A4. The PRO/100+ Server Adapter has a Limited Lifetime Warranty, which Intel will continue to honor. Adapters replaced under the Warranty will be replaced with the same or similar product. Please see the warranty statement in your user manual for warranty details.
Q5. Since Intel will no longer offer the PRO/100+ Server Adapter, is there a product you would recommend in its place?
A5. Yes. We recommend the PRO/100 S Server adapter, which is Intel's current generation of 10/100 Mbps adapter. This server adapter offers the combination of IPSec encryption offloading and managed 10/100 connections, protecting data while preserving network performance.
