Applications
ISA Ethernet NICs like the HP 27247-60003 were standard networking adapters for IBM-compatible PCs throughout the early-to-mid 1990s, when the 16-bit ISA bus was the dominant expansion slot standard. Cards of this type were used to connect desktop PCs and workstations to 10BaseT twisted-pair Ethernet networks, which were rapidly displacing older coaxial (10Base2/10Base5) infrastructures during this era. The AUI port allowed connection to external transceivers for alternate media types, including thick coax or fiber. Today these cards are sought by hobbyists maintaining vintage PC systems, retro computing enthusiasts, and technicians keeping legacy DOS/Windows 3.x/Windows 95-era machines operational on period-appropriate networks. The HP Vectra line and other HP workstations of the early 1990s commonly used adapters of this type.
This HP 27247-60003 16-bit ISA 10BaseT Ethernet NIC has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was previously in service. The card shows normal light wear consistent with prior use. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
