Copper Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-T :



Independently copper Gigabit Ethernet channels support four Gigabit Ethernet (1000Base-T), Fast Ethernet (100Base-Tx) and

Ethernet (10Base-T).



Triple speed 1000Mbps (1000Base-T), 100 Mbps (100Base-Tx) and 10 Mbps (100Base-T) operation.



Nway auto negotiation automatic sensing and switching between 1Gbps full duplex and 100 / 10 Mbps operations Simplex or

Full Duplex.



RJ-45 female connectors.

Common Key features:



PCI Express ExpressModule Electromechanical Specification Revision 1.0



Support PCI Express Base Specification 2.1 (5 GTs)



High performance, reliability, and low power use in Intel i350 Quad integrated MAC + PHY and SERDES chip Controllers.



Ultra deep, packet buffer per channel lowers CPU utilization.
