Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the USB
Network Adapter.
Now you can connect to any 10Mbps or 10Mbps/
100Mbps hub without having to install any inter-
nal cards or hardware! The USB Network Adapter
from Linksys allows you to connect to a network
instantly from a USB-enabled PC, notebook PC,
or even a USB hub. The Plug-and-Play compatible
device attaches to any Universal Serial Bus-
enabled PC or hub via a USB Type B receptacle.
Connect a standard Category 5 RJ-45 network
cable in the other end, install the included NDIS
drivers, and go. You’ll be networked in no time!
The USB Network Adapter is bus-powered -- it
draws power from the host PC and requires no
external power cords. The low 500mA maximum
power consumption rate is complimented by an
energy-saving auto-sleep function. Compatibility
with Windows 98 makes it easy for almost anyone
with a USB-ready PC or notebook to connect to a
10Mbps or 10/100 network. Use it in conjunction
with a USB 4-Port Hub, (Model: USBHUB04)
and you can operate up to four USB devices
simultaneously. The USB Network Adapter fea-
tures an 8Mbps maximum throughput, easy-to-
read LEDs, compact design, a 1-year limited war-
ranty, and free world-class technical support -- all
for a low price that’ s hard to beat.
