2914 Series Fiber Network Adapters with WoL Installation and User’s Guide
Description
The 2914 fiber network adapter series is a 100/1000Mb Ethernet PCI
Express (PCIe) card equipped with one fiber optic port or SFP slot. The
AT-2914GP/SP model comes with one copper port with Power over
Ethernet (PoE) capability in addition to the SFP fiber slot.
The 2914 network adapters support the Wake-on-LAN (WoL) feature.
WoL is a protocol for remotely turning on a computer in a low power mode
with a network message. A magic packet is a network message that a
WoL-enabled computer receives and wakes up when the computer’s MAC
address matches one in the magic packet.
The AT-2914SX/SC and AT-2914SX/LC models are Gigabit Ethernet
network adapters operating at 1000Mbps. The AT-2914SP and
AT-2914GP/SP models can operate at 100Mbps or 1000Mbps depending
on the SFP type in use. The copper port on the AT-2914GP/SP model can
operate at 10, 100, or 1000Mbps.
If you installed the network adapter on your Windows platform, you must
install network adapter driver software. For instructions, see Chapter 3,
“Installing the Driver Software” on page 43.
Note
You do not need to install network adapter driver software for Linux
systems because Linux has inbox drivers for the network adapters.
Figure 1 shows the AT-2914SX/SC model.

2914 Series Fiber Network Adapters with WoL Installation and User’s Guide
The AT-2914GP/SP Network Adapter
The AT-2914GP/SP network adapter is equipped with an SFP slot and a
twisted pair copper port with Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) capability.
The adapter can supply power to the PoE+ copper port from the PCIe slot
or an optional external power supply, the AT-2914GP-PSU unit. See
Figure 7.
Power over
Ethernet (PoE)
20
Figure 7. AT-2914GP/SP Adapter and AT-2914GP-PSU Product
The network adapter is used as a bridge that connects two ports on the
adapter to the same network. The adapter appears to the PC as a single
port network adapter, like other 2914 series adapters. The data from the
copper port and the PC is routed directly to the fiber port without any
interaction from the system.
Optional configurable VLAN ID's can be used to tag and segregate the
packets egressing onto the fiber connection. For more information, see
Chapter 4, “Configuring the VLAN and Priority” on page 55.
PoE is a system that supports power along with data using a single
Ethernet cable. Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) is a PoE standard for
devices that provide power up to 25.5 watts. The AT-2914GP/SP network
adapter with the AT-2914GP-PSU supports PoE+.
Chapter 1: Introduction
AT-2914GP-PSU
Power Cord
When the optional AT-2914GP-PSU power cord is plugged into an AC
power supply and connected to the AT-2914GP/SP adapter, the adapter
can provide a Powered Device (PD) connected to the adapter through the
copper port up to 25.5W of power.
Without the AT-2914GP-PSU power supply unit, the AT-2914GP/SP
adapter provides the PD with limited power, depending on the capability of
the system's PCIe 12V power rail. It is typically 10-15W; however, verify
your system's specifications and derate by 20% for planning purposes.
In addition to providing more power to the PD, with the AT-2914GP-PSU
power supply unit, the adapter allows communications even when the
system where the AT-2914GP/SP adapter is installed is powered off.
When the AT-2914GP-PSU power supply unit is present, the
AT-2914GP/SP adapter uses the power supply unit to provide power to
the PD and does not use 12V power from the PCIe slot.
Console Port The AT-2914GP/SP network adapter is equipped with a USB Micro-B
receptacle that functions as a Console port. By connecting the adapter
and your management PC to the Console port, you can access the
Command Line Interface (CLI) to manage the VLAN and priority of the
adapter.
Bridge to
Connect Two
Ports to One
Network
The AT-2914GP/SP adapter is designed to connect a PC and a PoE
powered device to an Ethernet network. A PoE powered device can be a
Voice over IP (VoIP) phone, Wi-Fi access point, or security camera. The
adapter functions as a bridge between the fiber port and copper port, while
also using the fiber port for PC communication. Figure 8 illustrates an
example of a topology with VoIP phones.
Figure 8. VoIP System Configuration as an Example
21
2914 Series Fiber Network Adapters with WoL Installation and User’s Guide
The AT-2914GP/SP adapter can be used to add VLAN & QoS Priority tags
to the phone and/or PC data traffic.
To add VLAN & QoS Priority tags, see Chapter 4, “Configuring the VLAN
and Priority” on page 55. To use the AT-2914GP/SP adapter as a bridge
to connect two ports to one network, see Chapter 5, “Configuring a VoIP
Phone System” on page 65 as an example.

Supported Operating Systems
The following list shows the supported operating systems:
Windows 10 in 64-bit; Microsoft certified
Linux 2.6/3.x
The 2914 series network adapter that is installed on Linux systems uses
Linux inbox driver software to operate so that you do not need to install
driver software for Linux systems. A driver supplied with an operating
system is called an inbox driver.
For the Windows platforms, you must install driver software for the
network adapters. See Chapter 3, “Installing the Driver Software” on page
43.
