PCI Network Adapter

DFE-528TX

Ideal solution for fast Ethernet connectivity

Product Features:

Full / half duplex 32-bit bus master data transfer Low network processing overhead High bandwidth for graphic / multimedia

Product Description:

The D-Link DFE-528TX is a high performance auto-sensing 10/100Mbps dual-speed adapter that provides a cost-effective way to connect desktop PC and Apple Mac to a Fast Ethernet network. The adapter plugs into a PCI expansion slot within a computer and transmits data at 10Mbps or 100Mbps using half or full duplex data transfer. It supports Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, Me, XP, MacOS, Unix, and a host of other operating system environments. Operating in 32-bit Bus Master mode, the adapter delivers throughputs of multimegabits per second (Mbps) with little stress on the hosts CPU as it transfers data directly between the card and the host, alleviating CPU workload. When connected to a switch in full duplex, the network speed can increase up to 200Mbps, making it ideal for high speed workstation deployment. The D-Link DFE-528TX PCI Ethernet Adapter provides an industry standard interface fully compliant with IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T Ethernet and IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet specifications.
