Hello all,

I've got a G4 that I'd like to install Server on and am interested in acquiring a multiport NIC like the one that ships with the servers from the Apple store. However, the Apple store doesn't appear to have it as an individually available item (or at least I haven't located it), and I've not found one on Asante's web site.

Anyone have any idea where to purchase one or who makes the one in the G4 Server?

Best regards,
Chris

Well, it would appear that I wasn't searching on the right terms. A little
more searching reveals that it's probably this guy here:

<a href="http://www.dlink.com/products/adapters/dfe580tx/" target="_blank">http://www.dlink.com/products/adapters/dfe580tx/</a>

OSX supports the DEC 2114x chipset out of the box, of which this card sports four DEC 21143s and a single DEC 21152 divvying up the bus.

Best regards,
Chris

FWIW, I believe the Apple card is, in fact, a ZNYX 370

I'm pretty sure it's a ZNYX card, and their only other PCI card specifically says it's NOT Mac OS X compatible.
