PCIe Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Network Interface Cards
1000Base-SX
N-GXE-xx-02 Series
Description
The N-GXE-xx-02 Series is a Fiber Gigabit Ethernet to PCIe bus adapter that fully complies with all IEEE 802.3z and 1000Base-SX standards. It provides up to 2000 Mbps full-duplex bandwidth capacity to support high-end servers. In addition, with advanced functions like VLAN filtering packet processing, link aggregation, smart load balancing, fail-over, and Wake-on-LAN, the adapter provides enhanced performance, flexible configuration and secure networking for users in a standard-based environment. An LED indicator on the bracket displays link status, activity and speed.
