Network Card, Connecting a Network Cable

Page 14 highlights

Hardware Setup Network Card Your notebook has an RJ-45 (network) jack, an internal network interface card (NIC), and preinstalled network drivers. Connecting a Network Cable A network cable has an 8-pin RJ-45 network connector at each end and may contain noise suppression circuitry, which prevents interference with TV and radio reception. To connect the network cable: 1. Confirm that the existing network supports Ethernet 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T connections. 2. If the network cable contains noise suppression circuitry 1, plug the circuitry end of the network cable 2 into the RJ-45 jack on the back of the notebook. 3. Plug the other end of the cable 3 into an RJ-45 wall jack. Getting Started 1-9

Your notebook has an RJ-45 (network) jack, an internal network
interface card (NIC), and preinstalled network drivers.
Connecting a Network Cable
A network cable has an 8-pin RJ-45 network connector at each
end and may contain noise suppression circuitry, which prevents
interference with TV and radio reception.
To connect the network cable:
1. Confirm that the existing network supports Ethernet
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T connections.
2. If the network cable contains noise suppression circuitry

into the RJ-45
jack on the back of the notebook.
3. Plug the other end of the cable
3
into an RJ-45 wall jack.
