Introduction 

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,

 

failover,

 

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.
