D-Link Gigabit PCI Technical Details

D-Link Gigabit PCI Description

Upgrade to Gigabit Ethernet and Increase Productivity!
The D-Link DGE-530T is a 10/100/1000Mbps copper Gigabit PCI card for servers and workstations. Current systems running at 10Mbps and 100Mbps can be upgraded to Gigabit Ethernet, eliminating network bottlenecks, and increasing productivity. Integrate Gigabit now and you can save time, money, and downtime because the DGE-530T will automatically detect and run at higher speeds when it becomes available.

Cost-Effective, Scalable Migration
As an inexpensive alternative solution to fiber-optic, the card allows you to instantly upgrade to Gigabit without requiring you to install new, expensive fiber cables. Gigabit Ethernet uses your existing Category-5 cabling while providing you with 10/100/1000Mbps network speed auto-sensing and full/half duplex auto-negotiation.

Advanced Features and Security
The DGE-530T supports SNMP for remote troubleshooting and management, ACPI for lower power consumption, and WoL for remote wake. This helps to lower total cost of ownership (TCO). The card also features on-board screening of VLAN Tagged Ethernet frames, allowing you to assign multiple subnets to each server and isolate devices within each VLAN from the rest of the network for better traffic control and security. It also supports 802.1p Priority Tagging to allow you to prioritize traffic. The card also features embedded flow control and independent FIFO, providing a means to protect against possible data loss during transmission on the network. With the Cable Diagnostic feature, the card will automatically detect whether you have a bad cable, making your troubleshooting task easier.

I bought this card because my onboard nic was only a 10/100, and wanted to utilize my gigabit intranet. Unfortunately, I have Ubuntu 8.04 installed on the box, and this card isn't supported natively. The linux drivers on the CD (or their website) will NOT work. I realize some people have gotten this to work, but I have yet to find a viable solution. I'm still looking, so I will refrain from giving a bad review. If someone finds a solution, please post it here.

Works as expected, getting a 30-40Mbs file transfer speed, no hassle install, would buy again if needed....

I purchased a D-Link DIR-655 gigabit router, so D-Link Gigabit PCI was time to upgrade my network interface card to 1.0 Gbps. The D-Link DGE-530T installs easily onto Windows XP Professional SP2. I installed the drivers first as per the instructions. I powered off the computer, inserted the card, and powered up. The NIC was recognized instantly. After testing, I rebooted and disabled the on board LAN in the BIOS settings. That removed the second and unnecessary instance of Local Area Connection. I highly recommend this product.

Good value I own several d-link products have had nothing but good luck with all of them. This switch works great, fast transfer speed is what I needed, and with this product. That is what you get!
