Operating system or partition requirements
If you are installing a new feature, ensure that you have the software that is required to support the new
feature and that you determine whether any prerequisites must be met for this feature and attaching
devices. For information about operating system and partition requirements, see one of the following
topics:
• The latest version of enabling libraries and utilities can be downloaded from Fix Central (http://

PCIe2 4-port 1 GbE adapter (FC 5260, FC 5899, FC EL4L, and FC EL4M; CCIN 576F)
Learn about the specications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) 5260, FC
5899, FC EL4L, and EL4M adapters.
Overview
FC 5260, FC EL4M, FC 5899, and FC EL4L are the same adapter with different feature codes. FC 5260 and
EL4M are low-prole adapters and the FC 5899 and EL4L are full-height adapters.
These adapters provide four 1-Gb Ethernet ports that can be congured to run at 1000 megabits per
second (Mbps) (or 1 gigabit per second (Gbps)), 100 Mbps, or 10 Mbps. The adapter connects to a
network that uses unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable for distances of up to 100 meters (328.08 feet).
The adapter supports AIX Network Installation Management (NIM) boot capability. The adapter conforms
to the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T standard. The adapter supports jumbo frames when running at the
1000 Mbps speed.
Each of the Ethernet ports can be connected by using:
• CAT5e (or later) UTP cables for 1000 Mbps network attachment
• CAT5 or CAT3 UTP cables for 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps network attachment
The cables are attached to the copper RJ45 connectors. Each port is independent of one another and
supports full-duplex or half-duplex. The half-duplex mode does not support a speed of 1000 Mbps.
The adapter provides the following features:
• Supports interrupt moderation to deliver increased performance while signicantly reducing processor
utilization
