What to Do

1. Locate the RJ-45 twisted-pair Ethernet (TPE) connector for the appropriate

Ethernet interface—the top connector or the bottom connector.

See “Locating Back Panel Features” on page 16. For a PCI Ethernet adapter card, see
the documentation supplied with the card.

2. Connect a Category-5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable to the appropriate

RJ-45 connector.

You should hear the connector tab click into place. The UTP cable length must not
exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

3. Connect the other end of the cable to the RJ-45 outlet to the appropriate network

device.

You should hear the connector tab click into place.

Consult your network documentation if you need more information about how to
connect to your network.
