Description

StarTech ST1000SPEX2T Gigabit PCIe Network Adapter Card

Overview

The StarTech ST1000SPEX2T provides a reliable Gigabit Ethernet connection for desktops and servers, addressing the need for a stable, high-speed network interface in environments where onboard ports may be insufficient or have failed. This standard profile card utilizes the Realtek RTL8111H chipset to deliver 10/100/1000Mbps network speeds, making it suitable for demanding applications like video surveillance recording, large file transfers, and high-bandwidth network access. Its PCI Express x1 interface ensures broad compatibility with most modern motherboards.

Compatibility

This network adapter card is compatible with systems supporting a PCI Express x1 slot or larger (x4, x8, x16). It adheres to IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3x, and 802.3ab standards, ensuring interoperability with standard network infrastructure, including managed and unmanaged switches and routers. It is designed for use with Windows operating systems.

Installation Notes

The card is a standard profile (low-profile) bracket-ready adapter, suitable for installation in both full-height and smaller form-factor computer cases. It supports a maximum Jumbo Frame size of 9K, which can improve network throughput for large data packets by reducing overhead. The operating temperature range is 5°C to 70°C (41°F to 158°F), and storage temperature is 0°C to 80°C (32°F to 176°F), with humidity tolerance between 10% and 80%.
