Connecting to the Network

This section describes how to connect 10Mbps or 100Mbps
network cables to the HyperNet PCI 10/100 series adapter. The
backplate of the HyperNet PCI 10/100 series adapter contains
one RJ-45 connector. This adapter can use auto-negotiation to
automatically determine line operating conditions, such as
10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or a corresponding Full-Duplex mode
based on the type of HUB to which it is connected.

For 10Base-T Ethernet networks:

Use Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP cabling.
