Getting Started
Open the shipping container carefully and verify that you
have received the adapter you ordered. Inspect the adapter
for damage. If you find any damage, contact your network
supplier and the carrier that delivered the package.
CAUTION:
Each adapter is packed in antistatic material to
protect it during shipment. To avoid damaging any
static-sensitive components after removal from the container,
be sure to reduce any static electricity on your person. One way
to do this is to touch the metal chassis of your computer.
