easy to do: just reinstall the DFE-680TX in another slot.
Step 2: Attach the Media Coupler
The back-end receptacle of the DFE-680TX remains accessible (approximately flush with
the case of the computer) when the DFE-680TX is properly seated in its PC Card slot.
Taking care to keep the top side of the media coupler plug up, insert the plug into the
DFE-680TX's receptacle until it is firmly seated and latched. (The top side of the plug is
labeled with a triangle molded into the plastic.)
NOTE:
When the media coupler plug is firmly seated, it is held in place by small
latching hooks at either side of the plug. To avoid damage when detaching the plug from
the DFE-680TX, it is necessary to depress the latch wings of the plug. See the following
section, " Remove the DFE-680TX."
Step 3: Connect to the Network Medium
Make the network connection by running a UTP cable from the supporting switch or hub
to your media coupler. Simply plug one end (RJ-45 plug) of the cable into an available
port of the switch or hub, and plug the other end (RJ-45 plug) into the RJ-45 socket of
your media coupler.
