Introduction; Features; Driver Installation - Advantech MIC-3357 Instruction Manual

3.1 Introduction

The MIC-3357 provides three on-board 32-bit 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
network interfaces. These interfaces support bus mastering architec-
ture and auto-negotiation features. Therefore standard twisted-pair
cabling with RJ-45 connectors for both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps
connections can be used. Extensive driver support for commonly-used
network systems is also provided.

3.2 Features

• Three Realtek RTL8139C Ethernet LAN controllers
(fully integrated 10Base-T/100Base-TX)
• PCI Bus Master complies with PCI Rev. 2.2
• MAC & PHY (10/100 Mbps) interfaces
• Complies to IEEE 802.3X 10Base-T and IEEE 802.3u 100Base-T
interfaces
• 3.3 V power supply with 5 V tolerant I/Os
• Three RJ-45 connectors give auto-detection of 10 Mbps or 100
Mbps network data transfer rates and connected cable types
• Supports CardBus. The CIS can be stored in 93C56 or expansion
ROM
• Enhancements on PCI power management
• Compliant to PC99 standard

3.3 Driver Installation

The MIC-3357's onboard Ethernet interfaces support all major
network operating systems.
The BIOS automatically detects the LAN while booting, and assigns
an IRQ level and I/O address. No jumpers or switches are required for
user configuration.
The drivers and installation instructions are located in the following
directories of the utility CD.
