Network Interface Cards

AT-2701FTX

PCI 32-bit Fast Ethernet Fiber Network Interface Card

AT-2701FTX

100Mbps Fast Ethernet dual fiber
and copper 100TX interface card

Choice and Flexibility

Allied Telesis’ AT-2701FTX is the answer for
those fiber interface cards that suppor t Wake-
on-LAN (WoL) for either PCI 2.1 or PCI 2.2
systems but not both. Allied Telesis’ NICs
suppor t WoL through the PCI 2.2 bus and
suppor t PCI 2.1 WoL via external cables.
Resistant to signal degradation, snooping, and
interference, the AT-2701FTX is the ideal
solution for networks requiring protection from
electrical interference and hackers. The small
footprint—together with the low-profile option
of the AT-2701FTX—make these products a
perfect choice for PCs equipped with small
desktop solutions.

Advanced Manageability

Allied Telesis’ AT-2701FTX features a full-line of
card assistant software:

•

AT-Setup reduces Window Driver installation to
a mouse click. This Windows program guides
users through driver installation, updates, and
problem corrections.

•

AT-Stat is an advanced Windows application
that repor ts network conditions and
performance such as hardware resources,
network statistics, and configuration.

•

The VLAN protocol driver allows network
administrators to configure their VLAN network
fabric at the PC instead of the switch, enabling
transparent movement of systems between
switches.

•

TCP/IP checksum off-loading improves CPU
use by verifying TCP/IP traffic checksums at the
interface card rather than at the host processor,
improving overall system performance for
slower PCs.

•

Packet prioritization enables Windows
applications with Class of Ser vice capabilities to
prioritize out-bound packet streams to these
NICs, a useful feature for video streaming and
VoIP where interruptions are unacceptable.

•

The AT-2701FTX’s onboard Managed Boot
Agent (MBA) provides a wide set of industr y-
standard boot protocols, including PXE,
NetWare NCP/IPX, IBM’s RPL, traditional
DHCP, and BOOTP, suppor ting both BBS (BIOS
Boot Specification) and non-BBS compliant PCs.
It also includes an extensive set of utilities for
boot ROM configuration, as well as access to
pre-OS and network boot image files.

•

Offering a wide range of connector choices—
ST, SC, or MT-RJ—these cards meet the
requirements of most fiber installations.
