Firewalls and application servers on Fast Ethernet networks can now get the bandwidth they need with the P430TX Quadport PCI network interface card. This high-performance card can support four separate 10/100 Mbps copper network segments at full bandwidth. With PacketEngine software, all four ports can be aggregated into a single logical link with bandwidth up to 800 Mbps full-duplex. The P430TX supports active failover to redundant server links so that critical application server connections can be maintained at all times (in milliseconds).
