Secure connectivity through fiber
The 2712FX is designed to provide desktop computers with network connections through a high-speed multi-mode fiber-optic link with an SC or MT interface. The 2712FX supports Microsoft Windows 2003, XP and Vista operating systems, and is compliant with industry standards.
Comprehensive software support
Allied Telesis 2712FX adapters feature software to assist users with network setup and configuration. An offline user diagnostics program provides system administrators and engineers with a valuable tool to analyze the adapter and check data. In addition, the Broadcom Advance Control Suite program simplifies controlling and configuring all 2712FX cards.
Hassle-free support
All Allied Telesis Network Adapters offer technical support, ensuring trouble-free installation.
Secure encrypted data transmission
IP Security (IPSec) is a suite of protocols for securing Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and/or encrypting each IP packet in a data stream. The cryptographic algorithms that are used in IPSec operation are computationally intensive, which can overwhelm the host CPU at high network speeds. The 2712FX implements hardware that performs these intensive cryptographic algorithms, known as IPSec task offload v2. The 2712FX supports the transport mode of IPSec Authentication Header (AH) and Encapsulation Security Payload (ESP) protocols for end-to-end security of packet traffic. Simultaneous AH and ESP task offload is also supported for up to 32 Security Associations (SA).
DASH
Desktop and mobile Architecture for System Hardware (DASH) is a DMTF management initiative that represents a suite of specifications, which standardize the management interfaces for mobile and desktop hardware. The DASH suite of specifications defines the interfaces for management in the form of protocols and profiles that represent mobile and desktop hardware.
