FCC Warning
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
regulations for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with this user’s guide, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will
be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
CE Mark Warning
This is a Class B product. In a domestic environment, this product
may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required
to take adequate measures.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the Gigabit fiber Ethernet Card for 32/64-bit
PCI Bus-equipped personal computers. The Gigabit fiber Ethernet
Card is ideal for speeding up data transfers for network servers and
other computers, such as those used for video-conferencing, which
send and/or receive large amounts of data. It also includes the newest
networking technologies, such as VLAN and multicasting support that
require more network bandwidth and further help the card maximize
data throughput.
Features
?? IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE-SX compliant
?? Support 64/32-bit 66/33Mhz PCI Local Bus Master high-speed
operation of Rev.2.1/2.2 specification
?? Plug-and-Play installation
?? SC type connector for 50/125?m or 62.5/125?m multi-mode
fiber
?? Supports Full-duplex mode doubles network data rate to
2000Mbps
?? Built-in FIFO buffersreduces memory transfer overhead
?? Virtual LAN (VLAN) and long frame support. VLAN tag
insertion supports for transmit packets. VLAN tag detection and
removal for receive packets
?? 802.3x Full duplex flow control, including automatic
transmission of Pause frames based on Rx FIFO thresholds
?? Two LED indicators for easy diagnostic

Gigabit Ethernet Technology
Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet, which
utilizes the same packet structure, format, CSMA/CD protocol, full
duplex, flow control, and management objects. From the bandwidth
point of view, Gigabit Ethernet has a tenfold increase in theoretical
throughput over 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase
over 10Mbps Ethernet. Since it is also compatible with 10Mbps and
100Mbps Ethernet environments, Gigabit Ethernet provides a
straightforward upgrade without wasting a company’s existing
investment in hardware, software, and trained personnel.
The higher packet transfer speed and extra bandwidth offered by
Gigabit Ethernet is essential when coping with the network
bottlenecks that frequently developed as the computers and their
busses get faster and more users use applications that generate more
traffic. Upgrading key components, such as your backbone and
servers to Gigabit Ethernet can greatly improve network response
times as well as significantly speed up the traffic between your
subnets.
Fiber Gigabit Ethernet enables Fiber cable connections to
support video conferencing, complex imaging, and similar
data-intensive applications. Likewise, since data transfers
occur 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet, servers outfitted
with Gigabit Ethernet NIC’s are able to perform 10 times the
number of operations in the same amount of time.

UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION
This chapter provides unpacking and installation information for the
32/64-bit PCI Bus Gigabit fiber Ethernet card
Unpacking
CAUTION: Under normal condition, the 32/64-bit PCI 1000Mbps Fiber Gigabit
Ethernet Card will not be affected by static charge as may be received
through your body during handling of the unit. However, there are
occasions that you may carry a high static charge, and this can possibly
damage the card and/or your computer. It is good practice to eliminate
all static electricity by touching a ground (an unpainted metal area of
your computer chassis, for example) before performing any hardware
installation.
Open the box and carefully remove all items. In addition to this User's
Guide, ascertain that you have:
?? One 32/64-bit PCI 1000BASE-SX Gigabit fiber Ethernet Card.
?? One Driver Diskette
?? This User’s Guide.
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local
reseller for replacement.

Installing Fiber Adapter into PCI slot
Step 1: Power off the computer and disconnect the computer power cord.
Step 2: Remove any jewelry on your hands.
Step 3: Remove the cover from your PC.
Step 4: Locate an empty, non-shared bus mastering 32bit or 64bit PCI slot and
remove the back-plate for that slot on the chassis. If there is a screw holding
the back-plate, remove it and save it for Step 6.
Step 5: Carefully insert the Fiber Adapter into the chosen slot; press it firmly and
make sure it is fully seated in the slot (all the gold contacts are in the slot).
Step 6: Secure the Fiber Adapter with the screw from step 4.
Step 7: Replace the PC cover.
Step 8: Proceed to “Connecting the Fiber Cable” section.
<Note>
Always ensure the power is cut off before any installation to avoid electric shock and possible
damage to the equipments.
Connecting the Fiber (SC type connector) Cable
A Multi-mode Fiber cable (50/125µm or 62/125µm, wavelength 850nm) with SC
connector is required for the Gigabit fiber Ethernet Card. The connector connects in a
certain way; do not force to make the connection. Also, make sure to connect the card’s
TX port to the RX port of the other device and vise versa.
For cabling requirementsand maximum segment distance for the Fiber Adapter, please
refer to the Technical Specifications on page 11.

Software Installation
Before you can use the Gigabit fiber Ethernet Card on the network,
you have to install the network driver first. The driver for each
networking operating system is under a separate directory. A
HELP.EXE file under root directory lists the information and detailed
installation procedure of all the available drivers.
LED INDICATORS
Link
This indicator lights green when the Gigabit Card is connects to
1000BASE-SX Gigabit Ethernet Network.
Activity (ACT)
This indicator blinks green when transmitting or receiving data on
the network.
