PPC-150 User's Manual

6.1 Introduction

The PPC-150 is equipped with a high performance 32-bit Ethernet chipset
which is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3 100 Mbps CSMA/CD stan-
dards. It is supported by major network operating systems. It is also both
100Base-T and 10Base-T compatible. The medium type can be config-
