Questions about this item

How do I confirm the BCM5751 NIC is operating at full 1000Mbps after installation?

The dual LINK/ACT LEDs on the bracket show real-time link status and data activity; a solid link light at 1000Mbps indicates successful gigabit negotiation with your Cat5e or Cat6 cable.

Which brackets and cables are included, and what must I supply?

The box contains the mini PCIe card plus full-height and low-profile metal brackets; you provide the Cat5e or Cat6 UTP patch cable up to 100 metres.

Should I choose the standard or low-profile bracket for my chassis?

Both brackets are supplied; use the full-height bracket for standard desktop cases and the half-height bracket for slim SFF chassis.
