Network Card Microconnect MC-PCIE-INT210 Internal Fiber 1000 Mbit/s

The Microconnect MC-PCIE-INT210 is an internal PCI Express network card that provides fiber connectivity with a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s. It is designed to establish long-distance links between a file server and remote workstations using appropriate Gigabit transceivers. The card supports multimode Gigabit 1000SX transceivers for fiber connections up to 500 meters and single-mode Gigabit 1000LX/WDM transceivers for substantially longer distances.

Advantages

This internal fiber network card uses the PCI Express host interface to deliver stable wired connectivity at gigabit speeds. Its support for both multimode (1000SX) and single-mode (1000LX/WDM) transceivers makes it flexible for short to long-distance fiber links. The compact, low-weight design and compatibility with IEEE 802.1Q networking standards enable integration into server and workstation environments where reliable, high-speed fiber connections are required.

Suitable for

• Establishing long-distance fiber links between servers and remote workstations
• Upgrading internal workstations or servers to 1 Gbit/s fiber connectivity
• Environments requiring IEEE 802.1Q VLAN support over fiber
• Fiber backbone connections within campus or data center segments (using appropriate transceivers)

How to use

Install the card into an available PCI Express slot on a compatible motherboard following the host system manufacturer's safety and installation guidelines. Choose and fit the appropriate fiber transceiver (multimode 1000SX for up to 500 m or single-mode 1000LX/WDM for longer spans) into the card's SFP/SFP+ slot if applicable, then connect the fiber optic cable to the transceiver. Configure network settings and VLANs (IEEE 802.1Q) in the operating system or network management software to match the network architecture.

Recommendations

Use certified multimode or single-mode Gigabit transceivers and quality fiber optic cabling appropriate for the required distance. Verify compatibility of the transceiver type with the remote endpoint and ensure proper fiber connector types and cleanliness to maintain link performance.
