IBM BroadCom PCI Ethernet Adapter
This IBM BroadCom PCI Ethernet Network Adapter Card adds two wired network connections to a desktop or server that has an available PCI slot. The high-profile bracket fits standard full-height chassis. It is suited for administrators who need redundant links or separate networks on a single expansion card.
Suitable for legacy PCI systems only
The card installs in a conventional 32-bit PCI slot and cannot be used in PCIe, PCI-X or low-profile slots. Buyers whose motherboards lack a standard PCI connector should look at a different interface. Systems that require fibre or 10 GbE connectivity also need another solution.
Dual-port PCI interface decides fit
The single specification that determines compatibility is the dual-port PCI interface. Verify that the target machine provides a free full-height PCI slot before purchase. The package includes one adapter card with the listed part numbers.

Soalan tentang produk ini
Will the 32-bit PCI slot bandwidth limit the dual-port throughput under heavy load?
The adapter uses a standard 32-bit PCI interface, so total bus bandwidth caps combined traffic from both ports.
How much heat does the high-profile bracket add inside a crowded server chassis?
The card is a passive high-profile design with no onboard fan; it relies on system airflow through the bracket vents.
Does the BroadCom controller need a firmware update before 24/7 operation?
The adapter ships with the firmware loaded by the manufacturer; no separate update step is required for normal use.
