Description

Cisco-1350T4-ENC is a card with a four port ethernet connection. New product in the orginal packaging. The card is made by ENET with a Cisco chipset.

A quad port PCIe card is a type of expansion card that provides four ports for connecting to a computer’s PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) slot. These cards are commonly used for various purposes, including:

1. Networking: Quad port PCIe network interface cards (NICs) are used to add multiple Ethernet ports to a computer, allowing for increased network connectivity and redundancy. They are often used in servers and high-performance workstations¹².
2. Storage: Some quad port PCIe cards are designed for storage expansion, providing additional SATA or NVMe ports for connecting multiple storage devices. This is useful for building RAID arrays or expanding storage capacity³.
3. High-Speed Data Transfer: These cards can also be used for high-speed data transfer applications, such as connecting to high-speed cameras, data acquisition systems, or other peripherals that require fast data throughput³.
4. Virtualization: In virtualized environments, quad port NICs can be used to provide dedicated network interfaces for virtual machines, improving network performance and isolation².
5. Load Balancing and Failover: Multiple network ports can be used for load balancing and failover, ensuring continuous network connectivity even if one port fails¹.

Overall, quad port PCIe cards are versatile and can significantly enhance the connectivity and performance of a computer system.
