5.Installation Procedures
5.1Insert the Networking Interface Card
Step1. Switch off the computer, unplug the power cord, and remove the computer’s cover.
Step2. Select an unused PCI bus-master slot and remove its protective bracket. Step3. Push the Adapter into the slot until the adapter is securely seated. Then
secure the adapter bracket with a screw.
Step4. Attached the Wake-On-LAN cable (Optional). If you require Wake-On-LAN capability from a powered-off state, attach one end of the 3-pin Wake-On-LAN cable to the connector on the top edge of the card, and the other end to the “5 V Standby” connector on the computer’s motherboard.
Step5. Connect the Adapter directly to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX hub or switch using UTP cable (Category 3,4 or 5for 10BASE-T；Category 5 for 100BASE-TX). The maximum allowable length of UTP cable connections is 100 meters (328ft). When inserting an RJ-45 plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated.
Step6. Put back the computer cover and plug in the power cord.
Step7. Turn the power on. The computer's PCI BIOS automatically assigns resources to the Adapter.
