3Com 10/100BASE-T4 PCI - Manual (Page 13)

1-2 C HAPTER 1: I NTRODUCTION
The 10/100BASE-T4 PCI adapter connects your PCI-compliant
personal computer to an Ethernet network wired with
IEEE 802.3 standard 10BASE-T or 100BASE-T4 twisted-pair
cable. For information on the IEEE 802.3 standard as it relates
to twisted-pair cable, refer to Appendix A.
The adapter interoperates with all 10BASE-T products and all
10/100 T4 adapters and hub products. It is compatible with
3Com’s SNMP network management software (Transcend
â
WorkGroup Manager).
The 10/100BASE-T4 PCI adapter (shown in Figure 1-1) can be
installed in any PCI slot, either master or non-bus master.
However, the adapter will produce higher levels of performance
in a bus master slot.
