CHOICE & FLEXIBILITY

Allied Telesyn’s AT-2700 series of PCI Fast Ethernet
adapters include dedicated copper and fiber versions, as
well as a combination copper/fiber card for mix ed cabling
environments.

• AT-2700FX - for fiber only networks requiring
a high-performance Fast Ethernet card.

• AT-2700TX - for copper only networks.

• AT-2700FTX - for environments where 100Mbps
fiber co-exists with 10/100Mbps copper cabling.
This is a common occurrence in networks that
deploy fiber to increase certain segment lengths or
to protect data integrity in high emissions areas such
as manufacturing.By having both 110Mbps fiber and
10/100Mbps copper connectors on a single card,
network administrators need only open a PC case
once and install the AT-2700FTX card.The PC may
then be deployed and re-deployed quickly and cost­effectively,regardless of the cabling connection.

STANDARD & LOW-PROFILE FORMATS

The AT-2700FX and AT-2700FTX adapters are available
in both traditional and new low-profile PCI formats. The
new low-profile format uses a smaller 2.5" access slot,
rather than the traditional 4.2" slot. Low-profile designs
are being adopted by all the major PC manufacturers in
order to offer smaller desktop systems with expansion
capabilities equivalent to, or better than, previous­generation systems.

PERFORMANCE

Allied Telesyn PCI bus adapter cards are designed to get
the maximum performance from your PC.By off-loading
almost all of the Fast Ethernet networking functions to
the adapter card, the CPU in a computer is free to run
applications faster.The card also operates in both full and
half-duplex modes, allowing the user to double the per­formance of the network.

STANDARDS BASED

The AT-2700 series of Fast Ethernet network adapter
cards support Microsoft's latest standards, including
ACPI, OnNow power management and DMI network
management functions. AT-Setup, Allied Telesyn’s user­friendly installation utility, simplifies installation under
Windows 98,ME, 2000 and XP.
