Limited Warranty Statement: SMC Networks, Inc. (“SMC”) warrants its products to be free from defects in workmanship and materials, under normal use and service, for the applicable warranty term. All SMC products carry a standard 90-day limited warranty from the date of purchase from SMC or its Authorized Reseller. SMC may, at its own discretion, repair or replace any product not operating as warranted with a similar or functionally equivalent product, during the applicable warranty term. SMC will endeavor to repair or replace any product returned under warranty within 30 days of receipt of the product.
The standard limited warranty can be upgraded to a Limited Lifetime* warranty by registering new products within 30 days of purchase from SMC or its Authorized Reseller. Registration can be accomplished via the enclosed product registration card or online via the SMC web site. Failure to register will not affect the standard limited warranty. The Limited Lifetime warranty covers a product during the Life of that Product, which is defined as the period of time during which the product is an “Active” SMC product. A product is considered to be “Active” while it is listed on the current SMC price list. As new technologies emerge, older technologies become obsolete and SMC will, at its discretion, replace an older product in its product line with one that incorporates these newer technologies. At that point, the obsolete product is discontinued and is no longer an “Active” SMC product.

Fast Ethernet PCI
SMC’s Fast Ethernet PCI, SMC1255TX-PF, is a dual-speed card for PCI local bus-compliant computers. A true plug-and-play device, this card is auto-configurable upon power up and also supports auto-negotiation to automatically select the optimum speed and communication mode of an attached device. This PCI complies with ACPI and OnNow PC98/PC99 and also supports Remote LAN Wakeup. By connecting the PCI card’s Wake-On-LAN (WOL) cable, a WOL-enabled computer can be managed remotely. Software can be loaded and updated, configurations changed, data backed up and inventory checked, all from a central location. See “Remote LAN Wakeup” on page 5 for more information.
The Fast Ethernet card also provides SMC EtherGuard (personal firewall) and WiNeTool (personal sniffer tool) features and benefits. SMC EtherGuard prevents children/employees from visiting specified Web sites. It also automatically blocks Trojan Horses.

ARDWARE DESCRIPTION

Remote LAN Wakeup

Remote LAN Wakeup capability is a key feature of a centrally managed PC environment. This technology enables networked PCs to be “woken up” from a sleep or powered-off state so they can be managed from a central location, at any time of the day or night.
To employ Remote LAN Wakeup, three elements are required:
Desktop management software that can send a “wake-up” packet to a PC.
A Wake-On-LAN enabled PC motherboard that can supply low-level auxiliary power to a network card when the PC is powered off.
A Wake-On-LAN network card that can recognize a wake-up packet and signal the PC to power up.
A Wake-On-LAN enabled PC is never completely powered off, it maintains a low-level auxiliary power supply to the motherboard. The 3-wire Wake-On-LAN cable provides one line for the network card auxiliary power and one line for the card wake-up signal, the other line is ground.
Even if the PC is powered off, the network card is always active and monitoring the network. When a wake-up packet is detected, the card signals the motherboard to power up the PC. With the PC powered on, maintenance and other support tasks can be performed.

ARDWARE INSTALLATION

Hardware Installation

Network cards are sensitive to static electricity. To protect the card, avoid touching its electrical components and always touch the metal chassis of your computer before handling the card.
1. Switch off the computer, unplug the power cord, and remove the
computer’s cover.
2. Select an unused PCI bus master slot and remove its protective
bracket.
3. Carefully insert the card and press until all the edge connectors are
firmly seated inside the slot. Then screw the card’s bracket securely into the PC’s chassis.
