• Duplex SC fiber connector for 62.5-micron or 50-micron multimode fiber cable
• Interoperability with existing Fast Ethernet equipment compliance with the
following standards and protocols:
– IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet
– IEEE 802.3u Fast Ethernet
• Standard Ethernet frame size (up to 1,518 bytes)
• Jumbo frames support
• 33/66 MHz,32/64-bit PCI bus master (Local Bus Revision 2.2 compliant)
with adaptive DMA channels
• Two independent DMA channels for simultaneous read and write operations;
as a bus master,the network card requests access to the PCI bus instead of
waiting to be polled
• Software driver support for Windows 95 OSR2,Windows 98,Windows NT,
Windows 2000,Windows Me,NetWare 4.2, 5.0,5.1, and Red Hat Linux 6.0, 6.1,
6.2,7.0 and 7.1.
• Universal dual-voltage signaling (3.3 V and 5 V)
