StarTech.com 1-Port Gigabit Ethernet PCIe Network Card

Brand:

The StarTech.com ST1000SPEXI is a 1-port PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet NIC built around the Intel I210-AT chipset, designed to add or upgrade wired networking on compatible desktops, workstations and servers. It provides 10/100/1000Mbps RJ-45 connectivity, PXE boot, VLAN tagging, 9K jumbo frames, Wake-on-LAN and link aggregation support, making it suitable for business network upgrades, server connectivity, workstation expansion and network redundancy.

OVERVIEW

  • The StarTech.com ST1000SPEXI is a 1-port PCIe Gigabit Ethernet network card using the Intel I210-AT controller for dependable wired connectivity in desktops, workstations and servers. Compatibility: Requires an available PCI Express slot and supports 10/100/1000Mbps networks. Compared with multi-port StarTech NICs, this model focuses on single-port Gigabit expansion, replacement or redundancy. Its low-profile bracket option supports broader chassis deployment. 

USE CASES

  • Desktop Ethernet upgrade: Adds Gigabit Ethernet to a compatible desktop where the existing network interface is unavailable, outdated or insufficient.
  • Server network expansion: Adds a dedicated RJ-45 Gigabit interface to compatible servers for additional connectivity or network segmentation.
  • Workstation connectivity: Provides reliable wired networking for engineering, business and professional workstations that require a PCIe Ethernet interface.
  • 10/100-to-Gigabit migration: Upgrades compatible systems from legacy Fast Ethernet to 1000Mbps-class wired networking without replacing the entire computer.
  • Network redundancy: Adds a separate Ethernet interface that can be used for supported redundancy, management or network-access requirements.
  • VLAN-enabled environments: IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging supports network segmentation on compatible operating systems and network infrastructure.
  • PXE deployment environments: PXE network boot support allows compatible systems to participate in network-based provisioning and operating-system deployment workflows.
  • Virtualized infrastructure: The Intel I210 platform and supported networking capabilities make the card applicable to compatible virtualization and server environments.
  • High-throughput file and storage networks: 9K jumbo-frame support can help reduce packet overhead where the complete network path is configured for jumbo frames.
  • Remote workstation administration: Wake-on-LAN allows compatible systems to be remotely awakened through the network.

KEY FEATURES

  • Intel I210-AT chipset: Provides an Intel-based Gigabit Ethernet controller for dependable network connectivity and advanced networking functions. 
  • 10/100/1000Mbps RJ-45 connectivity: Supports common Ethernet speeds, allowing the NIC to integrate with existing Fast Ethernet and Gigabit network infrastructure.
  • Up to 2000Mbps full-duplex throughput: Provides up to 1000Mbps in each direction, supporting simultaneous upstream and downstream traffic. 
  • PCI Express x1 interface: Uses one PCIe expansion connection, helping preserve larger expansion slots for other hardware.
  • PXE network boot: Enables compatible systems to boot from network-based deployment infrastructure, supporting centralized OS provisioning.
  • IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging: Allows supported systems to participate in VLAN-based network segmentation and management.
  • 9K jumbo-frame support: Supports larger Ethernet frames to reduce packet-processing overhead on networks configured for jumbo frames.
  • IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation: Supports compatible link-aggregation configurations where multiple network interfaces and the network infrastructure are configured accordingly.
  • Wake-on-LAN: Enables compatible systems to be awakened remotely over the network, useful for centralized administration and maintenance.
  • Auto-MDIX: Automatically detects and accommodates cable wiring differences, simplifying Ethernet installation.
  • Full-duplex operation: Supports simultaneous transmission and reception for efficient two-way network traffic.
  • Dual-profile installation: Includes a standard-profile bracket and low-profile bracket, expanding deployment options across full-size and compact chassis.
  • AVB support: Intel I210 capabilities include Audio-Video Bridging support for compatible time-sensitive media networking applications. 
  • Connectivity Tools support: Compatible StarTech.com utilities include features such as MAC Address Pass-Through and Wi-Fi Auto Switch for supported deployments.
