DeLOCK PCI Express x1 Card to 2 x RJ45 2.5 Gigabit LAN RTL8125 Wired Ethernet

The DeLOCK PCI Express x1 Card to 2 x RJ45 2.5 Gigabit LAN (model 88101) provides two wired Ethernet ports supporting up to 2500 Mbit/s. Designed for installation into a PCI Express x1 slot, this network card enables higher-speed wired connections in desktop systems using conventional cabling.

Advantages

The card supports NBASE-T technology, which allows automatic negotiation of 1 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps link speeds over standard Cat5e/Cat6 cables. It complies with common Ethernet standards (IEEE 802.1Q, 802.1p, 802.3 family) and offers a compact PCIe x1 form factor for easy integration. The white-coloured PCB and dual RJ45 ports provide two independent network interfaces for improved connectivity.

How to use

Install the card into an available PCI Express x1 slot on a powered-off desktop PC and secure it in the case. Connect Ethernet cables to the RJ45 ports and to your network devices or switch. Power on the system and install appropriate drivers supplied by the operating system or from the manufacturer to enable full 2.5 Gigabit functionality. Configure network settings via the operating system network control panel.

Recommendations

For optimal 2.5 Gbps performance, use Cat5e or Cat6 cables and ensure the connected switch or router also supports 2.5G speeds. Verify driver updates from DELOCK or the chipset vendor for best stability.
