Introduction
Thanks you for purchasing our 10/100Mbps Fast
Ethernet Adapter. This guide is to provide the
installation and usage of this adapter for network
installers and users. The 10/100 network adapter
complies to PCI 2.1 specification and supports half/full
duplex feature which can double network speed.
This adapter supports both 10Mbps and 100Mbps
network speed, 100BaseTX operates on two pairs of
category 5 UTP cable and 10BaseT operates on
Category 3,4,5 UTP cable.
With the Auto-Negotiation technology, network speed
is auto detected. When you connect the adapter to
10BaseT hub via UTP cable, the network speed
becomes 10Mbps. Similarly, if you connect the
adapter to 100BaseTX hub, the network speed is
100Mbps. If the hub is a switching hub which supports
full duplex function, then the speed will be doubled to
20Mbps/200Mbps.
Real hassle free installation is achieved by conforming
to PCI bus. Just plug in the card and all setup is done
automatically. No more software to run !
This adapter supplies many drivers including ODI
driver for NetWare 3.x/4.x, NDIS driver for Microsoft
LAN Manager, Windows 95, Windows 98 and
Windows NT, and a Packet Driver for TCP/IP
software. Whatever your requirements are ease of
installation, superior performance or responsive
support backed up by unlimited technical support, this
adapter is the superior choice.
