FCC STATEMENT The adapter has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Ø Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Ø Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Ø Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference. (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. EC DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY (EUROPE) In compliance with the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, the adapter meets the requirements of the following standards: Ø EN55022 Ø EN55024 SAFETY NOTICES Caution: Do not use this product near water, for example, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool. Avoid using this product during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. Thank you for purchasing TP-LINK TG-3269 10/100/1000M Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. This document provides detailed guidelines to install and use the adapter for network installers or users. TG-3269 is a 32-bit PCI 10/100/1000Mbps NWay Gigabit LAN adapter. TG-3269 provides extremely fast data transfer rates up to 2000Mbps at full duplex mode for high bandwidth usage in areas such as network servers, workstations, Storage Area Networks (SANs), Network Attach Storage (NAS) and high-speed video streaming. This manual is divided into two chapters and two appendices. The following summarizes the contents of the chapters and appendices. Chapter 1 Introduction Hardware Overview TG-3269 is a highly integrated and cost-effective single-chip Gigabit Ethernet Adapter that provides 32-bit performance, PCI bus master capability, and full compliance with IEEE 802.3 10Base-T, IEEE802.3u 100Base-TX and IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T specifications. It also supports ACPI, PCI power management for modern operating systems that are capable of Operating System Directed Power Management (OSPM) to achieve the most efficient power management. Through the aid of a VLAN membership, TG-3269 adheres to the 802.1Q for multiple VLAN support, and 802.1P for packet prioritization. With 802.1Q support, server resources can be shared with multiple VLANs when used in conjunction with any 802.1Qenabled Switch. With the 802.1p support, TG-3269 allows a range of 1 Ethernet packets to be prioritized from a critical to a non-critical designation through a priority tag. TG-3269 supports Full Duplex operations at 20/200/2000 Mbps data speeds used in conjunction with 802.3x flow control support. With 802.3x flow control TG-3269 uses both asymmetric and symmetric functions via the MAC control pause function. Any participating 802.3x flow control node can be controlled by initiating a pause control to stop incoming network traffic, to further reduce network congestion. By default TG-3269 supports the standard 1518 Byte frame size. In addition, TG-3269 can also be configured to use a maximum Jumbo Frame size of up to 7680Bytes. It includes an interface for a boot ROM and can be used in diskless workstations, providing maximum network security and ease of management. Also, being PCI 2.2 compliant, TG-3269 works with 32-bit 33Mhz PCI busses. This compatibility provides users with an easy migration path to increase performance between servers and workstations for large file transfer, video editing and server clustering for data intensive applications.
