Low-cost PCIe x1 2.5GBASE-T network adapter for industrial and embedded systems.
When legacy Gigabit ports bottleneck industrial control systems or embedded devices, upgrading infrastructure is often cost-prohibitive. The LRES2022PT network adapter solves this by enabling 2.5GbE speeds through standard PCIe x1 slots without requiring new cabling.
Based on the Realtek RTL8125 controller, this card delivers 2500Mbps throughput over existing Cat5e/6 copper up to 100m, eliminating the need for expensive 10G upgrades. With only 1.0W power consumption, it ensures energy-efficient operation in space-constrained chassis while supporting DPDK and Jumbo Frames for optimized data handling.
Ideal for digital multimedia and single-board computers, this adapter supports Windows, Linux, and VMware environments. Unlike generic alternatives, it offers verified driver stability for industrial automation, providing a reliable multi-gigabit upgrade path for budget-sensitive deployments.
Delivers 2500Mbps throughput over existing Cat5e/6 cabling, providing 250% higher speed than Gigabit Ethernet without new infrastructure.
Operates at only 1.0W power consumption, ensuring energy efficiency and reduced thermal output in compact industrial chassis.
Supports Windows, Linux (CentOS/Ubuntu), and VMware ESX/ESXi environments for versatile deployment across industrial and server platforms.
Utilizes standard PCIe x1 slot for universal compatibility with desktops, embedded systems, and industrial control computers.
Includes DPDK, Jumbo Frames, PXE boot, and Wake-on-LAN support for optimized network performance and remote management capabilities.
