3. Insert the other end of the USB cable (the A-
type connector) into the USB port on your PC.
The adapter is now connected to your PC.

4. Connect your adapter to a 10Mbps or 10Mbps/
100Mbps auto-sensing hub using Category 5 UTP
RJ-45 straight-through cabling. The RJ-45 jacks
should fit into the RJ-45 port on both the adapter
and the hub.

Note: Do

NOT

connect the USB Network Adapter

directly to another network card or adapter.

Remember that a 10Mbps/100Mbps dual speed
network always uses Category 5 Twisted Pair
RJ-45
cabling or better. Cables of lesser quatity
and category will not work. Be sure that your
cables are free of defects and that they do not
exceed 100 meters (328 feet) in length.

If you are connecting to a 10Mbps Ethernet, you
can use Category 3 cables instead. However, it is
always best to use Cat 5 Fast Ethernet cables so
that you won’t need to buy new cables when you
upgrade to Fast Ethernet.
