Connecting to other types of Ethernet networks

The Apple Ethernet AUI Adapter is a universal adapter that lets you connect your Macintosh to less-common types of industry-standard Ethernet media, such as thick coaxial or fiber-optic cable. If you are using the Apple Ethernet AUI Adapter, you also need an Ethernet transceiver for your specific media type; the transceiver must have a standard AUI port on it.

To connect your Macintosh to an Ethernet transceiver for other types of Ethernet media:

Shut down your Macintosh.

Connect the Ethernet transceiver to the network following the instructions that came with the transceiver.

Plug the transceiver cable from the Ethernet transceiver into the standard AUI port on the Apple Ethernet AUI Adapter.
