D-Link DE 530CT (DE-530CT) Network Adapter Recommendations

Utilizing the latest PCI-bus technology, D-Link has developed a 32-bit Bus Mastering PCI Ethernet Adapter (DE-530CT) for computers that are equipped with PCI Bus slots. This adapter runs in bus master mode, directly sending/receiving Ethernet packets to/from the memory, using minimum aid from the CPU. Compared to a PCI adapter running in bus slave mode, the time required for moving data between memory and the adapter can be cut in half.??Reaping the benefits of PCI-bus's greater bandwidth of 32-bit and faster bus speed of up to 33 Mhz, the DE-530CT adapter proves to be far superior than any standard AT bus adapter. It complies with IEEE 802.3 standard and transmits data over the Ethernet network at 10 Mbps. It comes with both BNC and UTP connectors to support the most popular Ethernet connections.
