4-Port 2.5Gbps PCIe Ethernet Card with Intel I226, NAS/Gaming/Workstation
5 sold in last 24 hours
- Plug-and-Play for OPNsense/pfSense/Linux; Windows Requires Driver Installation: 4×Intel I226 2.5Gbps ports with native support for OPNsense, pfSense, Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, FreeBSD, and Linux 2.6.x–5.x. Linux users enjoy plug-and-play functionality; Windows 10/11 users need to download the driver. Critical: Z690/B660/Z790/X670 motherboard users must update BIOS first to enable Intel I226-V chipset support—failure to do so will prevent card detection
- 2.5Gbps Independent Ports—2.5x Faster Than Gigabit Networks: Four 2.5Gbps RJ45 ports deliver 2.5 times the speed of traditional gigabit adapters. Backward compatible with 1G/100M/10M networks; supports Cat5e or higher cables with stable transmission up to 100 meters (328 feet). Dramatically accelerates NAS large-file backups, 4K/8K video streaming, cloud synchronization, and gaming downloads—transforming what takes 80 seconds into just 32 seconds
- Dual Brackets & Flexible PCIe Compatibility—Fits Any Build: Includes standard 12cm bracket + low-profile 8cm bracket, compatible with full-tower, mid-tower, and Mini ITX cases. Works with PCIe x4, x8, and x16 slots on mainstream motherboards and workstations. Not compatible with PCIe x1 slots—verify your motherboard slot type before purchase to avoid incompatibility
- High-Quality Alloy Heatsink—Stable Under Heavy Load: Premium alloy heatsink efficiently dissipates heat during demanding tasks (NAS, gaming, streaming). Buyers recommend adequate case ventilation
- Perfect for OPNsense, NAS, Gaming, Streaming & Servers: OPNsense Firewalls: 4-port isolation enables advanced network segmentation and VLAN management. NAS Storage: 2.5Gbps acceleration dramatically reduces backup times for media libraries and databases. Gaming & Streaming: Low-latency Intel chipset ensures stable connections for online gameplay and real-time video streaming. Wired Ethernet Only: This is a dedicated wired NIC with superior stability and performance—not a Wi-Fi adapter
