The NC3133, when plugged into a NC3131, adds a 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet network connection over fiber optic cable
for server backbones and campus-wide connectivity. This upgrade module is ideal for sites with extended distance
requirements, the need for added security, or EMI protection.
PER FORMANCE
32-bit Bus-mastering
The NC3133 offers the highest level 100 Mbps data transfer method available between the network and 32-bit slots
for high performance and low CPU utilization. The NC3133 uses bus-mastering technology to maximize throughput
and minimize CPU utilization.
Port Bonding
Adaptive Load Balancing (ALB) and Cisco’s Fast EtherChannel are two port bonding methods supported by the
NC3133. ALB provides both failover and balancing of transmit traffic across all NICs for increased performance. For
even higher performance, Cisco’s Fast EtherChannel provides port failover and balancing of transmit and receive
traffic across all NICs when used with a Fast EtherChannel enabled switch.
SECUR ITY/RELIABILITY
Network Fault Tolerance (NFT)
NFT support, sometimes called “NIC Redundancy” or "failover," enables the NIC to keep an active connection if
another NIC, switch or hub link fails by automatically switching to a backup NIC.
PCI Hot Plug
The NC3133 includes PCI Hot Plug support, which enables it to be replaced or added to a server without powering
down the system. This feature provides increased system availability and non-stop serviceability in business-critical
computing environments.
NET WORK MANAGEMENT
Standards-based
The NC3133 supports the following industry network management standards to work with a broad spectrum of
software utilities.
• SNMP
• DMI 2.0
• Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)
Server Integration
Compaq’s SmartStart
part of the SmartStart configuration process. Compaq Insight Manager
port bonded teams, and can collect and report SNMP statistics on the NIC events. The Compaq Network
Management System (CNMS) can also collect and report SNMP statistics on the NC3133.
Integrated Management Log (IML) support is provided by the NC3133 for critical event logging on Compaq servers.
Diagnostic LEDs
LEDs show link integrity and network activity for easy troubleshooting.

Fully compliant with the 2.1 PCI specification, this NIC automatically configures its I/O address and interrupt (IRQ)
settings for easy installation.
CPQNTAC
The CPQNTAC (Compaq Network Teaming and Configuration) utility allows the user to run initial diagnostics and
configure NIC teams for NFT, ALB or Cisco Fast EtherChannel (when used with a Fast EtherChannel-enabled
switch).
Compaq Total Solutions
The NC3133 provides a 100Mbps fiber-based network connection between servers and the Compaq SW5226A,
SW3323, the GIGAswitch/Router, and the MultiSwitch 700. By integrating these Compaq solutions throughout a
network, users can apply the complete set of Compaq management tools across their enterprise.
