## Summary description

The StarTech.com 1-Port 2.5Gbps NBASE-T PoE Network Card features Intel I225-V technology, enabling data transfer speeds of up to 2500 Mbit/s. It supports 802.3af/at PoE+ and connects via PCI Express, enhancing server performance with multi-gigabit capabilities.

## Long description

The StarTech.com 1-Port 2.5Gbps NBASE-T PoE Network Card (Intel I225-V) adds a 2.5Gbps Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) port to a PCI Express-enabled computer. It uses the Intel I225-V chipset with Intel vPro technology and supports multispeed operation (2.5/1Gbps and 100/10Mbps) for compatibility with both modern and legacy network equipment. The card is NBASE-T (802.3bz) compatible and works over Cat5e or Cat6 cabling.
Advantages
This PCIe network card provides up to 2.5GBASE-T network speeds while maintaining backward compatibility with 1Gbps and 100Mbps networks. It supports IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE standards, delivering up to 48V DC and 25.5W to powered devices, which removes the need for separate power injectors for remote devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points. Intel vPro support enables remote management and troubleshooting, and the package includes both standard- and low-profile brackets for use in full-size and small form-factor systems. The card is compatible with Windows, Windows Server, and Linux.
Suitable for
Connecting multi-gig devices and upgrading desktops or servers to 2.5GbE
Powering remote networked devices (IP cameras, access control, wireless APs) via PoE
Improving throughput for file transfers, backups, streaming, and network storage
Small form-factor PCs or servers using the included low-profile bracket

How to use
Install the card into an available x1 PCIe slot (PCIe 2.0 or higher) on a powered-down computer, secure the bracket, and connect the network cable to the RJ45 port. Use Cat5e or Cat6 cabling to achieve 2.5GBASE-T speeds. Enable PoE output through the host or compatible Power Sourcing Equipment according to your network design. Install the appropriate drivers for your operating system (Windows, Windows Server, or Linux) and configure network settings or Intel vPro management tools as required.
Usage recommendations
For optimal 2.5Gbps performance use Cat5e or better cabling and ensure the PCIe slot meets the minimum PCIe 2.0 x1 requirement. When powering devices via PoE, verify that the connected endpoints are IEEE 802.3af/at compliant and that total power load does not exceed the card’s supported output. Apply the latest drivers from StarTech.com and enable Intel vPro features only if remote management is needed.
