EN-9260TX-E

Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express Adapter

Description

The EN-9260TX-E network adapter for PCs with PCI Express slots offers the latest technology in power
management and Gigabit Ethernet network connectivity capability. The EN-9260TX-E’s full bandwidth capability

boasts a robust 1000Mbps capability through the PCI Express bus architecture. There’s no need to purchase a
new switch or broadband router since the adapter’s auto-negotiation feature works with your existing switch,
broadband router or hub to provide the highest network speed available (10/100 or 1000 Mbps). The adapter’s

automatic full duplex capability further increases bandwidth and eliminates packet collisions by allowing data to
flow in both directions at the same time.

First-class Reliability

The EN-9260TX-E’s exceptional chipset offers increased bandwidth and more functionality than other standard

PCI network adapters. The adapter is specifically designed to carry the full bandwidth capacity of the PCI Express

bus of 2.5 Gbps, thus eliminating collisions and latencies that exist with current 32 and 64 bit PCI bus
architectures.

Ease of Installation & Configuration

The EN-9260TX-E offers ease and flexibility of installation and configuration of the adapter through Plug & Play
technology. Simply place the adapter into the PCI Express slot in your PC and then turn on the PC; plug-n-play
automatically detects the new device. The adapter is fully compatible with Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit

Ethernet networks and the adapter’s 10/100/1000 Mbps auto negotiation ports eliminate any need for manual

switching. Best of all, the adapter is supported by all major operating systems including Vista and Linux OS.

User-friendly Setup CD Wizard and Driver*

To facilitate network connectivity, the EN-9260TX-E includes a user-friendly setup CD wizard. Its user interface
simplifies driver installation for immediate use of the device.

* The Setup CD Wizard is only compatible with Edimax network interface cards.
