10/100Mbps PCI Card
DFE-530TX
DFE-530TX Fast Ethernet adapter is equipped with an auto-negotiate
10/100Mbps NWay interface. It plugs into a desktop PC's PCI expansion
bus slot to run in 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX mode, half or full duplex.
10/100Mbps PCI Card for PC
D-Link's DFE-530TX Fast Ethernet adapter is a high-performance auto-sensing 10/100Mbps dual-speed adapter for the PCI
bus. Installable in a Pentium or Pentium Pro PC equipped with PCI expansion slots, this adapter turns a desktop into a highÂbandwidth graphic/multimedia workstation or a power server running at full-duplex speed.
Powerful Performance Auto-sensing 10/100Mbps Interface
The adapter operates in the 32-bit Bus Master mode, delivering The adapter's single connector connects to either 10BASE-T
throughputs at multi-megabits per second with little stress on the Ethernet or 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet completely without any
host's CPU. Supporting PCI clock speeds independently of the need to set configuration. It detects the connected hub's or switch's
network clock, it transfers data directly to/from the host's memory, capability and auto-negotiates to use the highest available speed.
by-passing the CPU to alleviate the host's workload.
Full Duplex Support
Easy Migration
The adapter allows users to migrate from Ethernet to Fast Ethernet
in easy steps. 10BASE-T users can upgrade to 100BASE-TX
anytime without changing driver software or network cables.
Network Security
Network administrators can install optional boot ROMs on the
adapters to implement network security. Diskless workstations
equipped with these ROMs can remote boot from NetWare or
Windows NT servers and access authorized data.
Key Features
10/100Mbps NWay interface Full duplex supported for both 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX
32-bit PCI bus master operation Remote boot supported
Low Ethernet command processing overhead Easy-to-view diagnostic LEDs
Single shielded RJ-45 connector Simply Plug and Play
UTP and STP supported Complete driver support
Support IEEE 802.1x Port-based Network
Access Control (MD5 only)
Full/half duplex operation is auto-detected in both 10BASE-T and
100BASE-TX modes. When connected to a switch in full duplex,
the network speed can be increased to 200Mbps, making the
adapter an ideal NIC for high-speed server deployment.
Comprehensive Driver Support
The adapter supports all major network operating systems,
including NetWare, Windows and Linux.
