Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCI-Express Adapter

Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet PCI-Express Adapter ... from the server and server backbone to the switch infrastructure and now down through to the desktop and workstation. Just as networks migrated from 10-Mbit to 100-Mbit and gained a 10-fold improvement, the same will be true when moving from 100-Mbit to Gigabit. By alleviating congestion and removing bottlenecks, the network simply performs better.

By bringing Gigabit to the desktop and workstation, many benefits are achieved for network administrators and for end users. Deploying Gigabit is no longer an unattainable feat; it is a reality that is being achieved due to three items - affordability, ease of deployment, and performance benefits.
