Installation

Hardware Installation

1. Turn OFF the computer power before installation.

2. Remove the chassis cover from your computer.

3. Locate an unused PCI Express slot and remove the corresponding slot cover from

the rear panel of the computer chassis. Retain the screw (if applicable) used to hold

the slot cover in place.

4. Align the PCI Express card with the unused PCI Express expansion slot. Applying

pressure evenly across the top edge of the expansion card, rmly but gently insert the

card into the slot, ensuring that the card is properly aligned with the rear panel slot.

5. Secure the card to the motherboard and rear chassis using the screw removed in

step 3 (if necessary). Secure the additional serial port provided by the daughter

board (smaller circuit board to an adjacent rear bracket.

6. Replace the chassis cover (removed in step 2).

7. Power on the computer. Once the computer has been rebooted, the operating

system will detect that the PCI Express card has been installed and request driver

installation, detailed in the next section.

WARNING! PCI Express cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely damaged by static

electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case or

touching your PCI Express card. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap

when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself

of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the

computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI Express card by its edges

and not the gold connectors.

Instruction Manual

Connecting to a Network

Please note: You must connect the PCI Express Fiber Gigabit Ethernet

Adapter to the network before installing the network driver.

For connector type, cabling requirements, and maximum segment distance when

connecting the PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Adapter to your network, please refer to

the following tables.

Connector Type on Fiber

Adapter

Wavelength of 850nm;

Fiber Optic required

Remove the protective covers from the PCI Express Fiber Gigabit Ethernet Adapter’s connector.

2. Prepare a network cable with corresponding connectors for the two end devices,

one end to the PCI Express Fiber Gigabit Ethernet Adapter and the other to a

1000Mbps ber port on the network switch.

3. Connect the network cable to the connector on the PCI Express Fiber Gigabit

Ethernet Adapter. This network cable consists of two individual cables: one for

‘transmission (TX)’, and the other for ‘reception (RX)’.

4. Connect the other end of the network cable to a 1000BASE-SX switch.

5. i. Insert the cable that is connected to the transmit (TX) connector on the PCI Express

Fiber Gigabit Ethernet Adapter into the receive(RX) connector on the network switch.

ii. Insert the cable that is connected to the receive (RX) connector on the PCI Express

Fiber Gigabit Ethernet Adapter into the transmit (TX) connector on the network switch.

Instruction Manual

6. When the cable is properly connected to two end devices, turn on the power to the PC.

7. Check the LNK (Link) LED. The LED will come on when the PCI Express Fiber Gigabit

Ethernet Adapter is receiving a good link signal from the connected device, a switch.

Software Installation

1. Once PEX1000MMSC/ PEX1000MMST has

been installed in the computer, turn on

the power to the computer.

2. When the Found New Hardware Wizard

window pops up, select Install from a list

or specic location (Advanced)and click

Next to continue.

3. Select Search for the best driver in these

locations. and then select Include this

location in the search. Click Browse to
