Appendix B. Additional Ethernet information
This appendix contains connector and cable specifications, diagnostic LED
indications, and Ethernet error messages for the Ethernet controller that is included
with some models.
Connector and Cable Specifications
The system board contains an Ethernet controller. The controller has an external
RJ-45 connector on the rear of the computer that is used with a Category 3 or
Category 5 twisted-pair cable. Through this connector, you can attach an Ethernet
network cable to the internal transceiver in your computer.
Attention:
The 10BASE-T Ethernet and the 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet cabling in the network
must be Category 5 or higher to meet various standards, including electromagnetic
compatibility.
