Fast Ethernet 32-bit CardBus

A NIC or Network Interface Card is a circuit board or chip, which allows the computer to communicate to other computers on a Network. When connected to the network, computers can share websites, files, printers and other resources. The most popular networking standard at the moment is Ethernet, which one can recognize by the rectangular connectors with eight wires in them. Wireless network with the 802.11b and the faster 802.11g standard is also increasingly popular, both at home and in the office, though it is not yet as fast as wired (ethernet) network. A public place where you can use wireless internet is called a "hot spot".

The D-Link DFE-690TXD is a 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet 32-bit CardBus adapter for notebooks. With the built-in connector, a RJ-45 LAN cable can be directly plugged into a notebook computer. The DFE-690TXD provides instant connectivity for mobile users. Enabling easy access to a network - users can access databases and resources in diverse environments. The DFE-690TXD adheres to IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u ... More>>> standards, which specify existing 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet technology supporting both half and full duplex modes with data rates up to 10/100Mbps and 20/200Mbps. The DFE-690TXD also utilizes auto-negotiation to adjust the speed to any 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX network automatically. With the DFE-690TXD's 4KB RAM data buffer, all incoming data is processed and stored into temporary memory and eventually filtered out, resulting in smooth data flow. The DFE-690TXD's extensive diagnostic LED's show link connectivity for both 10Link/Activity and 100Link/Activity. Designed with a plug-and-play feature, the DFE-690TXD is simple to install and operate. With built-in hot swapping capabilites, the DFE-690TXD can be removed while the computer is still in operation.
