S2Konnect N-20x0x and N-30x0x and the SysKonnect SK-9Exx/SK-9Sxx Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
Familiy defines a series of network interfaces that combine server and workstation computers with
the high-speed Gigabit Ethernet network (1000 Mbit/s) using fiber-optic and copper cables. They
differ in terms of technology (PCI Express and PCI/PCI-X), number of ports and transmission mode.
LC duplex connectors (fiber cabling) and RJ-45 connectors (copper cabling) are used to connect to
the network. The adapters can be connected to a switch, a buffered repeater, or directly to a second
station (see also figure 3 “Possible network configurations / Connections options”).
