## Summary description

The Sonnet G2A5E-1X-E is an internal interface card featuring an RJ-45 output and PCI host interface. It supports both male and female connections and comes in a multicolour design. The passive cooling type ensures reliable performance without the need for active cooling solutions, making it ideal for various applications.

## Long description

The Sonnet G2A5E-1X-E Solo2.5G PCIe Card is an internal network interface card that adds an RJ45 port to computers with PCIe slots, providing multi-gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Using NBASE-T technology, it enables 2.5 Gb/s link speeds over existing Cat 5e or better cabling when paired with a compatible 2.5GbE or NBASE-T-capable 10GbE switch. The card also supports 1 Gb/s and 100 Mb/s links for compatibility with legacy switches and networks.
Advantages
This internal PCIe RJ45 interface card delivers faster network transfers without the need to rewire existing Cat 5e cabling and fits standard PCI host interfaces. It supports plug-in installation with no additional driver software required for common Windows and Linux environments, offers backward compatibility with Gigabit and Fast Ethernet, and enables noticeably faster transfers to Network Attached Storage (NAS) when connected to a 2.5GbE-capable switch or storage device.
Suitable for
Upgrading desktop or workstation network ports to 2.5 GbE via PCIe
Improving NAS file transfer speeds on existing Cat 5e cabling
Offices seeking higher bandwidth without rewiring
Systems using PCI host interfaces where a low-profile internal card is required

How to use
Install the Sonnet G2A5E-1X-E card into an available PCIe slot in a compatible Windows or Linux computer. Connect an RJ45 cable from the card to a 2.5GbE-capable switch, a 10GbE switch with NBASE-T support, or directly to 2.5GbE-enabled storage. After physical installation, configure the network adapter settings via Windows Device Manager or the appropriate Linux command-line or graphical networking utility. The card will negotiate the highest supported link speed with the connected switch.
Usage recommendations
For 2.5 Gb/s performance, use Cat 5e or better cabling and connect to a switch or storage device that supports 2.5GbE or NBASE-T. If the network switch does not support NBASE-T, the adapter will operate at 1 Gb/s or 100 Mb/s depending on the switch capability.
