P100SC
PCI 100Base-FX Fiber Optic
FAST ETHERNET Card
by AEI Intelligent Technologies
NSA CERTIFIED ACCREDITED
AEI’s P100 offers a cost effective solution for high performance fiber optic networks. It is an ideal solution for high electro-magnetic environments; for time-sensitive transmissions, such as voice and video; or where cable lengths exceed 100 meters. Moreover, fiber optic networks offer resistance to tapping.
It utilizes the popular Intel 21143-PD chipset, which means the device driver is embedded and fully plug and play in Windows, Linux, and other operating systems. The P100 includes driver support across a broad range of operating systems and architectures including Windows, Solaris, HP-UX, Linux, IRIX, NetWare, FreeBSD, and more. This comprehensive driver suite allows for one-stop shopping, and uniformity in your fiber optic network.
This integrated PCI fiber optic Ethernet card utilizes low power (3.3V or 5V) directly from the PCI bus. Subsequently, users experience lower power consumption, and the necessity to power-up a media converter using wall-power or hardwiring is eliminated. Additional savings are also realized since networking peripherals such as the media converter, or a universal power supply are no longer required.
Additionally, AEI Intelligent Technologies is the only company that incorporates Boot Rom support on their fiber optic Fast Ethernet cards. Support is provided for Windows, Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, and may popular operating systems. Thus, the P100 series offers OEM's compatibility with distribution servers, and easy of installation.
More and more, companies have learned the hard way the advantages of speed and security that fiber optics provides. AEI’s P100 series is a perfect solution for any fiber network.
Advanced Server Features - with every adapter comes AEI's PacketEngine Software suite. PacketEngine allows users to configure trunk groups based on the Physical Layer 1 (Port aggregation), as well as Layer 3 and Layer 4 criteria. A user friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides for Active Port Failover (all ports in the failover group Tx/Rx packets) Windows, Linux, Solaris, and other popular operating systems. Finally Adaptive or Dynamic Load Balancing is provided.
