SMC’s EZ Card 10 PCI family consists of three 32-bit Ethernet
network interface cards for PCI computers: a twisted-pair card
with an RJ-45 connector and two combo models. One of the
combo models has two connectors: RJ-45 and BNC. The other
combo model has three connectors: RJ-45, BNC and AUI. The
RJ-45 connector is used for unshielded twisted-pair cable; the
BNC, for thin coax cable; and the AUI, for thick coax cable.
Features
• Conforms to the Ethernet IEEE 802.3 standard
• Compatible with PCI Local Bus specification Revision 2.0 and
later
• Provides 32-bit data transfer to maximize throughput and
optimize CPU utilization
• Software compatible with NE2000 driver
• Supports full-duplex operation for twice the effective band-
width in a switched network
• Automatic configuration setup using the PCI computer's
BIOS setup program
• Automatic detection of twisted-pair or thin coax media type
connection (2-port combo model only)
• Supports optional boot ROM for remote booting from a
NetWare server
• LED indicators for monitoring network traffic
