Integrated Network Interface Controller Connector
Your system has an integrated 10/100/1000-megabit-per-second (Mbps) network interface controller (NIC). The NIC provides all the functions of a separate
network expansion card while providing fast communication between servers and workstations and efficient utilization of host resources, freeing more of the
system resources for other applications. The NIC supports 10 Base-T, 100 Base-TX, and 1000 Base-T Ethernet standards.

Network Cable Requirements
Your system's RJ45 NIC connector is designed for attaching an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet cable equipped with a standard RJ45-compatible plug.
Press one end of the UTP cable into the NIC connector until the plug snaps securely into place. Connect the other end of the cable to an RJ45 jack wall plate or
to an RJ45 port on a UTP concentrator or hub, depending on your network configuration. Observe the following cabling restrictions for 10 Base-T, 100 Base-TX,
and 1000 Base-T networks.
l Use Category 5 or greater wiring and connectors.
l The maximum cable run length (from a workstation to a hub) is 100 m (328 ft).
l Guidelines for operation of a network can be found in "Systems Considerations of Multi-Segment Networks" in the IEEE 802.3 standard.
