Comparison of the Performance of Various MCA Ethernet Adapters 

I DIMMly remember that theWD8003 adapters are supported under AIX for PS/2.

SMC acquired Western Digital's NICs. So a WD8003 corresponds to a Elite 16 8003. 
NOTE:  W95 / WinNT 4.0 drivers exist for SMC (WD) 8003E, 8003W, 8013EP, 8013WP

LED Indicators 

P - Polarity Correction LED (Green) 
On when twisted-pair received signal polarity is correct and link is valid ("L" indicator is on). If this is off when "L" is on, the adapter will still operate properly, but the received signal polarity is reversed.

L - Link Integrity LED (Green) 
On when twisted-pair link is valid (10BaseT Link Test Pass mode) or when W21 (Link Integrity Test) is installed. It shows that RJ-45 is being used instead of AUI.

T - Transmit LED (Yellow) 
This flashes when the adapter is transmitting.

R - Receive LED (Green)  
This flashes when adapter is receiving. It also flashes when transmit data from adapter is looped back to receiver by on-board twisted-pair transceiver or by an external transceiver connected to AUI.

ROM Size Jumpers (W9, W10) 


AMD27C128-200, 27C256, 27C512-200 will work as well.


W21 - Link Integrity Test  


With this jumper (see Figure 1) removed, which is the normal setting, link integrity test pulses are transmitted and received according to the 10BaseT standard. If this jumper is installed, the link integrity test is NOT performed (no link test pulses are generated, and received link test pulses are ignored). The twisted-pair port (RJ-45) is enabled and the AUi port is disabled.

The adapter board will operate correctly when used in "StarLAN IO" networks without Link Integrity such as those by AT&T and Hewlett Packard, even though "StarLAN 1 O" without Link Integrity is not fully 10BaseT compatible. To operate the LAN adapter in this mode, the link integrity test function must be disabled (Jumper installed).

W20 Polarity Connection  
If you have an Ethernet 10BaseT adapter that has an additional jumper labelled W20 "Polarity Correction'" please leave this jumper in the factory installed on position (as labeled on the board).
