Gigabit PCI Network Card Intel 8390MT Pro/1000MT

This is a Gigabit PCI network card designed for desktop computers, offering high-speed internet connectivity through a PCI interface. It supports data transfer rates of up to 1000 Mbps, making it suitable for users who require fast and reliable network performance. The card is ideal for both home and office environments where upgrading to Gigabit Ethernet is needed without replacing existing Cat-5 cabling. It features Intel Single Driver technology, which simplifies installation and maintenance by reducing the need for multiple drivers. The card is compatible with various network standards, including 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T, ensuring broad compatibility with different network setups.

The card uses a PCI 2.3 bus interface with a 32-bit data path width, allowing it to operate efficiently on systems that support this standard. It supports auto-negotiation and full-duplex communication, which helps in optimizing network performance based on the connected devices. The card includes Intel PRO Set II Utility for managing network settings and monitoring performance. It also supports bus-master DMA controller for efficient data transfer without overloading the CPU. The card is designed for easy installation with plug-and-play support, making it user-friendly even for those with limited technical expertise.

The Intel 8390MT Pro/1000MT comes with a single RJ-45 connector for connecting to Ethernet cables. It requires a PCI slot on the motherboard and is compatible with systems that have a 32/33 or 32/66 bus speed. The card has an integrated memory of 64 KB and consumes approximately 800 mA of power at +5 VDC. It includes all necessary hardware certifications such as FCC B, CE, BSMI B, and VCCI B, ensuring compliance with international standards. The package includes one new network card ready for immediate installation.

The card is best suited for users looking to upgrade their network capabilities without significant infrastructure changes. It is particularly useful in environments where high-speed data transfer is essential, such as in multimedia applications or large file transfers. However, it may not be compatible with newer systems that use PCIe slots instead of PCI. Users should ensure their motherboard has an available PCI slot before purchasing this card.
