Green PCIe x1 card with four RJ45 ports and low-profile bracket

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK WX1860 Quad Port Gigabit Ethernet Network Card

SKU CH-RSRE-7RB9J

Adds four gigabit RJ45 ports via a PCIe X1 slot using a WX1860 chip for multi-LAN expansion on Windows Server and Linux

  • Four independent gigabit RJ45 ports for multi-LAN expansion
  • PCIe X1 interface fits X1, X4, X8 and X16 slots
  • Auto 10/100/1000 Mbps negotiation with MDI/MDIX crossover
  • Full driver support for Windows Server, CentOS, RHEL, Ubuntu, SLES Linux
  • Ideal for soft routing, NAS and small server deployments

Quad-port gigabit NIC for servers and soft routers

This SMUGDESK WX1860 card adds four independent RJ45 ports over a single PCIe X1 lane. It targets administrators building DIY soft routers, NAS appliances or small business servers that need extra wired segments. Full driver support covers Windows Server, CentOS, RHEL, Ubuntu, SLES and other mainstream Linux distributions.

Sustained multi-port throughput with WX1860 chip

The domestic WX1860 controller manages four gigabit links simultaneously without relying on a wider bus. Auto-negotiation at 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps keeps each port at its best rate under continuous load. MDI/MDIX crossover detection removes cable-mismatch errors that can degrade long-running transfers.

PCIe X1 fits X4 X8 X16 slots for simple install

The X1 edge connector slides into any vacant PCIe X1, X4, X8 or X16 slot on desktop or server mainboards. No extra power cable or bracket swap is required. Installers should verify the operating system includes the WX1860 driver or plan to compile it, as some minimal Linux images omit the module.

Questions about this item

How much power does the WX1860 card draw when all four ports run at 1000Mbps all day?

The card is powered from the PCIe X1 slot and uses the low-power WX1860 chip, so typical draw stays within the slot's 10-watt envelope even with four active 1000Mbps links.

What slot type must my motherboard have free for this quad-port NIC?

Any vacant PCIe X1, X4, X8 or X16 slot works because the card uses a PCIe X1 edge connector that is backward compatible with wider slots.

Will the WX1860 negotiate 10Mbps links on my legacy 10Base-T cabling?

Yes, each RJ45 port auto-negotiates 10, 100 or 1000Mbps and includes MDI/MDIX crossover detection for older straight or crossover cables.
