6 Connect one of the following network cable types to
the 3C359 NIC:
■
Shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable with a DB-9 connector
■
Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with an RJ-45
connector
TokenLink Velocity NICs support industry-standard
token ring Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP or types 1 or 6 STP
cabling. These cables meet IEEE 802.5 specifications. (See
Appendix A, “Specifications,” for detailed information
regarding cable requirements and connector pin
assignments for the 3C359 NIC.)
7 Connect the other end of the cable to a network dual
access unit (DAU), a multistation access unit (MAU),
controlled access unit (CAU), or a token ring switch.
The 3C359 NIC can operate in full-duplex mode when
attached to a Dedicated Token Ring (DTR)-enabled switch.
Full-duplex mode is enabled automatically.
8 Return all packing materials to the shipping container.
If it is necessary to return the 3C359 NIC to 3Com, pack it
in the original (or equivalent) packing material to maintain
the warranty.
