accessory board inside your PC, you will need a flat-blade screwdriver. See chapter 3,

CONNECTING TO A NETWORK
The LAN Adapter installed in your PC may have two RJ-45 connectors (one for 100-Mbit/s
operation and one for 10-Mbit/s operation) or one RJ-45 connector (supporting both 100-Mbit/s
and 10-Mbit/s).
The LAN Adapter can automatically detect which connector or network type is being used.
1 Connect the RJ-45 plug on your network cable to the 100-Mbit/s or 10-Mbit/s LAN
connector on the LAN Adapter as appropriate for your network type. Push the plug into the
connector until the plug clicks into place.
100-Mbit/s
10 Mbit/s
Connect the
network cable to
the 100-Mbit/s or
10-Mbit/s LAN
connector
(Your LAN
adapter may
have one
connector which
supports both
network types.)
2 Attach the other end of the LAN cable to a hub (or into a wall jack that is connected to a
hub).
Let your Network Administrator know you are connecting your PC to the network. Refer to
the online Network Administrator Guide (provided with the disk kit) for instructions on
setting up your PC for a LAN connection.
CONNECTING A PRINTER
If you have a printer, connect its cable to the back of the computer and tighten the attachment
screws. Use these connectors:
• Parallel (25-pin parallel connector) for a parallel device
• Serial A (9-pin serial connector) for a serial device
• Serial B (9-pin serial connector) for a second serial device.
