What the card does

This AddOn TG-3468-AO is a single-port Gigabit Ethernet adapter for desktop PCs and servers. It adds one RJ-45 connection over a PCIe x4 slot and suits IT teams maintaining Windows Server 2008 R2, 2012, Windows 7 or Small Business Server 2006 environments.

The spec that decides fit

The card uses the Intel 82574 controller and negotiates 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps speeds over copper up to 100 m. It fits only PCIe x4 or wider slots; systems limited to x1 lanes cannot accept it.

Install notes and common issues

Installation requires a free PCIe x4 slot and a low-profile or full-height bracket depending on the chassis. Driver support ends with the listed operating systems, so newer Windows releases may not recognise the hardware without manual driver sourcing.

It provides a single Gigabit Ethernet connection over the RJ-45 port, limited to 100 metres of copper cabling.

What does the PCIe x4 interface cap in practice?

The x4 electrical link gives ample bandwidth for the Intel 82574 chipset to sustain full gigabit throughput without bottleneck.

What does the card physically need to fit and mount?

It requires a free PCIe slot and a rear bracket opening for one RJ-45 connector; the board weighs 0.35 units.
