Connect the Network Cable
1 Connect a single network cable to the PRO/100B TX PCI adapter as
shown below. For 100BASE-TX, your network cable must be four-pair,
category 5, twisted-pair wiring. If you plan on running the adapter at 100
Mbps, it must be connected to a 100BASE-TX hub (not a 100BASE-T4
hub). For 10BASE-T, use two-pair wiring.
Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE).
Use category 5 cable and RJ-45
connector for this adapter. Do not
use category 3 wiring. At 100
Mbps, connect to a TX hub, not a
T4 hub. For full duplex, see
instructions on page 11.
