PCIe LP 2-Port 1GbE TX Adapter (FC 5281; CCIN 5767)
Learn about features, requirements, and specifications for the feature code (FC) 5281 adapter.
The PCIe LP 2-Port 1GbE TX Adapter is a low-profile, full duplex, dual port, gigabit Ethernet adapter.
This adapter can be configured to run each port at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps data rates. The adapter connects
to a network that uses unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable for distances of up to 100 meters (328.08 feet).
The adapter supports AIX Network Installation Management (NIM) boot capability. The adapter
conforms to the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T standard. The adapter supports jumbo frames when running at
the 1000 Mbps speed.
The adapter provides the following features:
v Supports interrupt moderation to deliver increased performance while significantly reducing processor
utilization
v Supports dual port operation in almost any PCIe slot, except x1
v Supports auto-negotiation, full-duplex only
v Supports integrated media-access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY)
v Supports Fast EtherChannel (FEC) with the existing software
v Supports gigabit EtherChannel (GEC) with the existing software
v Supports IEEE 802.3ad (Link Aggregation control protocol)
v Supports IEEE 802.1Q VLANs
