Connecting the Network Cable

Network connections for the NC7131 Server Adapter can employ existing UTP Category 5 (or
better) cable for Gigabit over copper transmissions. For new installations, Category 5e
(enhanced Category 5) or better cable is recommended.

To secure the cable, plug the cable connector into the RJ-45 port. Ensure that the tab on the plug
clicks into position indicating that it is properly seated.

For more information, see “UTP Cable Specifications” in Appendix C.
