EtherFast 10/100 LAN Card
Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Fast Ethernet is a standard of networking built specifically for speed-intensive network applications like video-
conferencing, multimedia development, imaging, and complex databases. Capable of sending and receiving data
at 100 megabits-per-second in half-duplex mode, and 200Mbps in full duplex, Fast Ethernet technology is at least
10 times as fast as traditional 10BaseT networks.
Built to run with the fastest network applications, the EtherFast® 10/100 LAN Card is a high performance
network adapter for desktop computers with 32-bit PCI expansion slots. The EtherFast® 10/100 LAN Card is
ready to run with both 10BaseT and 100BaseTX networks right out of the box and the Card's 10/100 RJ-45 port
automatically detects your network's maximum speed and adjusts itself accordingly.
The EtherFast® 10/100 LAN Card from Linksys also features Wake-On-LAN (WOL) event management. If your PCI
motherboard has built-in WOL support (the Card supports PME only), you'll be able to utilize this unique
management feature. You can remotely turn on any computer with a WOL network Adapter. If you don't have WOL
support on your motherboard or you have no need for it, the EtherFast® 10/100 LAN Card will operate normally
anyway. If your mission critical applications require blinding network speed, the EtherFast® 10/100 LAN Card is
the best value for your networking dollar.
