Full-duplex (DTR) or shared Token Ring connection

Network drivers for all major operating systems can be downloaded from

http://www.360docs.net/doc/f3ca7a48be1e650e52ea99d4.html/software. Unattended installation is supported for Windows 95 and Windows NT simplifying workstation rollouts.

Madge LAN Support Software includes a range of UniDrivers supporting not only RapidFire 3140 standard and low profile versions, but also most other Madge Token Ring adapters including CardBus, GoCard and PCMCIA and is available at no charge from our Web site. This single suite of drivers reduces the amount of software to be maintained and means that a single installation image or procedure can be used across all desktops, workstations, laptops and servers - reducing running costs

Value and performance

RapidFire 3140 is the most cost-effective Token Ring

connection. It features a high performance PCI bus master interface and has been

enhanced with important new features that make it an ideal 16/4 Token Ring adapter for low profile PC’s and servers.

Advanced feature set

As well as ease-of-use, cost effective pricing and high performance, RapidFire 3140 supports the latest industry initiatives including Wake-on-LAN, Remote Boot, ACPI

(Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) and

promiscuous mode (network interrogation) support in the PCI low profile sizing. The BootRom socket supports optional remote boot functionality. This gives Network Administrators the ability to make PC start up more secure and controllable using either PXE or RIPL. The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is a new industry standard for PCI devices. This means an ACPI operating system such as

Windows 98 or Windows 2000 can economically control the power state of a PC.
