The RapidFire Token Ring 16/4 PCI adapters 
offer high performance, low CPU utilization and 
a rich set of valuable features, such as Wake-

on-LAN and remote boot support. The RapidFire 
is available as Standard PCI profile, 3140 and 

the Low Profile PCI format as 31-04. Also  

available with fixed BootROM (special order).

RapidFire 3140 easily integrates into any 

network. It is compatible with the latest PCI-
based systems and supports automatic detection 
and selection of the following parameters: 

• 

4 or 16 Mbps ring speed 

• 

STP or UTP cable type 

• 

Full-duplex (DTR) or shared Token Ring 
connection  

Network drivers for most major operating 
systems are available from 

www.madge.com/software

. Unattended 

installation is supported for Windows  
simplifying workstation rollouts. 

Madge LAN Support Software (LSS) supports not 
only RapidFire 3140, but also all other Madge 
Token Ring adapters including CardBus, GoCard 

and PCMCIA and is available from our Web site. 
This single suite of drivers reduces the amount 

of software to be maintained and means that a 
single installation image or procedure can be 

used across all desktops, workstations, laptops 
and servers.  

RapidFire is the most cost-effective Token Ring 
connection. It features a high performance PCI 

bus master interface and has been enhanced 
with important new features that make it an 

ideal 16/4 Token Ring adapter. 

As well as ease-of-use, cost effective pricing and 

high performance, RapidFire 3140 supports the 
industry initiatives including Wake -on-LAN, 
Remote Boot, ACPI (Advanced Configuration and 

Power Interface) and promiscuous mode 
(network interrogation) support.  

The BootROM socket (or fixed device) allows remote
boot functionality. This gives Network Administrators 
the ability to make PC start up more secure and 

controllable. 

The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface 

(ACPI) is a industry standard for PCI devices. It 
allows an ACPI-aware PC to understand the 

power consumption requirements of each PCI 
device. This means an ACPI operating system 
such as Windows 2000 can economically control 

the power state of a PC. The PC can be 
automatically placed in a low power state and 

quickly resume full operation at the command of 
the user or of a re mote management console 
using Microsoft OnNow.
