New fiber optic network card makes use of full gigabit performance
MICROSENS now offers a new PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Network Card with fiber optic connection. Using this network card, it is possible to connect PCs directly to a fiber network (Fiber-To-The-Desk) with full gigabit performance.
PCI Express, or PCIe for short, is the successor to PCI and is the internal PC data bus of the future. The main advantage of PCI Express is the much higher data rate between PC processor and network controller. PCIe now is capable of making full use of the transmission speed of Gigabit Ethernet networks. Up until now, classic PCI network cards have only been able to achieve a maximum data rate of 240 Mbps.
Due to the increased use of thin clients, more and more software applications are being transmitted via networks, as well as data. Utilisation of the gigabit performance means that waiting times for loading applications and data have been significantly reduced.
Users of Fiber-To-The-Desk (FTTD) networks often have to extend their PCs with a fiber optic connection, in order to link these directly with the FTTD network. PCI Express, the new MICROSENS network adapter, provides PC users with the full gigabit performance. External media converters, which are usually operated via an existing copper connection, are thus no longer needed.
The PCIe network adapter has a SC duplex connection for multimode fibers in accordance with 1000Base-SX (single mode versions also available upon request). It supports all current OS such as Microsoft Windows® 2003/2000/XP, Linux 2.2/2.6 and Novell Netware.
The network adapter also supports all current standards such as Jumbo Frames, VLAN Tags, Advanced Configuration Power Management (ACPI 2.0), Wake-on-LAN and many more. Remote management can be configured via SNMPv1 (RFC 1157).
