10/100/1000 Base-TX Ethernet PCI-X Adapter (FC 1979, 5701; CCIN 5701)

The 10/100/1000 Base-TX Ethernet PCI-X Adapter is a high-performance, highly integrated, universal Ethernet LAN adapter for PCI-X and PCI systems. The adapter provides 10/100/1000 Mbps connectivity by using standard unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable for distances of up to 100 meters. It conforms to IEEE 802.3ab 1000 Base-T standard. The adapter is designed to run in standard PCI-X V1.0a compliant systems with 32 or 64 bit PCI-X Bus Master slots at 66 or 133 MHz, and in PCI 2.2 compliant systems with 32 or 64 bit PCI bus master slots at 33 or 66 MHz. The adapter runs on 5.0 V and 3.3 V aux.
