AEI-P460TX

AEI Intelligent Technologies' Quad Fast Ethernet (QFE) card
(AEI-P460TX) is based on the Intel 21143-TD chipset. This means
the device driver is embedded into many operating systems. It is
fully plug and play supported in all Windows and Linux operating
systems. As a developer and partner of several UNIX-based OEMs, the
AEI solution includes our own device drivers for FreeBSD, OpenBSD,
Solaris (x86 & SPARC), HP-UX (PA-RISC), and other high-end
platforms.
The 66MHz bus clock allows packets to communicate faster with the
host server. Combined with a true 64-bit data path, the adapter
achieves higher throughput by widening the network pipeline. Its
64-bit interface, 66MHz capability, and DMA Bus Mastering reduces
CPU utilization and system overhead. The adapter is backward
compatible with standard 32-bit PCI slots / 33MHz buses.
Boot ROM support is also provided for Solaris, Windows, Linux, and
other popular operating systems. Thus, making OEM installation and
integration a breeze for those using a distribution server.
Firewalls and application servers on Fast Ethernet networks can now
get the bandwidth they need with the P460TX Quadport PCI network
interface card. This high-performance card can support four separate
10/100 Mbps copper network segments at full bandwidth. With
PacketEngine software, all four ports can be aggregated into a
single logical link with bandwidth up to 800 Mbps full-duplex. The
P460TX supports active failover to redundant server links so that
critical application server connections can be maintained at all
times (in milliseconds).
Unlike many "server class" adapters on the market today, the P460TX
was designed for cross platform, closed architecture support. This
means additional noise impedance was engineered into the board. The
P460TX has a clean design, high precision oscillator, integrated
magnetics, high-end surface mount discrete components, and
additional filtering. The cumulative effect is a card that is high
performance, highly reliable, and fault tolerant... and a much
higher return on investment when compared to the competition.
The P460TX is fully interoperable with existing Ethernet hubs,
switches and routers. AEI Fast Ethernet cards provided increased
bandwidth for event the most congested network.
Advanced Server Features - with every adapter comes AEI's
PacketEngine Software suite. PacketEngine allows users to configure
trunk groups based on the Physical Layer 1 (Port aggregation), as
well as Layer 3 and Layer 4 criteria. A user friendly Graphical User
Interface (GUI) provides for Active Port Failover (all ports in the
failover group Tx/Rx packets) Windows, Linux, Solaris, and other
popular operating systems. Finally Adaptive or Dynamic Load
Balancing is provided. Please, call 909-296-2022 for available OS
and revision support.
