Ultra-compact 2.5GbE adapter
The Intel I226T1 is a single-port PCIe 3.1 network card built for performance PCs and workstations that need bandwidth up to 2.5Gbps. It fits a standard x1 slot and uses an RJ45 connector for twisted-pair cabling. The ventilated bracket helps manage heat during continuous operation.
Sustained 2.5Gbps throughput
Under sustained load the adapter maintains 2.5Gbps, 1Gbps, 100Mbps and 10Mbps links through autonegotiation without requiring cable upgrades. Intelligent packet filtering and queue assignment distribute traffic across CPU cores to preserve throughput on multi-core platforms. The design targets stable, high-speed connectivity for extended transfers.
Single RJ45 port constraint
This card provides exactly one 2.5GBASE-T port, so systems needing multiple 2.5GbE connections or fibre uplinks must look elsewhere. The x1 PCIe 3.1 interface supplies 5 GT/s bandwidth for the single controller. Buyers requiring dual-port or 10GbE capability should select a different adapter.

Domande su questo articolo
How much power does the I226-T1 draw when running 2.5Gbps traffic all day?
The Intel I226-T1 is designed with a ventilated bracket to improve efficiency and reduce power consumption during continuous 2.5Gbps operation.
What cabling and switch ports do I already need for this adapter to work at 2.5Gbps?
The adapter uses a single RJ45 port and autonegotiates 2.5Gbps, 1Gbps, 100Mbps and 10Mbps speeds over existing Cat5e or better twisted-pair cabling.
Will this PCIe 3.1 x1 card slow down if I install it in an older PCIe 2.0 slot?
The card fits any PCIe x1 or larger slot; in a PCIe 2.0 slot the 5 GT/s link drops to 2.5 GT/s but still provides enough bandwidth for the 2.5Gbps Ethernet port.
