The Small Tree PEG2 server card allows you to expand the network connectivity of your Intel Mac system. Use the PEG2 card to get an immediate performance increase on large transfers with jumbo frames support or to add another network connection to your system. The PEG2 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 PEG2 card provides increased network bandwidth, 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 10.6.8 or later
