This document applies to the Lantronix N-FXE-xx-02 100Base-FX Fiber Adaptor NIC Cards.
Product Description
The N-FXE-xx-02 Series is a Fiber Fast Ethernet to PCI-Express (PCIe) bus adapter that fully complies with
all IEEE 802.3u and 100Base-FX standards. It provides up to 200Mbps full-duplex bandwidth capacity to
support high-end systems. In addition, with advanced functions like VLAN filtering packet processing, the
adapter provides added performance, flexible configuration and secure networking to users in a
standards-based environment.
The PCI-Express (PCIe) design gives you the maximum possible bandwidth and bus efficiency, along with
low power consumption. For users equipped with PCI-Express systems, N-FXE-xx-02 Series provides the
ability to easily build or connect to Fast Ethernet fiber networks.
Two LED indicators (LINK/ACT and FDX) on the bracket display NIC link activities and full-duplex status.
The N-FXE-xx-02 support Preboot Execution Environment (PXE). The Multi-Boot Agent (MBA) software
module lets your networked system boot with the images provided by remote systems across the
