Installing the Hardware

1.Network cards are sensitive to static electricity, which can damage their delicate electronic components. To protect your device, always:

•Touch the metal chassis of your computer before you pick up the card. This grounds the electrostatic charge.

•Avoid touching any of the electrical components when handling the card. If possible, wear a grounded wrist strap or anti-static gloves.

Note: Dry weather conditions or walking across a carpeted floor may cause you to acquire an electrostatic charge.

2.Turn off the power to the PC and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

3.Remove the cover to the

PC. Please refer to your computer’s installation manual for instructions on how to remove the cover.

4. Find any available PCI expansion bus slot and remove the protector bracket from the computer’s case. If you are planning to install the Wake-On-LAN (WOL) feature choose an empty PCI slot that is close to the matching WOL connector on the PC’s motherboard.
