Installation Procedures
Discharge any static electricity from your body before
handling the sensitive board of the card. Handle the card
by its edges, and be careful not to twist or flex it. Follow
the steps below to install the card:
•
Unpack the card package.
•
Switch off your computer's power.
Note: To prevent equipment damage and injury,
never apply the power when installing. Turn off any
devices that you may attach to the computer.
•
Remove your computer's unit cover.
•
Locate a free PCI local bus master slot.
•
Remove the slot cover and screw.
•
Insert the card into the chosen and correct slot
carefully.
•
Put the computer's unit cover back.
Making Network Connection
Make sure the power to your computer is off to avoid
damage to both the computer and the network interface
card.
Using the RJ-45 plug and twisted-pair cable, connect the
network interface card to a 10BASE-T or 100 BASE-TX
or 1000 BASE-X HUB (concentrator). Note that the
maximum cable length between a hub and any computer
is 100 meters (328 feet).
Note: Make sure you have the correct wiring. To
reliably operate your network at 1000/100Mbps, you
must use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Category 5
or better Data Grade wire. While Category 3 or 4
wire may initially seem to work, it will soon cause
data loss. The higher speed needs higher quality wire.
For 10 Mbps operation, you can use either UTP
Category 3, 4, or 5 Data Grade wire.
