Compact M.2 2.5GbE adapter for desktop expansion

This Vszerda SY-PEX24075 card adds a single 2.5 gigabit Ethernet port to any system with a free PCIe slot. The M.2 M+B key form factor keeps the board small, while the Intel I225 controller handles 10, 100, 1000 and 2500 Mbps links. A low-profile bracket and driver disc are included in the package.

Suits builders adding multi-gigabit wired

The card targets users who need faster-than-gigabit throughput on copper cabling without a full-size PCIe board. It is not for systems that lack a PCIe slot, nor for anyone requiring fibre connectivity, multiple ports, or wireless capability. The physical M.2 M+B key layout also means it will not fit slots wired for other keyings.

Deciding spec: M.2 M+B key interface

The board only works in a PCIe slot despite its M.2 edge connector, so the host must provide a compatible PCIe M.2 socket. The I225 chipset delivers 2.5 GbE speeds with TSN support, 9.5 KB jumbo frames and 256 KB TCP segmentation offload. If your platform cannot supply a PCIe-linked M.2 M+B slot, this adapter cannot be used.

Questions about this item

Will the M.2 M+B key SY-PEX24075 fit in the same chassis as my older PCIe x1 cards without blocking them?

The card measures 1.0 in x 5.5 in x 4.0 in and includes an 8cm low-profile bracket, so it occupies a single slot and leaves adjacent PCIe x1 slots accessible.

How can I verify the Intel I225 controller is delivering the advertised 2.5 Gbps link after installation?

Check the connection speed in your OS network adapter settings; it should report 2.5 Gbps when linked to a 2.5G-capable switch or router.

Does the box contain everything needed to add 2.5G Ethernet to a desktop, or must I purchase a cable or bracket separately?

The package includes the SY-PEX24075 card, a driver disk, and an 8cm low-profile bracket; only a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable is required separately.
