dataMate Products' High Speed Over Copper Gigabit Ethernet Adapter

dataMate Products announces its new high speed over copper ExpressCard Form-Factor Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. This high-speed data transfer solution is targeted at the emerging ExpressCard market where next generation laptops are configured with ExpressCard slots. The Adapter is available as a fully packaged, consumer-quality product. The dataMate Adapter enables all laptops to support the ExpressCard Form-Factor that is the new standard in notebook computers. The Adapter is housed in a standard 34mm ExpressCard case, which is one-half the size of a standard PCMCIA card, and is easily plugged into any laptop ExpressCard port.

dataMate has designed the new Gigabit Ethernet ExpressCard Adapter to be compliant with the ExpressCard standard. It offers 10/100/1000M data rate auto-negotiation, it is IEEE 802.3 compliant, and it features full duplex mode that doubles the network connection speed. The Adapter is Microsoft plug-and-play compatible, is easy to install, and offers power management support with easy-to-read LED indicators. When a standard CAT 5/6 Ethernet cable is plugged into the Adapter, the user will have access to upload and download speeds ranging from 100 Mbs (Megabits-per-second) to 1 Gbs (Gigabits-per-second), depending on their network capability. No external power is required as the Adapter is powered by the PC system. The Adapter is FCC and CE compliant.
