Step 3... Installing Network Card
Note: Network cards are sensitive to static electricity. To protect the card,
avoid touching its electrical components and always touch the metal
chassis of your computer before handling the card.
1. Switch off the computer, unplug the power cord, and remove
the computer's cover.
2. Select an unused PCI bus-master slot and remove its protective
bracket.
3. Carefully insert the card and press until all the edge connectors
are firmly seated inside the slot. Then screw the card's bracket
securely into the PC's chassis.
4. Connect the EZ Card™ Fast Ethernet PCI Card (SMC1255TX-PF)
directly to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX hub or switch using UTP
cable (Category 3, 4, or 5 for 10BASE-T; Category 5 for
100BASE-TX). The maximum allowable length of UTP cable
connections is 100 meters. When inserting an RJ-45 plug, be
sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is
properly seated.
5. Replace the computers cover and power it on. Once the
computer has booted you will be networked.
