Intel based GbE PCI-X Dual Port Copper Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapter PXG2
*This product will no longer be for sale after October 1, 2011.
*Product will be supported through October 1, 2012.
The Small Tree PXG2 server card allows you to expand the network connectivity of your Power Mac G4, Power Mac G5, Xserve G4 or Xserve G5 system. Use the PXG2 card to get an immediate performance increase on large transfers with jumbo frames support or to add another network connect to your system. The PXG2 Gigabit Ethernet ports will support Mac OS X's built-in link aggregation software in combination with the internal Gigabit Ethernet ports of the system. The PXG2 card will transparently load balance among all linked ports, and seamlessly fail over if one or more ports or cables become disabled. Must be using OS X 10.5.8. This Product is NOT compatible with Intel Xserve System.

Features
Benefits
Supports Apple Power Mac G4, Power Mac G5, Xserve G4 and Xserve G5
Enables expansive solutions across Mac platforms.
Supports 64- or 32-bit PCI-X 1.0 or PCI 2.2 buses
This flexible, auto-sensing adapter works in a variety of bus types.
Interrupt Moderation
Delivers increased performance while significantly reducing CPU utilization.
IEEE 802.3ab Compatability
Supports Gigabit Ethernet industry-wide networking standard.
Intel© 82546 Gigabit Controller
Enables two Gigabit connections in a single adapter, delivering increased bandwidth for slot-constrained servers and providing high performance, reliability, and low power use in a single, integrated, dual port Gigabit Ethernet controller chip.
Full-height and low-profile, screw-on brackets included with each adapter.
Compatible with full-height and low-profile PCI slots-the standard, full-height bracket can be easily swapped out and replaced by the shorter, low-profile bracket, for installation in high-density 1U and 2U servers that feature low-profile PCI slots.
