4 Plug the T-connector into the thin coaxial (10Base-2) port on the Ethernet card in
your Macintosh.
IMPORTANT A thin coaxial network must be terminated at its endpoints to
function. If your computer is the last one in the network, it must have a
terminator installed on the other side of the T-connector. Check the
documentation that came with your network card for more information.
5 Configure your network connection following the advice of your network administrator
and the instructions in “Configuring Your Network Connection” later in this chapter.
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.
