Connecting to a local area network (LAN)

Connecting to a local area network (LAN) requires an 8-pin, RJ-45 network cable (select models only).
If the network cable contains noise suppression circuitry (1), which prevents interference from TV and
radio reception, orient the circuitry end of the cable (2) toward the computer.

To connect the network cable:

1.

Plug the network cable into the network jack (1) on the computer.

2.

Plug the other end of the cable into a network wall jack (2).

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug a modem

or telephone cable into the RJ-45 (network) jack.
