Cabling

In preparation for cabling{ XE "Network Installation:Cabling" }, NCS Pearson recommends that you do the following:

•Set the computer on the back lip of the shelf during cable installation so that the back of the computer is tilted up. This provides easier access to the computer's ports.

•Uncoil all cords and cables, separate them, and lay them out on the floor.

The following cabling instructions are for a network configuration{ XE "Cabling:Network configuration" }. Refer to Figures 3-4 and

3-5, and Table 3-1 at the end of this chapter.
