1-Port PCIe 10GBase-T / NBase-T Ethernet Network Card
StarTech ID: ST10GSPEXNB
This 5-speed network adapter card offers versatile and cost-efficient network connectivity. It lets you add an
Ethernet port to your server or desktop computer and access your network at multiple speeds: 10G, 5G, 2.5G
1G and 100Mbps.
Cost-effective, multimode network connectivity
Designed for low-power, single-port network applications, the PCIe NIC offers a cost-effective and versatile
networking solution by providing additional bandwidth to meet your network needs, without having to overhaul
your infrastructure wiring. Fully compliant with 10GBase-T and NBASE-T™ specifications, the network card lets
you add an Ethernet port to your server or high-powered workstation through a PCI Express x4 (or higher) slot.
(10G network speeds require Cat6a cable. All other speeds require Cat5e cable.)
Advanced technology for optimal performance
The network controller card features advanced NBASE-T technology, supporting the latest multi-gigabit,
including new Cisco® campus switches and Aruba Networks® access points. The card enables you to connect
to NBASE-T based equipment at network speeds of 2.5Gbps or 5Gbps, over your existing Cat5e infrastructure,
without having to upgrade to more expensive Cat6a.
NBASE-T technology accelerates the speed of twisted pair Cat5e copper cabling over a distance of up to 100
meters. The Ethernet network card also supports the more common 10G over copper, and 1G network
connections using existing Cat 6/Cat5e or better cabling.
The 5-speed Ethernet network card is a powerful combination of the Tehuti™ TN4010 controller and the
Aquantia™ AQR105 transceiver, providing low-power and high-performance NBASE-T solutions. The Tehuti
10GbE controller supports autonegotiation, which ensures the optimal speed over Cat5e/Cat6 is selected:
10GbE, 5GbE, 2.5GbE, GbE or 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet). The network card also offers compatibility with
Microsoft Hyper-V® virtualization software and iSCSI support to combine LAN and SAN functions.
