Secure fiber connectivity with PoE+

The N-GXE-POE-LC-01 is a Gigabit Ethernet network interface card designed for desktop PCs that require a secure fiber uplink. It combines a 1000Base-X fiber port with a switched copper port delivering IEEE 802.3at PoE+ power. This suits environments where VoIP phones or other powered devices connect over a protected fiber backbone.

Dual-port throughput and switching headroom

The card provides up to 2000 Mbps full-duplex bandwidth across its two ports, compliant with IEEE 802.3z and 1000Base-X standards. The copper port operates at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps while supplying power to attached devices. Traffic switching between fiber and copper continues even when the host PC enters a sleep state, maintaining device connectivity without active host processing.

Low-profile bracket for space-constrained builds

A low-profile bracket is included in the package, allowing installation in slim or small-form-factor chassis where a full-height bracket would not fit. No additional software or licensing is bundled; the card relies on standard operating-system drivers for the PCI Express 2.0 interface. The hardware-only approach keeps deployment simple for IT teams managing secure desktop endpoints.

Questions about this item

Will the PCI Express 2.0 x1 slot on my older motherboard limit the 1000Mbps throughput of this card?

The PCI Express 2.0 interface provides ample bandwidth for the 1000Mbps fiber and copper ports, so an older x1 slot will not create a bottleneck for this card.

How can I verify the card is correctly switching traffic between the fiber and copper ports after installation?

Check that the link LEDs on both the 1000Base-X fiber port and the 10/100/1000Base-T copper port are lit, and confirm the connected VoIP phone powers up and registers on the network.

Does the box include the fiber patch cable and SFP transceiver needed for the 1000Base-X port?

The package contains the N-GXE-POE-LC-01 card and a low-profile bracket only; you must purchase a compatible SFP transceiver and LC fiber patch cable separately.
