Lantronix NM2-GXE-2230-xx-201 Install Guide Product Description Lantronix NM2-GXE-2230-xx-201 Series M.2 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Network Interface Cards (NICs) provide a fixed LC fiber optic interface or a 1000Base‐X Open SFP Slot for the Dell OptiPlex™ 3060/5060/7060, 7070 and 7080 Micro PCs. The NM2-GXE-2230-xx-201 Series consists of an M.2 NIC that installs into the OptiPlex PC's M.2 "A or E keyed" interface, a fiber optic adapter that installs into the OptiPlex Micro PC's Option port, and a 20-pin Flat Flex Cable (FFC) that connects the NIC to the fiber adapter. The NICs are electro-mechanically designed to be compatible (fit, form, function) with these Dell OptiPlex PCs using the M.2 (A or E Key) slot. M.2 is a specification for internally mounted computer expansion cards and associated connectors. Desktop PCs are being replaced by smaller computing devices (such as Thin Clients, Micro PCs, Ultrabooks, and Tablets) which typically have internal M.2 interfaces but do not have PCI or PCIe slots. Many users still need fiber Ethernet access, and without the external PCIe slot, there is no standard fiber interface on these devices. See the Dell OptiPlex manual for important notes, cautions, and warnings. Read the section "Before working inside your computer" before proceeding.
