AlphaServer 8400

Step 8—Networks and Communications

Two twisted-pair 802.3/Ethernet controllers on KFTIA-AA system I/O module included with Base Server; DE500 fast ethernet network interface card included with Expanded Base Server. See Step 5 for twisted-pair Ethernet cable part number. Optional DEFPZ-AA/UA (FDDI) daughter card can be installed on KFTIA-AA system I/O module. Select additional devices if required. Note: Connection of system to Ethernet requires twisted-pair cable. See Network Products Guide for details.
