Product Description
The IBM 42C1762 is a server-grade network interface card (NIC) designed to provide high-speed network connectivity. It features a PCI-Express x8 interface, which is a standard for modern server motherboards, offering ample bandwidth for demanding network traffic. The adapter is equipped with a single port, intended for connection to network infrastructure via fiber optic cabling. While the title specifies '10Base-SR', this is an extremely old Ethernet standard (10 Mbps). Given the context of a PCIe x8 server adapter and 'Gigabit Ethernet', it is highly probable that this refers to a 1000Base-SX/LX (Gigabit Ethernet over multimode/single-mode fiber) or potentially a 10GbE SR (10 Gigabit Ethernet over multimode fiber) standard, as these are far more common for server adapters of this era and interface type. The 'SR' designation typically implies Short Reach, often using multimode fiber. This adapter is designed in a low-profile form factor, making it suitable for installation in compact server chassis, such as 1U or 2U rackmount servers. Its primary function is to enable or enhance network connectivity for servers, facilitating data transfer, communication, and access to network resources within enterprise environments.
