    Contents of Package DGE-528T Gigabit Ethernet PCI Adapter DGE-528T Gigabit Ethernet PCI Adapter Manual on the CD-ROM Quick Installation Guide Technology Basics About Gigabit Ethernet Gigabit Ethernet is a network technology specified by IEEE Standard 802.3ab. It extends the traditional 100Mbps Fast Ethernet technology to achieve 1000Mbps transmission and reception, while retaining the same CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol.

  • Page 5: About Auto-Negotiation

    Category 5 cabling is required for 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet in order to provide full duplex operation. Full duplex 1000Base-T operation allows simultaneous transmission and reception, both at 1000Mbps, thus providing service potentially equal to 2000Mbps full-duplex service To provide compatibility in traditional 100Mbps Fast Ethernet environments (where, for example DGE-528T adapters are installed anticipating upgrade of supporting switch equipment to Gigabit Ethernet), the DGE-528T also supports traditional 100Mbps Fast Ethernet operation, in full-duplex as well as half-duplex modes.

  • Page 6: Wake On Lan

    The working relationship between a DGE-528T adapter and main memory working in Bus Master mode is powered by the Bridge/Memory Controller of the PCI bus. This reduces the CPU role in network operations, thus freeing the CPU to service other tasks, with resulting improvement in overall computing (multitasking) performance.
