Quick Reference Guide

network adapter
connector

To attach your computer to a network or broadband device,
connect one end of a network cable to either a network jack
or your network or broadband device. Connect the other
end of the network cable to the network adapter connector
on the back panel of your computer. A click indicates that
the network cable has been securely attached.

NOTE:

Do not plug a telephone cable into the network

connector.

On computers with a network adapter card, use the
connector on the card.

It is recommended that you use at least Category 5 wiring
and connectors for your network. If you must use Category 3
wiring, force the network speed to 10 Mbps to ensure
reliable operation.

most speakers with integrated amplifiers.

On computers with a sound card, use the connector on the
card.

computer microphone for voice or musical input into a
sound or telephony program.

On computers with a sound card, use the connector on the
card.

USB 2.0
