Dual-Port Gigabit Server Adapter

The Dell F169G is a full-profile PCI Express network card that adds two RJ45 ports to a server or workstation. It supports 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps links and is compatible with Windows, Linux, VMware, MS-DOS and Oracle Solaris drivers. The card targets administrators who need redundant copper connections on a single x4 slot.

Sustained Load Behaviour

On-chip temperature monitoring and checksum offload for TCP, IP and UDP reduce host CPU utilisation during continuous traffic. I/O virtualisation support for VMware NetQueue and Microsoft VMQ keeps multiple virtual machines from contending for the same queue. Wake On LAN remains active so remote power-on works even after extended idle periods.

x4 PCI Express Interface Constraint

The card requires a physical x4 PCI Express slot; it will not fit in an x1 slot without a riser or open-ended bracket. Buyers whose chassis only provide x1 or proprietary slots cannot use this adapter. No other interface or form factor is supported by this part number.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the F169G produce when running continuously?

The card includes an on-chip temperature monitor so you can track thermal output during all-day operation.

What slot and driver support must my system provide for the F169G?

It requires an x4 PCI-Express slot and supports Windows 32-bit and 64-bit, Linux 32-bit and 64-bit, VMware, MS-DOS and Oracle Solaris.

Will the F169G work alongside an older 10/100 network card in the same server?

Yes, its dual RJ45 ports negotiate at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps so it coexists with legacy 10/100 adapters on the same network.
