Startechcom st1000spex2 Pcie Gigabit Nic Card 1 Port

Product Description

The STARTECHCOM st1000spex2 is a single-port PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet network adapter card designed for servers and workstations that require a dedicated or additional network interface. It installs into a PCIe slot and delivers gigabit-speed wired network connectivity. The dual-profile bracket design supports both full-height and low-profile chassis configurations, making it a practical fit for standard tower servers as well as small form-factor builds. Licensed network technicians and IT infrastructure professionals are the typical installers for this type of card.

This adapter is suited for residential or commercial network infrastructure upgrades where a system lacks an onboard NIC or requires a dedicated gigabit interface separate from the motherboard. It is applicable in server builds, workstations, and desktop systems equipped with an available PCIe slot. The dual-profile bracket makes it compatible with both standard and compact chassis form factors without requiring an additional bracket purchase.
