- High-performance Gigabit Network Connectivity with Intel® Active Management Technology
- High-performing, PCI Express*-based 10/100/1000 Ethernet connection
- Supports Intel® Active Management TechnologyΔ (Intel® AMT) to help IT discover, heal, and protect their computing assets (Intel® 82573E Gigabit Ethernet Controller)
- Simple installation and maintenance with Intel® SingleDriver™ technology
- Single-component design for compact LAN on motherboard (LOM) implementation with reduced bill of materials (BOM)
- Available with Intel® lead-free1 technology The Intel® 82573E/V/L Gigabit Ethernet Controllers are compact single-port integrated 10/100/1000 Mbps copper network-connection components for desktop, workstation, and value-server designs with critical space constraints. The 82573E supports Intel AMT, which allows IT to remotely discover, heal, and protect their computing assets. The 82573V supports ASF 2.0 and Advanced Pass. Through modes for legacy manageability applications. The 82573L offers lower power consumption for non-managed platforms.
- Intel Active Management Technology: The Intel 82573E controller is a key platform ingredient for enabling Intel AMT by providing always-available network connectivity and an integrated management engine. Intel AMT allows IT to discover, heal, and protect all the computing assets on their corporate network. With Intel AMT, IT managers can discover all their hardware and software computing assets. Because asset information is stored in non-volatile memory, IT can read it even if the PC is off or the operating system (OS) is inoperable. IT managers can heal systems remotely through Intel AMT’s out-of-band management capabilities, which allow remote diagnosis and repair of PCs after software, OS, or hardware failures. Intel AMT stores software and virus-protection version information that is consistent and up-to-date across the enterprise, helping protect systems against malicious software attacks. The 82573E is recommended for use on the Intel® Professional Business Platform based on the Intel® 945 Express Chipset family, which supports Intel AMT.
- Small-footprint Gigabit Ethernet implementation with integrated PCI Express
- (PCIe*) support: All three controllers allow original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to implement Gigabit Ethernet on their platforms in a compact board area with reduced BOM. Each has fully integrated Gigabit Ethernet Media Access Control (MAC) and Physical-Layer (PHY) functions, and each provides a standard IEEE 802.3* Ethernet interface for 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 10BASE-T applications. The controller’s host bus utilizes the PCIe architecture (Revision 1.0a) designed for high-performance and low-memory latency. The Intel 82573E/V/L controllers offer reduced system BOM opportunities by providing integrated voltage regulators and the ability to share the system BIOS Flash instead of requiring a separate EEPROM for local area network (LAN) configuration data.
- Performance-enhancing features: Each of the Intel 82573E/V/L controllers includes advanced interrupt handling features and uses efficient ring-buffer descriptor data structures with on-chip caching for up to 64 packet descriptors per queue. Other performance-enhancing features include offloading tasks from the host via Transmission Control Protocol/User Datagram Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/UDP/IP) checksum calculations and TCP segmentation.
- Simplified installation and maintenance with Intel® SingleDriver™ technology: These controllers are supported by Intel SingleDriver technology, which allows one driver to work for all Intel® PRO/1000 Gigabit Ethernet connections. Intel SingleDriver technology simplifies network connection installation, management, and maintenance.
- Available with lead-free1 technology: These Intel® controllers are packaged in a lead-free, 15x15 mm, 196-ball grid array for space-saving installation. Built on Intel lead-free technology, these controllers conform to the European Union’s Restrictions on the use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)2 and Japan’s White Goods Recycling Act.

| 1 Lead has not been intentionally added, but lead may still exist as an impurity below 1000 ppm.
2 Lead and other materials banned in the RoHS Directive are either (1) below all applicable substance thresholds as proposed by the EU or (2) an approved/pending exemption applies.
Δ Intel® Active Management Technology requires a system with an Intel® 945G Express Chipset, Intel® PRO/1000 PM network connection, and appropriate third-party software. |
