Safety Precaution - Static Electricity
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the products from
damage.
 Toavoid electrical shock, always disconnect the power from your PC chassis
before you work on it. Don't touch any components on the CPU card or other
cards while the PC is on.
 Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The sudden rush
of power as you connect a jumper or install a card may damage sensitive elec-
tronic components.

1.1 Description
Advantech PCIe-1672/PCIe-1674 is a PCI Express by 2 or 4 lane and jumbo frame
support for independent Gigabit Ethernet ports. Advantech GbE card levrages the
"Plug and Play" capability defined in the PCI Express bus specification. The board
requires one PCI Express by 2 or 4 slot within the personal computer and provides
independent Gigabit Ethernet Ports via Intel i350 series Gigabit Ethernet controllers.
Multiple Gigabit Ethernet Vision device connections are supported for standard
Gigabit Ethernet Vision data transfer rates of up to 1000Mb per second.
PCIe-1672 and PCIe-1674 feature jumbo frame package, power isolation and IEEE
1588(precise time protocol) to enable synchronization with multi-camera or PD
acquisition.
Each port of PCIe-1672 and PCIe-1674 can provide 1000 Mb/s bandwidth over a
CAT-5/CAT-6/CAT-7 cable of up to 100 meters. It features 9 kB jumbo frame and link
aggregation, which conduct excep- tional performance for continuously receiving
large amount of imagedata.
