Network Interface Cards

AT-2971T

Gigabit Ethernet Copper PCI Extended Server Interface Card

AT-2971T

PCI-x 64-bit copper Gigabit interface card

High Performance

A high performance interface card with a 32-bit
or 64-bit (33/66/1000/133 Mhz) bus, line speed
and jumbo frames support, Allied Telesis’
AT-2971T supports the calculation of TCP, UDP
and IP checksums through the hardware
platform without time loss by the MAC
controller for both transmission and receiving
paths—a capability that leads to improvements
on overall system performance.To reduce the
load on the CPU, Allied Telesis’ AT-2971T uses
interrupt moderation to group the huge
amounts of interrupts caused by small packets
transferred at Gigabit speed, enabling the
handling of several data packets per interrupt.

High Reliability

The AT-2971T Gigabit Ethernet interface card
comes with a variety of reliability features that
maintain the longest-possible connection
through link aggregation, redundant switch
failover and PCI hot plug.The on-board sensors
and driver functions monitor the health of
interface cards and their ports, enabling
proactive network management.

Comprehensive Software Support

The AT-2971T interface cards feature a set of
software programs that assist you with your
network set-up and configuration.The offline
user diagnostic program provides system
administrators and engineers with a tool to
analyze Network Interface Cards and check 
specific data.The network control program for
Windows 2K, Windows XP and Windows Vista
Server 2003 allows you to easily control and
configure all your AT-2971T interface cards.

Virtual Cable Tester™ (VCT)

The VCT program detects and reports
potential cabling issues such as cable opens,
cable shorts or any impedance mismatches in
the cable. It can also accurately locate the
distance to the cabling fault within a tolerance
of one meter, helping you to quickly identify
failing mechanisms and isolate the source of
problems.
