DGE-528T

10/100/1000Mbps Copper Gigabit PCI Card for PC

The D-Link DGE-528T is a high-performance 10/100/1000Mbps copper Gigabit PCI card for desktop PC. Installable in a PC
equipped with PCI expansion slots, this card turns a desktop computer into a high-bandwidth Gigabit workstation or a server
running at 2000Mbps full-duplex speed.

High-performance Gigabit Speed

Capable of running at full-duplex Gigabit speed, this card
gives your PC 2000Mbps data transmission on your existing
Cat. 5 twisted-pair network cable. As an inexpensive
alternative solution to fiber-optic, the card allows you to
instantly upgrade to Gigabit without requiring you to install
new, expensive fiber cables. The card supports
10/100/1000Mbps network speed auto-sensing and full/half
duplex auto-negotiation.

VLAN to Improve Performance and Security

The card provides on-board screening of VLANs Tagged
Ethernet frames, allowing your PC to be configured with a
VLAN-supported switch. Your PC can be part of a VLAN
network, where domains are segmented up to enhance
performance and security.

Wake-On-LAN for Power Management

Wake-On-LAN (WOL) is an Advanced Configuration Power
Interface (ACPI) function allowing a powered OFF computer

to be powered ON from a remote station. This function
allows the administrator to send wake-up signals to a
computer. The WOL function provides a great utility for
power management of the PC and allows users to initiate
action at irregular times and from distant locations.

Flow Control to Minimize Packet Loss

The card's embedded flow control and independent FIFO
provide a means to protect against possible data loss during
transmission on the network. When connected to a Gigabit
switch supporting flow control, the card receives signals
from the switch regarding buffer overrun during peak usage
periods. The card then delays transmission until the switch is
ready again to accept new data.

Small Form Factor, Lower Power Requirement

Using a single chip solution, this card is very small in size
and consumes very little power of your computer system.
