HISTORY:
Sustainability is the name of the game! Anything (that has been tested and still functioning properly) should be repurposed creating saving in wasted Ee and reducing the poisoning our environment when items are buried in the earth at the local tip needlessly.
Never heard of Ee? It is a concept that creates a measurement of ALL things (not just electronics) that humans have made and the energy used in obtaining the raw material, processing the materials right through to a finished product and even should include the shipping of the item to the distributors/retailers.

This card(s) was removed from some 'special purpose' network security boxes from Israel, known to be fully functioning cards.
INTEL - Network Interface Card
Manufactured in Philippines
Model: PRO/1000 GT
10/100/1000Mbps bandwidth
PCI architecture
NOTE the absence of your 'normal' metal card support bracket. You can still fit a bracket (not supplied) if required but in the original equipment that I removed this card from, the card sits in a micro-system board, supported by special brackets and there is no rear backplane such as with a 'normal' PC box. The card is just like all the other PRO/1000's that can be found in the market but the metal support bracket is missing. Of course the standard RJ45 socket is at the rear of this interface card and this interface port was extended to the outside world via special R100e cabling.
COSMETIC CONDITION:
USED
Clean
NO physical damage to the card (either side)
ALWAYS handled with strict ESD protection procedures in place, both during removal from the system and in "storage" with the card now having been placed within a sealed ESD packet.
