Inserting the 3C319 NIC
Follow these steps to insert the 3C319 NIC:
1 Insert the 3C319 NIC in an empty ISA or EISA
expansion slot.
Make sure it is completely seated in the slot by pushing
down firmly on both ends of the NIC.
2 Connect one of the following network cable types
to the 3C319 NIC:
■
Shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable with a
DB-9 connector
■
Unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable with an
RJ-45 connector
CAUTION: Connect the cable only to the 3C319 NIC
that you have just installed. Connecting the cable to
other NICs could cause serious damage to them and
the token ring network.
TokenLink Velocity NICs support industry-standard token
ring Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP or types 1 or 6 STP cabling.
These cables meet IEEE 802.5 specifications.
Do not daisy-chain token ring NICs or connect them
back to back.
