The EZ Card 10/100
SMC’s EZ Card
™
10/100 network interface card is a dual-speed Fast Ethernet card for PCI local bus
compliant computers. Designed to take advantage of the wider data path and increased data transfer
rate provided by the PCI bus, the EZ Card 10/100 delivers higher data throughput than comparable
ISA or EISA network cards. A true plug and play device, this card is auto-configurable upon power
up and also supports Auto-Negotiation, which automatically detects the optimum speed and
communication mode of an attached device and configures the card to operate accordingly.
Features and Benefits
• Conforms to ANSI/IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards
• Compatible with PCI Local Bus Specification Rev. 2.0 or later
• PCI 32-bit Bus-Master architecture provides high data throughput
• Single 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 port for easy migration from Ethernet to Fast Ethernet
• Auto-Negotiation for automatic selection of data rate (10 or 100 Mbps) and mode (half/full duplex)
• Automatic configuration setup using the PCI computer’s BIOS setup program
• Supports full-duplex operation for twice the effective bandwidth in a switched network
• Supports early receive and transmit interrupt to boost data throughput
• Supports optional boot ROM for remote system/network access
• “At-a-glance” LED indicators for network traffic monitoring
