Figure 2-5: Disconnecting the RJ-45 cable
Warning!
Do not pull on the RJ-45 cable to disconnect the RJ-45 con-
nector from the card. You may damage the RJ-45 connector
pins as well as the Ethernet Card.
After you have disconnected the RJ-45 cable, you can eject the
Ethernet Card from the notebook’s PC Card slot.
In Win 95/98 operating systems, you do not have to
power down the notebook to remove the card. The card
is hot-swappable—you can remove the card when the
notebook is powered on. However, Microsoft recom-
mends that you stop the card. Refer to your Win 95/98
online help for information on stopping the Ethernet Card.
Most notebooks have an eject lever or button for ejecting PC cards
from the PC ports. Consult your notebook’s user’s manual for
details.
Warning!
Do not eject the Ethernet Card when a data transmission is
taking place. Exit your communications program normally,
stop the card if necessary, and then remove the card.
