One User's Guide
Each card is clearly displayed below with major components.
This User's Guide is used for the 100/10M PCI Adapter with wake on LAN function which supports M/B with PCI 2.2 spec. It is a 32-bit adapter for using in personal computers with a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) computer bus to eliminate I/O bottle necks and to reduce CPU loading using bus master architecture. Wake on LAN (for PCI 2.2) function supports you to turn on PCs from a sleep state over the network remotely during off-hours. It is a Full-Duplex adapter connected to an Ethernet net­work with a single connection over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable and can auto-sense either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps by full auto-detection.
Single-chip controller complies to PCI local bus specification revision 2.2
Conform with IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX standards
Support Wake on LAN function (Work with PCI 2.2
motherboard)
Support ACPI, PCI power management (Work with PCI 2.2 motherboard)
High performance bus master architecture for low CPU and bus utilization
Single RJ-45 connector for using at either 10 or 100Mbps speed
On-board socket for an optional remote boot ROM
Provide diagnostic LED to monitor linking status
Provide high performance network drivers such as ODI, NDIS, NDIS3, NDIS4, NDIS5, UNIX,etc.
Support PCI 2.2 For Wake on LAN Function (With Cable)
LED Indicator
The LED indicators on the rear bracket of each card for tracking network linking status When working on PCI 2.2 for Wake On LAN
LINK/ACT The LED ON indicates green when the card
is connected to 100/10M network. The LED indicators flash when there is trans mission of data occurring at the card.

Technical Specification
Note: Make sure you have the correct wiring. To reliably operate your network at 100 Mbps, you must use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Category 5 or better Data Grade wire. While Category 3 or 4 wire may initially seem to work, it will soon cause data loss. The higher speed needs higher quality wire. For 10 Mbps operation, you can use either UTP Category 3, 4, or 5 Data Grade wire.
Figure A : Twisted-Pair Cable Connection
l Using the RJ-45 plug and twisted-pair cable, connect
the network interface card to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX hub (concentrator). Note that the maximum cable length between a hub and any computer is 100 meters (328 feet).
If you want to view or change the configuration of your Ethernet card, you can perform setup program on the dis­tributed diskette.
Device Drivers on Diskette
The Driver Diskette contains several device drivers. These drivers are described below. The utility diskette also con­tains more updated information on configuring and install­ing these drivers with the network operating system of your choice.
README File
Driver setup to the card is described in the README.DOC file found on the diskette provided. Please take a few min­utes to print and read this file so that you don't miss any important notices.
Note: Please also refer to README.DOC file for more about Wake on LAN function.
ODI The ODI drivers are used when the card is
installed in a Novell NetWare network.
NDIS The NDIS driver is used by Microsoft LAN
Manager, Windows for Workgroups, Banyan VINES, DECnet Pathworks, WIN/TCP PathWay Access, IBM LAN Support Program and 3Com's 3+ Open, among others.
NDIS3 The NDIS 3.X drivers are used by WFW 3.11/
NT 3.51/Win 95.
