Hi Derek,

Thank you for your response.

I would like to have the PCIe 10Gigabit Ethernet card and the USRP
connected via a fiber cable as I need a higher throughput and bandwidth.
For a application which I am currently working on the Uplink packets drop
and having a PCIe 10Gigabit Ethernet card would solve the problem.

The Ubuntu system fails to identify the ports of the of the PCIe card.

I there a posibility of using the card with the current USRP 2994-R?

Regards,
Felix
