SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK Single Port Gigabit PCIe x1 NIC Intel 82583 Chip RJ45 Ethernet Adapter WOL

SKU CH-MN6E-S0KHY

Adds a single gigabit RJ45 port via PCIe x1 with Intel 82583 chip and Wake-on-LAN support

  • Intel 82583 controller delivers reliable gigabit throughput up to 1000Mbps
  • PCIe x1 interface fits x1/x4/x8/x16 slots for flexible desktop or NAS installation
  • Wake-on-LAN enables remote power-up for unattended maintenance and server management
  • Hardware checksum offload plus IEEE 802.1Q VLAN and 802.3x flow control reduce CPU load
  • Broad OS support covers Windows, Server and Linux with native drivers and link LED status

Single-Port Gigabit PCIe x1 NIC

The SMUGDESK adapter adds one RJ45 Ethernet port to a desktop, industrial PC or small NAS through a PCIe x1 slot. An Intel 82583 controller handles 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps auto-negotiation with Cat5e or Cat6 cabling. Wake-on-LAN lets administrators power the machine on remotely, while hardware checksum offload, 802.1Q VLAN tagging and 802.3x flow control reduce CPU load. Drivers are included in Windows desktop, Windows Server and mainstream Linux kernels.

Fits single-slot upgrades on open PCIe lanes

Installers with a free x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot can use the card without blocking larger expansion cards. The low-profile bracket suits compact chassis where space is limited. Buyers who need more than one copper port, faster than gigabit throughput, or fibre connectivity must choose a different adapter. The single RJ45 jack also means link redundancy is not available from this card alone.

Intel 82583 gigabit controller chip

The onboard 82583 silicon provides native driver support across current Windows and Linux releases without extra downloads. Hardware TCP and UDP checksum offload lowers processor utilisation during sustained transfers. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging and IEEE 802.3x flow control are handled in hardware for managed-switch environments. A front-panel LINK/ACT LED gives immediate visual confirmation of link status and traffic activity.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the PCIe x1 version or a wider-slot version for my desktop?

This card uses a PCIe x1 interface that also fits x4, x8 and x16 slots, so one version covers all common desktop expansion slots.

What does the gigabit rating mean for actual file-transfer speed on my LAN?

The Intel 82583 controller auto-negotiates at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps, so on a Cat5e or Cat6 wired network you can reach full gigabit throughput.

Which Ethernet standard does the RJ45 port follow and what does it cap in practice?

The port complies with IEEE 802.3 flow control and IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, limiting practical speed to the negotiated 10/100/1000 Mbps link rate.
