## Long description

The Network card INTEL E1G42ETBLK is an internal wired PCI Express adapter engineered to deliver Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s. Designed for installation in desktop or server PCIe slots, this Intel adapter uses proven Gigabit Ethernet controller technology to support reliable wired network connections, upgrade onboard LAN capabilities, and improve throughput for office and home networks. The card is suitable for standard and low-profile PCIe configurations and supports multi-core processor environments and server virtualization optimizations.
Advantages
This Intel PCI Express network card offers energy-efficient Gigabit performance and balanced network load handling on multi-processor systems. It enables higher bandwidth and throughput from standard and low-profile PCIe slots, allows independent operation of ports without interference, and supports centralized SAN management at reduced cost compared with some competing solutions. The adapter is compliant with applicable environmental directives and includes management features for adapter configuration, connection teaming, and VLAN setup.
Suitable for
Upgrading or replacing onboard LAN on desktops and servers
Adding a reliable wired Gigabit connection for office workstations
Deploying in server environments that require virtualization and multi-core optimization
Implementing cost-effective centralized storage area network (iSCSI) connectivity
Low-profile or standard PCIe slot installations
Key specifications
Connectivity technology: Wired Ethernet
Host interface: PCI Express
Maximum data transfer rate: 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
Controller family: Intel 82576 Gigabit Ethernet controller (generation-class features)
Supports multi-core processor optimization and server virtualization features
Designed for operation in standard and low-profile PCIe slots (not suitable for x1 slots in multi-port mode)
Power-efficient design for reduced energy consumption
How to use
Install the INTEL E1G42ETBLK into an available PCI Express slot on a powered-off desktop or server, using a compatible full-height or low-profile bracket as required. Secure the card to the chassis, connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port, then power on the system. Install the appropriate Intel drivers for the operating system to enable full functionality, including Receive-Side Scaling and virtualization optimizations. Configure network settings via the operating system or management utilities to set IP addressing, link speed, and VLAN or teaming options as needed.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cabling, ensure the PCIe slot provides sufficient bandwidth for Gigabit operation, and install the latest Intel drivers and firmware. When deploying in multi-processor or virtualized environments, enable Receive-Side Scaling or the platform-equivalent feature to balance network load across CPU cores. Verify chassis space and slot type before installation to confirm compatibility with multi-port configurations.
