Connecting the Cable

After making sure you have appropriate cabling, connect the cable to the adapter connector. (For Quartet adapters, connect up to four cables.)

Connecting the Quartet

Each Quartet adapter provides four separate connectors that can be used in any combination. If you load a Quartet network driver on a port that does not have a cable attached, you may receive a startup message on your server. This is normal and does not affect performance. To prevent this message, do not load the driver on a port unless a cable is attached.
