โ Frequently Asked Questions
๐ Which PCIe slot should I use?
This card requires a PCIe x4 slot minimum but is also compatible with x8 and x16 slots. For optimal performance, use a PCIe x4 or higher slot on your motherboard.
๐ป Is this compatible with VMware ESXi?
Yes! The Intel I350 chipset is officially certified for VMware ESXi and is widely used in virtualization environments. It provides excellent performance and stability for virtual machine networking.
๐ Can I use all 4 ports simultaneously?
Absolutely! All four RJ45 ports can be used at the same time. This is perfect for network aggregation, link redundancy, multi-network segmentation, or connecting to multiple VLANs. Each port operates independently at Gigabit speeds.
๐ฅ๏ธ What operating systems are supported?
The Intel I350 chipset has excellent driver support across Windows (Server 2012/2016/2019/2022, 10, 11), Linux (most distributions), FreeBSD, and VMware ESXi. Drivers are typically built into modern operating systems.
๐ ๏ธ Does this support link aggregation (bonding)?
Yes! The card supports IEEE 802.3ad LACP for link aggregation, as well as various bonding modes including active-backup, load balancing, and failover. This requires compatible network switch support and proper OS configuration.
๐ Will this fit in a small form factor case?
Yes! The package includes a low-profile bracket, making it compatible with both standard and small form factor cases. Simply swap the bracket before installation.
๐ฅ Does this card require additional power?
No external power required! The card draws all necessary power from the PCIe slot itself. The Intel I350 chipset is also energy-efficient with advanced power management features.
๐ What is the difference between Intel I350 and Realtek chips?
Intel I350 is an enterprise-grade chipset offering superior reliability, better driver support, VMware certification, and advanced features like SR-IOV for virtualization. It's the preferred choice for servers and professional workstations.
๐ถ What cables do I need?
Standard Cat5e or higher Ethernet cables (Cat6/Cat6a recommended). For Gigabit speeds, Cat5e cables support up to 100 meters. Cables are not included with the card.
