## Long description

Add an Ethernet port to a server or workstation and access networks at multiple speeds: 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G and 100Mbps. This single-port, low-power PCIe network adapter provides multimode connectivity without requiring changes to existing cabling, offering support for 10GBase-T and NBASE-T standards through a PCI Express x4 (or higher) slot.
Advantages
The adapter delivers cost-effective, flexible network expansion by enabling multi-gigabit connections over existing Cat5e or Cat6/Cat6a cabling depending on the speed required. It combines the Tehuti TN4010 controller with the Marvell 88X3310P transceiver to provide low power consumption, support for autonegotiation across five speeds, compatibility with Microsoft Hyper-V and iSCSI, and compliance with 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet to reduce operating power and heat.
Suitable for
Upgrading servers or workstations with an additional Ethernet port
Connecting to NBASE-T multi-gig switches and access points without rewiring
Small form-factor PCs using the included low-profile bracket
Environments requiring 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G or 100Mbps connectivity
Key specifications
Supported speeds: 10G / 5G / 2.5G / 1G / 100Mbps
Interface: PCI Express x4 (or higher) slot
Controller: Tehuti TN4010
Transceiver: Marvell 88X3310P
Cabling: 10G requires Cat6a; 5G/2.5G/1G/100Mbps supported over Cat5e or better (up to 100 m)
Standards: 10GBase-T, NBASE-T, IEEE 802.3az, 802.1q VLAN tagging, 9K Jumbo Frames
Form factors: full-height bracket and included low-profile/half-height bracket
How to use
Install the network card into an available PCIe x4 (or larger) slot on the server or workstation motherboard. Secure the chosen bracket (standard or low-profile) to fit your chassis, connect the appropriate Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port, and power on the system. Install or update the operating system drivers to enable autonegotiation and full feature support, then configure network settings, VLANs or iSCSI as required by your environment.
Usage recommendations
For reliable 10Gbps operation use Cat6a cabling and ensure switches or endpoints support 10GBase-T. For 5Gbps or 2.5Gbps connections you can use existing Cat5e infrastructure up to 100 meters. Keep the card installed in a PCIe x4 or higher slot and verify latest drivers and firmware for optimal performance and compatibility.
