AXAGON PCI-Express network card with 2.5 Gbit/s transmission rate and PXE support

AXAGON PCEE-G25 PCI-Express network card adds high speed 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet connection to your desktop computer. Backward compatible with Gigabit and 10/100Base-T networks.

The network card is equipped with Realtek RTL8125B chipset. It ensures seamless compatibility with most operating systems. The LAN adapter supports network boot (PXE) and also Realtek Dragon Software for settings management and automatic bandwidth control.

2.5G Ethernet network card expands the computer with a very fast network connection, adds the missing RJ-45 connector, add another network card or replaces the original defunct network connection. The advantage of the IEEE 802.3bz standard is that common Cat 5e and Cat 6 Ethernet cables up to 100 m long can be used for speed of 2.5 Gb/s.

In addition to an adapter with a standard size bracket, the package also includes a low profile bracket which allows the mounting into low profile cases.
