TP-Link TG-3468 Gigabit PCI Express Network Adapter

Hardware Features:

• Standards and Protocols:
  • IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet)
  • IEEE 802.3u (Fast Ethernet)
  • IEEE 802.3ab (Gigabit Ethernet)
  • IEEE 802.3x (Flow Control)
• Interface:
  • PCI Express – Provides high-speed data transfer between the network adapter and the motherboard.
  • 1 × 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 Port – A standard Ethernet port capable of handling 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds for reliable wired networking.
  • Auto-Negotiation – Automatically adjusts the network speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) based on the network environment.
  • Auto MDI/MDIX – Automatically detects whether the connected Ethernet cable is straight-through or crossover and adjusts accordingly.
• Network Media:
  • 10BASE-T: UTP category 3, 4, 5 cables (maximum 100 meters)
  • 100BASE-TX: UTP category 5, 5e cables (maximum 100 meters)
  • 1000BASE-T: UTP category 5, 5e cables (maximum 100 meters)
• LED Indicators: Provides status information, likely for connection status and activity.

Wireless Features:

• Wireless Standards: This network adapter does not include wireless capabilities; it supports wired Ethernet standards as mentioned above.

Data Rates:

• Half-Duplex Mode:
  • 10/100/1000 Mbps
• Full-Duplex Mode:
  • 20/200/2000 Mbps (doubles the data rate since both transmit and receive occur simultaneously in full-duplex mode).

Flow Control:

• IEEE 802.3x Flow Control – Ensures efficient data transfer in Full-Duplex mode by preventing data loss during high traffic periods.

Dimensions:

• Dimensions: 3.1 × 4.8 × 0.8 in (78.5 × 120.8 × 21.5 mm)
