P 4 3 0
The P430 must be placed in one of the PCI bus slots available.
To install the P430, power down the computer, remove the cover, and
select an empty PCI slot. Remove the bracket from the back of the
computer corresponding to the PCI slot selected. Ground yourself to
the computer chassis to prevent static discharge. Insert the P430 board
into the PCI slot. Secure the board firmly with the set screw that holds
it to the bracket. Inspect the P430 to make sure that the board is completely
inserted into the PCI slot. The set screw should easily secure the P430
in place.

This section describes how to connect 10Mbps or 100Mbps network
cables to the P430.
N O T E :
Connect the P430 to the network before loading the driver.
The backplate of the P430 contains four RJ-45 connectors. For 10Base-T
Ethernet networks, the P430 uses Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-
pair (UTP) cable. For 100Base-TX Ethernet networks, the P430 must
use only Category 5 UTP cabling. To establish a valid 10Mbps connection,
the cable must be connected to a 10Base-T hub/switch. To establish a
valid 100Mbps connection, the cable must be connected to a 100Base-TX
hub/switch.
