32-bit PCI 2.2 Fast Ethernet card

The SMC1244TX is a 32-bit PCI 2.2 network interface card that adds wired Ethernet to desktop systems with a free PCI slot. It supports 10/20/100/200Mbps speeds and complies with IEEE802.3 and IEEE802.3u standards. The card auto-configures on power-up, so no manual setup is required. It suits older PCs or servers that lack onboard networking or need a second port.

Single RJ45 connector and low-profile build

A single RJ45 jack accepts Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP cable for 10Base-T and Category 5 for 100Base-TX links. The board measures 4.8" x 1.7" and weighs 0.1 lbs, fitting easily into low-profile or space-constrained chassis. Two LEDs show link status and activity at a glance. Operating range is 0° to 55°C at 10% to 90% non-condensing humidity.

Resource Disk and User Guide included

The package ships with a Resource Disk that supplies drivers for legacy operating systems and a printed User Guide for installation reference. Wake On LAN is not supported, so remote power-on via network packet is unavailable. Buyers who need gigabit throughput, Wake On LAN or a second Ethernet port should select a different adapter.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the 32-bit PCI 2.2 bus cap this card at?

The 32-bit PCI 2.2 bus provides enough bandwidth for the card's rated 10/20/100/200Mbps speeds, so the interface does not limit Fast Ethernet performance.

What slot and bracket height does the SMC1244TX require?

It fits a standard 32-bit PCI slot and uses a full-height bracket measuring 4.8" x 1.7".

How do I install the driver, and what step is often missed?

Insert the card, boot the system, then run the setup from the included Resource Disk; the step often missed is launching the installer instead of relying on auto-configuration alone.
