Quick Installation Guide

1Step is designed to simplify the process of configuring the PC Card to run with NetWare or other network operating systems. To quickly install and configure your card, do the following:

1.Install the PC Card into a Type II PCMCIA slot.

2.Insert the driver diskette that comes with your package into the floppy drive.

3.Run Install to set up network drivers and configure your card.

4.Use the 1Step program to run diagnostics on the adapter card if required.

5.Refer to the Software Installation Advisory section in Chapter 2 if you encountered any problem during installation.

Tip: When the PC Card is inserted into the PCMCIA slot, it is automatically detected by the Card Services Super Client driver. The Super Client sets up the PC Card to enable Fax/Modem functions only. You still need Accton’s Network Client drivers to activate the LAN function and provide simultaneous operations for LAN and Fax/Modem functions. If the Card and Socket Services Program is unavailable, Accton’s Network Client drivers can be used to provide similar services.

Note: Simultaneous operations for LAN and Fax/Modem functions are not supported for Windows NT. (Refer to Chapter 2 for more details.)

EN2218 specifications

Accton Technology EN2218 is a versatile and robust networking device designed primarily for enterprise and service provider applications. Known for its compact design and high efficiency, the EN2218 is particularly well-suited for environments where space and power consumption are critical factors. This device integrates advanced networking technologies and features that ensure it can handle a variety of tasks with ease.

One of the standout characteristics of the EN2218 is its scalability. It supports multiple configurations, allowing enterprises to adapt the device to their specific networking needs. This flexibility makes it ideal for a range of applications, from small offices to large data centers, where the demand for high-capacity network switching is ever-increasing.

The EN2218 boasts impressive throughput capabilities. Equipped with multiple Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet ports, it provides ample bandwidth for simultaneous data transfers. This ensures smooth operation for data-intensive applications such as video conferencing, large file transfers, and cloud computing, fostering an improved user experience without bottlenecks.

Security is a significant focus for networking equipment, and the EN2218 does not disappoint. It features advanced security protocols that protect data integrity and prevent unauthorized access. With support for Virtual Private Network (VPN) configurations, users can ensure secure connections over public networks, making the device ideal for remote work setups.

Additionally, the EN2218 supports advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features, allowing for prioritization of critical data streams. This is essential for businesses requiring real-time data processing, such as VoIP or video streaming services. With QoS, users can manage bandwidth effectively, ensuring that priority applications receive the resources they need for optimal performance.

Another key technology integrated into the EN2218 is its support for PoE (Power over Ethernet). This allows network cables to transfer power alongside data, reducing the need for separate power supplies and enhancing installation flexibility. This is particularly beneficial for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.

The EN2218 also includes an intuitive web-based interface for easy management and configuration. Network administrators can quickly set up the device, monitor performance, and troubleshoot issues without requiring extensive technical expertise. This usability factor is critical in reducing the total cost of ownership and streamlining network operations.

In summary, Accton Technology EN2218 is a feature-rich networking solution that combines scalability, security, throughput, and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for diverse networking environments. Its emphasis on advanced technologies ensures that it meets the evolving demands of modern enterprises.
