Product information

Description

The StarTech 2.5Gbps NBASE-T PCIe Network Card is a single‑port internal Ethernet NIC built around the Intel I225‑V chipset. Designed for installation in a desktop or server PCI Express slot, this wired network card delivers multi‑gigabit performance up to 2.5 Gbps while remaining compatible with 1 Gbps and legacy 100/10 Mbps networks. The card supports NBASE‑T (802.3bz) to enable higher throughput over existing Cat5e or Cat6 cabling and includes both standard and low‑profile brackets for flexible system installation.

Advantages

This PCIe network adapter provides increased local network throughput with support for 2.5GBASE‑T, enabling faster file transfers, reduced latency for virtualization hosts and improved performance for networked storage and backups. The Intel I225‑V chipset offers advanced features such as PXE boot, Wake on LAN (WoL), VLAN tagging and 9K jumbo frame support, while multispeed operation (2.5/1/0.1 Gbps) ensures compatibility with existing network switches and cabling. The included low‑profile bracket simplifies integration into small form factor systems.

Suitable for

Upgrading desktop or server network ports to 2.5 Gbps without rewiring
Improving throughput for virtualization hosts and small office servers
High‑speed local file transfers, backups and NAS access
Integrating into mixed‑speed networks with legacy 1Gbps and 100Mbps devices

Key specifications

Interface: PCI Express x1 (requires x1 slot or higher)
Chipset: Intel I225‑V
Network speeds: 2.5 Gbps, 1 Gbps, 100/10 Mbps (NBASE‑T 802.3bz)
Port: Single RJ‑45 copper Ethernet port
Cabling: Supports Cat5e or Cat6 (for 2.5 Gbps over Cat5e)
Advanced features: PXE boot, Wake on LAN (WoL), VLAN tagging, 9K jumbo frames, full‑duplex
Form factor: Standard profile with included low‑profile bracket
Compatibility: Windows, Windows Server, Linux, VMware

How to use

Install the card into an available PCI Express x1 (or larger) slot on a powered‑off desktop or server. Secure the bracket to the chassis using the supplied fastener and, if required, swap in the low‑profile bracket for small form factor systems. Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ‑45 port and to a compatible switch or router. Power on the system and install the appropriate drivers for the operating system in use; the card supports drivers for Windows, Windows Server, Linux and VMware environments. Configure network settings, VLANs or PXE/WoL options through the operating system or management tools as needed.

Usage recommendations

For best performance at 2.5 Gbps, use Cat5e or Cat6 cabling and ensure the connected switch or router supports multi‑gigabit speeds. When deploying in virtualization or storage environments, enable jumbo frames and ensure driver and firmware are up to date to maximize throughput and stability. Use the low‑profile bracket for compact systems and verify you have a free PCIe x1 or larger slot before installation.
