2914 Series Fiber Network Adapters with WoL Installation and User's Guide

Description

14
The 2914 series fiber network adapters are 100/1000Mb Ethernet PCI
Express (PCIe) cards developed based on a Marvell 88E6320 switch chip
and Broadcom's BCM57762 network controller. The 2914 series network
adapter is equipped with one fiber optic port or SFP slot and supports the
Wak-on-LAN (WoL) feature.
The AT-2914SX/SC and AT-2914SX/LC models are Gigabit Ethernet
network adapters operating at 1000Mbs; the AT-2914SP model can
operate at 100 Mbs or 1000 Mbs depending on the SFP type in use.
Wake-on-LAN (WoL) is a protocol for remotely turning on a computer in a
low power mode with a network message. A magic packet is a network
message that a WoL-enabled computer receives and wakes up when the
computer's MAC address matches one in the magic packet.
After physically installing the 2914 series network adapters on your
Windows operating system, you must install driver software. To install
driver software, see Chapter 3, "Installing the Driver Software" on page 37.
Note
You do not need to install driver software for Linux system because
Linux has inbox drivers for the 2914 series network adapters.
Figure 1 shows the AT-2914SX/SC model.
