1 Setting Up and Using Your PC Workstation

Connecting to a Network

Your PC Workstation has a 10BT/100TX LAN interface adapter.

The LAN adapter supports both 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s operations and automatically detects which network type is being used.

1Connect the RJ-45 plug on your network cable to the LAN connector on the LAN Adapter. Push the plug into the connector until the plug clicks into place.

The board shown here is a combined SCSI/LAN board.

2Attach the other end of the LAN cable to a hub (or into a wall socket that is connected to a hub).

Let your Network Administrator know that you are connecting your PC Workstation to the network.

For further instructions on configuring your network connection, refer to “Configuring Your Network Connection” on page 103.

Refer also to the online Network Administrator’s Guide (preloaded onto your PC Workstation) for further instructions on setting up your PC Workstation for a LAN connection.
