Network card zenwire 97359777 - PCIe interface, single-port Ethernet

The zenwire 97359777 network card is a single-port Ethernet adapter designed for installation in desktop computers or servers using a PCIe interface. It provides a wired LAN connection where onboard networking is absent or when an upgrade is required for more reliable, low-latency wired connectivity. The card is intended for standard Ethernet use in office networks, home desktops and compact server systems that require a single reliable Gigabit-capable network port.

Advantages

This PCIe network card delivers a dedicated single Ethernet port to expand or replace existing network hardware without relying on wireless connections. The design focuses on stability and reduced latency typical of wired links, making it suitable for environments where consistent throughput is important. The card supports standard full-duplex Ethernet operation and automatic link negotiation to match network speeds and duplex settings with connected switches or routers.

Suitable for

• Adding a wired LAN port to desktop PCs or workstations
• Upgrading a server or small form-factor system with a dedicated Ethernet interface
• Office networks requiring stable, low-latency connections for everyday tasks
• Environments where wireless coverage is unreliable or unavailable

Key specifications

• Interface: PCIe (single-port installation)
• Network connection: 1 × RJ-45 Ethernet port
• Supported link speeds: up to 1000 Mb/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Duplex: full duplex support
• Auto negotiation: automatic speed and duplex negotiation
• Form factor: add-in card for PCIe slot

How to use

Power down the computer and disconnect it from mains power before installation. Open the chassis, locate an available PCIe slot, remove the corresponding expansion slot cover and insert the zenwire 97359777 network card into the slot until it seats firmly. Secure the card with the chassis screw, close the case and reconnect power. On first boot the operating system should detect the new Ethernet interface; install any required drivers provided by the system or manufacturer if automatic drivers are not available. Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port and verify link status in the operating system network settings.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, connect the card to a Gigabit-capable switch or router using quality CAT5e or CAT6 cabling. Ensure the PCIe slot provides the required bandwidth for your use case and verify driver compatibility with your operating system to maintain stable network operation.
