Introduction

Accton’s CheetahPower

TM 

Enhanced PCI Adapter

 

is a dual-speed 

Fast Ethernet card for PCI local bus compliant computers. A true 
plug-and-play device, this card is auto-configurable upon power up 
and also supports auto-negotiation to automatically select the 
optimum speed and communication mode of an attached device.

The CheetahPower Enhanced PCI Adapter complies with ACPI 
and OnNow PC98/PC99, and also supports Remote LAN 
Wakeup. By connecting the adapter’s Wake-On-LAN (WOL) 
cable, a WOL-enabled computer can be managed remotely. 
Software can be loaded and updated, configurations changed, 
data backed up and inventory checked, all from a central location. 
See “Remote LAN Wakeup” on page 4 for more information.

Also included on the CD-ROM are the EtherGuard Personal 
Firewall and the WiNeTool testing utility.
