D-Link® DFE-530TX 10/100 Fast Ethernet Desktop PCI Adapter Features

View 1
- Powerful Performance:
  The DFE-530TX operates in the 32-bit Bus Master mode, delivering throughputs at multi-megabits per second with little stress on the host's CPU.
- Easy Migration:
  This adapter allows users to migrate from Ethernet to Fast Ethernet in easy steps. 10BASE-T users can upgrade to 100BASE-TX anytime without changing driver software or network cables.
- Network Security:
  Network administrators can install optional boot ROMs on the adapters to implement network security.
- Auto-Sensing Interface:
  The DFE-530TX Fast Ethernet Adapter's single connector connects to either 10BASE-T Ethernet or 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet completely without any need to set configuration. It detects the connected hub's or switch's capability and auto-negotiates to use the highest available speed.
- Full Duplex Support:
  Full/half duplex operation is auto-detected in both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX modes.
- Comprehensive Driver Support:
  The adapter supports all major network operating systems, including NetWare, Windows and Linux.

D-Link® DFE-530TX 10/100 Fast Ethernet Desktop PCI Adapter Benefits

High Performance
D-Link's DFE-530TX Fast Ethernet adapter is a high-performance auto-sensing 10/100Mbps dual-speed adapter for the PCI bus. Installable in a Pentium or Pentium Pro PC equipped with PCI expansion slots, this adapter turns a desktop into a high- bandwidth graphic/multimedia workstation or a power server running at full-duplex speed.
Performance
Supporting PCI clock speeds independently of the network clock, the DFE-530TX Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter transfers data directly to/from the host's memory, by-passing the CPU to alleviate the host's workload.
Security
Diskless workstations equipped with boot ROMs can remote boot from NetWare or Windows NT servers and access authorized data.
