The MERCUSYS MA210E V2 is a Gigabit PCIe network adapter designed to add a reliable wired Ethernet connection to compatible desktop computers. Equipped with a PCI Express interface and one 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 port, it supports automatic speed negotiation for everyday internet access, local file transfers and network-connected applications. The adapter combines Wake-on-LAN, IEEE 802.3x Flow Control and Energy-Efficient Ethernet technology with straightforward Windows installation. Its included standard and low-profile mounting brackets provide flexibility for different desktop PC chassis designs. Key Features Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity: One RJ45 port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation for wired network connections. PCI Express Interface: Installs into a compatible desktop computer's PCI Express expansion slot. Wake-on-LAN: Supports remote computer wake-up through a network signal when the motherboard also supports the feature. Energy-Efficient Ethernet: IEEE 802.3az technology supports reduced network interface power consumption. IEEE 802.3x Flow Control: Supports Ethernet traffic flow control when used with compatible network equipment. Flexible Installation: Includes standard and low-profile brackets, with plug-and-play installation on supported Windows versions.

This is an internal network adapter, not a USB adapter. Wired Ethernet Only: Provides one RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet connection and does not add wireless Wi-Fi connectivity. Operating System Support: Supports Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, XP and Vista. Windows 11/10/8.1/8 support plug-and-play installation; drivers for other supported versions are available from MERCUSYS. Wake-on-LAN Requirement: The computer motherboard must also support Wake-on-LAN for the feature to operate. Flow Control: Requires compatible connected network equipment for the corresponding flow-control function. Actual Network Performance: Gigabit Ethernet speed is a physical link rate. Actual throughput depends on network equipment, Ethernet cabling and computer performance.
