Ports & interfaces

Connectivity technology: The technology that enables connectivity of the device, e.g. wired or wireless.

Wired

Interface: Interface ports to connect pieces of equipment. USB (Universal Serial Bus) has become the most popular wired interface to connect peripherals. USB 2.0 supports speeds up to 480 Mbit/s (USB 1: 12 Mbit/s). The interface FireWire is also known as the IEEE 1394 standard. Enhanced IDE (EIDE)is sometimes referred to as Fast ATA, Fast IDE or ATA-2.

Ethernet

Host interface: Interface that enables a host controller to communicate with a driver.

PCI Express

Internal: The product is built in.

Yes

Ethernet LAN (RJ-45) ports: Number of Ethernet LAN (RJ-45) ports (connecting interfaces) in the device. Ethernet LAN (RJ-45) ports allow a computer to connect to the ethernet.

2

PCI version:

2.1

Bandwidth

Maximum data transfer rate: The maximum speed with which data can be transmitted from one device to another.

10000 Mbit/s

Network

Networking standards: The way in which the network is working, e.g. IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g.

IEEE 802.3ad, IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.1Q, IEEE 802.1p

Chipset: Set of electronic components in an integrated circuit that manages the data flow between the processor, memory and peripherals. It is usually found in the motherboard of a computer. Chipsets are usually designed to work with a specific family of microprocessors. Because it controls communications between the processor and external devices, the chipset plays a crucial role in determining system performance.

X540

Ethernet LAN: An Ethernet LAN (Local Area Network) interface is present, for a wired conection via a cable.

Yes

Maximum operating distance: The maximum distance from which you can operate the device.
