Dual Port Gigabit PCI Express Server Network Adapter Card - PCIe NIC
StarTech ID: ST1000SPEXD4
The ST1000SPEXD4 PCI Express Dual-Port Gigabit Network Card lets you add two gigabit Ethernet ports to a
client, server or workstation through a single PCIe slot. Each port provides 10/100/1000 Mbps capable Ethernet
and is fully compatible with IEEE 802.3/u/ab standards.
Suitable for any standard PCI Express-enabled system, the 2-port Ethernet card supports full-duplex flow control
for maximum data transfer speeds of up to 2000 Mbps - an ideal 2-port NIC for setting up dual-homed, or multihomed host configurations providing added security to corporate networks.
The dual-port server adapter is compliant with the PCIe 2.0 standard and features support for Jumbo Frames
and 802.1q VLAN tagging as well as Wake on LAN (WoL). The adapter includes an optional low-profile / halfheight bracket that can be used for installation into a standard or small form-factor computer chassis.
Backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
Applications
Ideal for VM environments with multiple operating systems, requiring shared or dedicated NICs
Provide redundant connectivity to ensure an uninterrupted network connection
Configure a dual-homed proxy or gateway system for an added layer of security
Specially designed for desktop PC clients, servers, and workstations with few PCI Express slots available
