NIC: Dell OptiPlex GX1 Systems

The OptiPlex GX1 systems are available with or without an integrated Ethernet NIC subsystem.

The integrated 10/100-Mbps 3Com� PCI 3C905B-TX Ethernet NIC subsystem supports the Wakeup On LAN feature and the 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T standards. The NIC subsystem connects to the Ethernet network through a single RJ45 connector on the back of the computer. The RJ45 connector and the NIC interface circuitry are mounted on the system board.

The NIC connector on the computer’s back panel has the following indicators:

  • A yellow activity indicator that flashes when the system is transmitting or receiving network data. (A high volume of network traffic may make this indicator appear to be in a steady “on” state.)
  • A green link integrity indicator that lights up when there is a good connection between the network and the NIC. When the green indicator is off, the system is not detecting a physical connection to the network.

 

See Chapter 4, "Using Integrated Devices," in the Reference and Installation Guide for information on configuring the NIC.
