Chapter 1. Overview
The Gigabit Ethernet-SX PCI-X Adapter and Dual Port Gigabit Ethernet-SX PCI-X Adapter are
high-performance, highly integrated, universal, Ethernet LAN adapters for PCI-X and PCI systems. The
adapters provide 1000 Mbps throughput on a standard shortwave (850 nm) 50/62.5 micron multimode
optical cable and conform to the IEEE 802.3z standards and support distances of 260 meters for 62.5u
MMF and 550 meters for 50.0u MMF.
The adapters run in standard PCI-X V1.0a compliant systems with 32-bit or 64-bit PCI-X Bus Master slots
at 66 MHz or 133 MHz, as well as PCI 2.2 compliant systems with 32-bit or 64-bit PCI bus master slots at
33 MHz or 66 MHz.
Both adapters provide the following features:
v
Support for 64 bit Direct Bus Mastering on the PCI/PCI-X bus
v
Use a shared memory structure in host memory and copies data directly from and to host memory
v
Support Boot ROM
v
1000 Mbps Full Duplex throughput on standard 50u or 62.5u MMF optical cable
v
IEEE 802.3z 1000 Base-SX compliant
v
Support Dual address cycle for access to 64-bit addresses
v
Support 64-bit addressing for systems with greater than 4 GB of physical memory
v
Support PCI-X split transactions
v
Surface mount technology (SMT)
v
LC physical connector
