Gigabit Ethernet PCIe Adapter
The Intel EXPI9301CT is a single-port Gigabit Ethernet card that connects through a PCI Express slot. It uses the Intel 82574L controller to deliver network speeds of 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps through auto-negotiation. The low-power design fits a compact profile while maintaining full bandwidth on the dedicated PCIe bus.
Desktop and entry-level server use
This adapter suits users adding a wired network connection to a desktop PC or deploying a cost-effective link in an entry-level server. It supports teaming features for basic load balancing or failover. Buyers needing multiple RJ-45 ports, fibre connectivity, or speeds beyond 1000 Mbps should look at a different product.
Single RJ-45 port on PCI Express
The card provides exactly one RJ-45 port for twisted-pair cabling and installs in any available PCI Express slot. No other port types or host interfaces are included. Confirm your system has a free PCIe slot and that a single copper connection meets your network topology.
