STARTECH ST1000SPEX2T 1-Port Gigabit PCIe Network Card

Single-Port Gigabit PCIe Adapter

This StarTech card adds one Gigabit Ethernet port to a desktop or server through a PCI Express slot. It suits IT teams upgrading older workstations or deploying new thin clients that lack onboard networking. The low-profile bracket is included for slim chassis installations. TAA compliance makes it eligible for government and education procurement.

Thermals Noise Power

Passive cooling keeps the adapter silent because no fan is fitted to the board. Power draw stays low, typical for a single-port Gigabit controller, so the slot supplies enough current without extra connectors. Heat output is minimal and will not affect neighbouring cards in a densely populated rack or workstation.

PCI Express Interface Decides Fit

The card requires an available PCI Express slot; systems without a free slot cannot use this adapter. Buyers who need more than one network port should select a multi-port model instead. Verify the motherboard has an open PCIe lane before ordering.
