Introduction:

Congratulation on your purchase of the AZiO AES100A 10/100Mbps

Fast Ethernet Adapter. This adapter is designed and manufactured to

give you years of trouble-free and reliable service.

The AZiO AES100A supports full-duplex mode. Full duplex mode can

be used to obtain throughput of up to 200Mbps when the twisted-pair

port is connected to an Ethernet switching hub. This feature not only

increases the channel bandwidth up tp 200Mbps but also avoids the

performance degrading problem due to the characteristic of the Ethernet

CSMA/CD protocol.

The AES100A includes a complete set of drivers for popular network

operating systems and an optional BOOT ROM device allowing diskless

workstation to be connected to the network.
