CorNet 100TX Fast Ethernet Adapter PCI

Supports: 100Mbps 100base-TX Fast Ethernet (IEEE 802.3u) 10Mbps 10base-T Ethernet (IEEE 802.3) 32 bit bus mastering Supports boot ROM Fully software configurable Drivers for QNX, Netware, Windows, etc. Diagnostic link LEDs Auto-negotiation for 100Mbps or 10Mbps operation on single RJ-45 network connector +5VDC, 0.5A typical

• Uses 2 pairs of unshielded twisted pair cabling (category 5 for 100base-TX Fast Ethernet or category 3 for 10base-T Ethernet)

This 100Mbit extension to the Ethernet standard allows significantly increased network throughput over 2 pairs of category 5 twisted pair wiring. The CorNet Fast Ethernet products are guaranteed to work with QNX.

DESCRIPTION

This is a 32-bit Bus Mastering Fast Ethernet Adapter for the PCI bus. It supports both 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet connections to allow a gradual upgrade to a network. If appropriate cabling is present, simply attach the cable to a 100TX Hub on the network. The adapter will switch automatically to whatever network it is attached. It supports jumperless Plug and Play configuration.
