AT-2451FTX
PCI 32-bit Fast Ethernet Fiber Network Interface Card

T-2451FTX
10Mbps Ethernet dual fiber
and copper 100TX interface card
Choice and Flexibility
Allied Telesis’ AT-2451FTX is the answer for
those fiber interface cards that supportWake-
on-LAN (WoL) for either PCI 2.1 or PCI 2.2
systems but not both. Allied Telesis’ NICs
support WoL through the PCI 2.2 bus and
support PCI 2.1 WoL via external cables.
Resistant to signal degradation, snooping, and
interference,the AT-2451FTX is the ideal
solution for networks requiring protection from
electrical interference and hackers.The small
footprint—together with the low-profile option
of the AT-2451FTX—make these products a
perfect choice for PCs equipped with small
desktop solutions.
Advanced Manageability
Allied Telesis’ AT-2451FTX features a full-line of
card assistant software:
•AT-Setup reduces Window Driver installation to
amouse click.This Windows program guides
users through driver installation, updates, and
problem corrections.
•AT-Stat is an advanced Windows application
that reports network conditions and
performance such as hardware resources,
network statistics, and configuration.
•The VLAN protocol driver allows network
administrators to configure their VLAN network
fabric at the PC instead of the switch, enabling
transparent movement of systems between
switches.
•TCP/IP checksum off-loading improves CPU
use by verifying TCP/IP traffic checksums at the
interface card rather than at the host processor,
improving overall system performance for
slower PCs.
•Packet prioritization enables Windows
applications with Class of Service capabilities to
prioritizeout-bound packet streams to these
NICs, a useful feature for video streaming and
VoIP where interruptions are unacceptable.
•The AT-2451FTX’s onboard Managed Boot
Agent (MBA) provides a wide set of industry-
standard boot protocols, including PXE,
NetWare NCP/IPX, IBM’s RPL, traditional
DHCP, and BOOTP, supporting both BBS (BIOS
Boot Specification) and non-BBS compliant PCs.
It also includes an extensive set of utilities for
boot ROM configuration, as well as access to
pre-OS and network boot image files.
•Offering a wide range of connector choices—
ST or SC—these cards meet the requirements
of most fiber installations.
