I'm sorry but I didnt find it (The forum is really big :) ).
I've got only one PCIe 3.0 x1 port on my little MicroServer and would like to use a quad port gigabit ethernet adapter. Is there any possibility to do this ? I'm new to opnsense and the whole server thing, so I thought better ask people, who know more before buying waste :). Which chipset or which card would be best ?
Thank you for help.
