>Ah...right. What is Cardbus anyway?
Q: What is the difference between a CardBus card and the PC Card
A: CardBus is an extension of the latest PCMCIA standard. It is derived
from the PCI architecture popular in desktops. This means that CardBus is
capable of 32-bit, 33Mhz operation, and utilizes bus-mastering. The PC
Cards being sold today are 16-bit adapters patterned on the older ISA
architecture used in desktops. The CardBus architecture lends itself to
much higher throughput when used in high-bandwidth applications, such as
high-speed networking.
Q: What is the difference between the RealPort CardBus Ethernet 10/100 and
the RealPort Ethernet 10/100?
A: The RBE-100 is a 32-bit Integrated PC Card which has higher
performance, uses less power and includes power management advantages over
the RE-100. The RBE-100 provides higher throughput with its 32-bit
bus-mastering architecture which increases the data transfer speeds
between the notebook and the network without burdening the PC's processor.
It brings PCI-based performance to your CardBus-equipped notebook in both
10Mbps and 100Mbps network environments. CardBus 32-bit PC Cards (like the
RBE-100) deliver up to 80Mbps networking speeds, while 16-bit PC Cards
(like the RE-100) deliver a maximum of 20Mbps.
