Key Features Simple way to add Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to any compatible computer Supports gigabit speeds on common CAT-5 cabling—no need for costly cable replacement Supports link aggregation on its own and with onboard Gigabit Ethernet ports(1) Supports transparent failover Full/half duplex 1000/100/10BaseT auto-negotiation PCI Express (PCIe) x4 host bus interface for maximum performance Should a cable get unplugged or a port fail, Presto Gigabit Server PCIe provides transparent failover protection, so your computer remains connected to the network. Presto Gigabit Server PCIe supports gigabit speeds over common CAT-5 cabling, so costly cable replacement is unnecessary. If your computer already has onboard Gigabit Ethernet, you can add a Presto Gigabit Server PCIe and use it for dedicated connection to a printer, AirPort® Extreme base station, DSL or cable modem, or a video server, while leaving your onboard Gigabit Ethernet port(s) available for other connections. Presto Gigabit Server PCIe is compatible in Mac Pro®(2), and Power Mac® G5 & Xserve(3) & PCs and servers with a PCI Express (PCIe) slot. Offering simple configuration, this Sonnet card is easy to use, and its support for 1000/100/10BaseT auto-negotiation and full/half duplex communication enable it to be used in most networks. |
