network and the computer.

 

 

Orange — A good connection exists between a 100-Mbps

 

 

network and the computer.

 

 

Yellow — A good connection exists between a 1000-Mbps

 

 

(or 1-Gbps) network and the computer.

network adapter

To attach your computer to a network or broadband device,

 

connector

connect one end of a network cable to either a network jack or

 

 

your network or broadband device. Connect the other end of

 

 

the network cable to the network adapter connector on your

 

 

computer. A click indicates that the network cable has been

 

 

securely attached.

 

 

Do not plug a telephone cable into the network connector.

 

 

On computers with an additional network connector card, use

 

 

the connectors on the card and on the back of the computer

 

 

when setting up multiple network connections (such as

 

 

a separate intra- and extranet).

 

 

It is recommended that you use Category 5 wiring and connectors

 

 

for your network. If you must use Category 3 wiring, force the

 

 

network speed to 10 Mbps to ensure reliable operation.
