I have used the BOCA BB2016 16 port card, it works very well and is
pretty fast, beware though that the ports on it are RJ-45 as standard
but there is an adapter box available (unless you want to make your
own leads like I did).

If you want info on the kernel setup etc I can email it to you ...

Cheers
