Product CN-8341B - 10Base-FL 16-Bit AT ISA NIC with ST/SMA Connectors

Overview

    The CodeNet-8341B is a 16-bit 10Base-FL Ethernet network adapter for the Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) bus. This adapter operates in either 8-bit or 16-bit ISA slots or in any EISA slot. The board design allows the adapter to map its on-board RAM directly into the host system's main memory (shared memory mode), or to use a Base I/O address for network adapter data transfer (NE2000+ mode).
    The CodeNet-8341B ISA adapter provides a high performance, fiber optic link to an Ethernet network segment, based upon the IEEE 10Base-FL standard. The 10Base-FL specification also includes backwards compatibility with the earlier Fiber Optic Inter Repeater Link (FOIRL) IEEE standard. Using the fiber interface, workstations can be more than 2 kms from the hub. CodeNet- 8341B 10Base-FL/FOIRL adapters are compatible with other 10Base-FL/FOIRL products and can be used in an open systems environment with other manufacturers' hubs and repeaters.

Features

  • Connects an IBM PCXT, AT, PS/2-25, 30 and compatibles to any 10Base-FL/FOIRL fiber optic Ethernet network.
  • Dual-ported 16-Kbyte shared memory or Base I/O board access for exceptional performance. No DMA channels required.
  • Software support for popular network operating systems including: Novell NetWare 386, Microsoft LAN Manager (NDIS), Windows for Workgroup, Windows NT, Novell's UnixWare, Solaris 86, IBM OS/2, SCO and Banyan Vines.
  • Operates in either 8-bit or 16-blt ISA slots or in any EISA slot.
  • Fully compatible with the IEEE 802.3 10Base-FL and FOIRL standards.
  • Computers can be more than 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) from an Ethernet hub using the 10Base-FL interface.
  • Built-in Link Integrity and optical "idle" signal enhance data integrity, simplify problem resolution and allow simple measurements of transmitter power for testing fiber cable links.
  • CodeNet-8341B adapters are fully compatible with other 10Base-FL and FOIRL products and can be used with other manufacturers' concentrators and repeaters.
