D-Link DFE-910

D-Link DFE-910 ... Internet connection. But the idea of setting up and configuring a network is intimidating, and the price of all the necessary components can add up. However, now there's D-Link's DFE-910 Network in a Box, which gives you high-performance hardware and all the components you need to get started in one low-cost package.

This networking kit includes two 10/100Base-TX PCI LAN cards, a five-port 10/100Base-TX hub, two 20-foot cables, and a software package including drivers, Internet connection sharing, and game demos. Each of the NICs supports full-duplex operation and Plug & Play, and has two LED status indicators on the I/O shield. The DSH-5 5-port N-way hub automatically detects the presence of 10Base-T or 100Base-TX cards, so you'll be able to plug in a PC with an older 10BT connection. An uplink port is present, for conencting to another hub or to a switch. The DSH-5 has LED indicators for power, 10-Mbps collision, 100-Mbps collision, connection speed, port status, and expansion port full duplex status. A 25-user copy of MidPoint Lite is included in the software bundle, allowing 25 PC's on a network to share a single Internet connection. Game demos of Warcraft 2 and Diablo are also part of the bundle, so you'll be able to enjoy multiplayer network gaming action right away. In the DFE-910 kit, D-Link has provided everything you need to start a home or small business network at a value price. Installation is simple, yet the hardware is powerful and leaves room for expanding your network later on as your needs grow.
