SMUGDESK LE8202 Dual-Port Gigabit PCIe x1 Network Card

SKU CH-SBE8-58SGA

Adds two 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports via a PCIe x1 slot, includes full-height and low-profile brackets, and works with Windows and Linux

  • Dual RJ45 ports deliver 10/100/1000Mbps wired throughput
  • PCIe x1 design fits x1, x4, x8 and x16 motherboard slots
  • LE8202 controller chip provides stable gigabit network transmission
  • Full-height and low-profile brackets included for standard and slim chassis
  • Auto MDI/MDIX crossover detection enables plug-and-play cable connection

Dual-port PCIe x1 gigabit adapter

The SMUGDESK LE8202 adds two RJ45 ports to any desktop with a free PCIe x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot. It targets home users, small offices and DIY NAS builders who need reliable wired expansion without replacing the motherboard.

Two auto-negotiating 10/100/1000Mbps ports

Each port handles 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps traffic and auto-adapts to the connected switch or router. The x1 bus provides sufficient headroom for simultaneous gigabit throughput on both ports under typical desktop and NAS workloads.

Full-height and low-profile brackets included

Both mounting brackets ship in the box so the card fits standard towers and slim small-form-factor chassis alike. Automatic MDI/MDIX crossover detection removes the need for special cables, and plug-and-play driver support covers mainstream Windows and Linux distributions.
