PCI 32-bit Fast Ethernet Fiber Network Interface Card
A
T-2701FTX
100Mbps Fast Ethernet dual fiber
and copper 100TX interface card
Choice and Flexibility
Allied Telesis’ AT-2701FTX is the answer for
those f
iber interface cards that suppor
t Wake-
on-LAN (WoL) for either PCI 2.1 or PCI 2.2
systems but not both. Allied Telesis’ NICs
support WoL through the PCI 2.2 bus and
support PCI 2.1 WoL via external cables.
Resistant to signal degradation, snooping, and
interference, the AT-2701FTX is the ideal
solution for networks requiring protection from
electrical interference and hack
er
s.The small
footpr
int—together with the low-profile option
of the AT-2701FTX—make these products a
perfect choice for PCs equipped with small
desktop solutions.
Advanced Mana
geability
Allied Telesis’ AT-2701FTX features a full-line of
card assistant software:
A
T-Setup reduces Window Driver installation to
a mouse click.This Windows program guides
users through driver installation, updates, and
problem corrections.
AT-Stat is an advanced Windows application
that reports network conditions and
perf
ormance such as hardware resources,
network statistics, and configuration.
The VLAN protocol dr
iver allows network
administrators to configure their VLAN network
fabr
ic at the PC instead of the switch, enabling
transparent movement of systems between
switches.
TCP/IP checksum off-loading improves CPU
use by verifying TCP/IP traffic checksums at the
interface card rather than at the host processor,
improving overall system performance for
slower PCs.
Packet prioritization enables Windows
applications with Class of Service capabilities to
pr
ior
itiz
e out-bound pack
et streams to these
NICs, a useful feature for video streaming and
VoIP where interruptions are unacceptable.
The AT-2701FTX’s onboard Managed Boot
Agent (MB
A) pro
vides a wide set of industry-
standard boot protocols,
including PXE,
NetWare NCP/IPX, IBM’s RPL, traditional
DHCP, and BOOTP, supporting both BBS (BIOS
Boot Specification) and non-BBS compliant PCs.
It also includes an extensive set of utilities for
boot R
OM conf
igur
ation,
as w
ell as access to
pre-OS and network boot image files.
Offering a wide range of connector choices—
ST
,
SC
,
or MT-RJ—these cards meet the
requirements of most fiber installations.
