Connecting to other types of Ethernet network
The Apple Ethernet AUI Adapter is a universal adapter that lets you connect
your computer to less-common types of industry-standard Ethernet media,
such as thick coaxial or fiber-optic cable. If you are using the Apple Ethernet
AUI Adapter, you also need an Ethernet transceiver for your specific media
type; the transceiver must have a standard AUI port on it.
To connect your computer to an Ethernet transceiver for other types of
Ethernet media, follow these instructions:
1 Shut down your computer.
2 Connect the Ethernet transceiver to the network following the instructions that came
with the transceiver.
3 Plug the transceiver cable from the Ethernet transceiver into the standard AUI port on
the Apple Ethernet AUI Adapter.
